THIS WEEK IN DOCTOR WHO

The weekly guide to Doctor Who boadcasts worldwide.

Section B - The Public TV stations.

American Public TV http://www.aptonline.org has listed Doctor Who -
The Christmas Invasion as a recommended title to air in the
Christmas/holidays/New Year schedule. American Public TV is the
syndicator of new Doctor Who to public TV stations, and it is always
nice when they highlight the show.

Public TV station programmers will be meeting in Houston to look at
new and existing American Public TV shows and make plans for 2009. If
Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 2007 episodes) is offered to
public TV stations, it will be at that time. If you want your station
to consider adding Doctor Who to their lineup, or encourage them to
keep Doctor Who on the lineup, you should get in touch with your
station (mail, e-mail, very polite phone call - contact options will
be on the station's website). Let them know what shows you watch on
their lineup (obviously if that includes Doctor Who - hopefully you
can name some other shows). Let them know if you pledge money. Let
them know if you're one of the folks with DirecTV or Dish Network
annoyed that their HD signals aren't in the local programming package
yet. Whatever your relationship is to the station, let them know, and
let them know that you appreciate when they air stuff like Doctor Who.

One point that gets forgotten - American Public TV has been able to
get the complete prints* for the Doctor Who episodes so far. SciFi
edits some episodes for time. BBC America edits some episodes for
time (usually less editing - but they slashed the Christmas episodes
when SciFi gave extra time). Reports are that the episodes on iTunes
are the BBC America edits. The only way you can introduce new US fans
to the complete unedited Doctor Who episodes (short of getting them
to pay at least $60 per DVD box set) is on the Public TV stations. It
is worth having these complete versions available, and it will be
better for Doctor Who's future in the US if more stations are airing
them (and getting the financial reward for the money they spend to do
so).

*There is that one scene in The Empty Child where a piece of sound is
missing on all Canadian and US broadcasts (problem with the master
tape). Also, the more stations that buy Series 3, the better the
chance that the programmers who understand the problem will be able
to get the full 51 minute version of Last Of The Time Lords offered
to stations, rather than the 45 minute International Version that is
annoyingly being sold to most broadcasters. To see what the
International Version looks like, BBC America airs it in full - and
it does not stand up well compared to the 51 minute cut.

Series 1 is currently available to public TV stations in a package
until February 28, 2009. Series 2 is currently available to public TV
stations in a package until March 31, 2010. At this time, stations do
not have access to Series 3 and 4.

4 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run (1963-1989). Iowa Public TV is currently airing both Series 2 and Colin Baker episodes. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA and WCET 48 Cincinnati, OH are airing Tom Baker episodes while resting Series 1. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes but apparently does not have New Who Series rights.

Three stations have used all their rights to the Series 1 package - WLVT 39 Allentown, PA, WILL 12 Urbana, IL, and Iowa Public TV. Idaho Public TV is airing a 5th Cycle of Series 1. OETA Oklahoma has used half of their 4th and final cycle of Series 1. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL did not renew Doctor Who. Maryland Public TV is claiming that their rights have expired, though they can still air Series 1 two more times before February 28, and they are not ruling out buying future episodes. If any other stations have non-renewed, they have yet to tell us.

Remember, for the Series 1 and 2 packages, stations have bought the rights to cycle through the episodes 4 times. They are not required to do so. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL is not expected to use their 4th run of Series 1. Other stations may make the same choice for Series 1 as February 28, 2009 comes close. Unless a station admits what they are doing, I'm stuck keeping it here with the most hopeful scenario (the number of times they still *could* air the episodes).
