This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
January 24, 2009 - Vol 1, No 4
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott

Canada - BBC Kids http://www.bbckids.ca has put Classic Doctor Who
back on the schedule! In prime time for most Canadians. Weeknights at
10PM and 2AM Eastern (7PM and 11PM Pacific, 11:30PM and 3:30AM
Newfoundland) starting this Monday.

USA - BBC America is moving towards the end of Series 4, with a
marathon of recent episodes on Sunday February 1 (battling the Super
Bowl) and a 46 minute version of the 63 minute Series 4 finale
Journey's End debuting on Saturday February 7.

USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode
2007 series with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed
to Public TV stations by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public
TV. Series 4 also seems to be available to buy - start date for
Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC Worldwide Americas
also distributes classic Doctor Who to the stations that air it.

Update - WGVU 35 Grand Rapids, MI http://www.wgvu.org had an unfortunate technical fault during their premiere of The Runaway Bride this past Thursday. They were unable to finish the episode and put on a Doctor Who Confidential to finish the hour. The episode should run in its entirety today (January 24) at 5PM EST. It is a pity that WGVU had this problem - they are hyping the new Doctor Who episodes heavily on the website. The Runaway Bride is the featured show of the week. They had a combination banner ad for MI-5 and Doctor Who called The British Invasion. WGVU is trying to be one of the good guys.

WTTW 11 Chicago, IL http://www.wttw.com has apparently purchased Series 3 and is expected to air the episodes later this year. Chicago fans may have noticed in the past few years that WTTW airs the episodes a couple of times, then rests the show for a while, then brings it back. The current lack of episodes on WTTW does not mean they have abandoned the show.

Series 1 is currently available to public TV stations in an American
Public TV package until February 28, 2009. American Public TV is not
re-issuing Series 1, so those episodes will be unavailable to public
TV stations after the aforementioned date unless/until BBC Worldwide
Americas decides to offer them. Series 2 is currently available to
public TV stations in an American Public TV package until March 31,
2010. 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.

As we approach the end of the rights, several stations are putting Doctor Who back on the air briefly to burn off Series 1 episodes while they can. NET Nebraska has been airing 3 episodes on Sunday afternoons all January long, and will end with one episode on Sunday February 1. WQLN 54 Erie, PA has been using up Series 1 late Fridays for a while and should finish just before the rights run out. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL is airing 3 episodes on Sunday nights beginning February 1. 2 episodes on KOCE Huntington/Orange County, CA on Saturday January 31 - they will have to air more episodes at a time on future Saturdays to actually finish the series before the rights run out. {c{345=KVPT 18 Fresno, CA is using their final run of Series 1 as a Super Bowl alternative. All 13 episodes on Sunday February 1 - 10:30AM to 8:30PM PST. There is no evidence that any of these mentioned stations have bought Series 2 or will buy future series of Doctor Who at this time - consider this their final farewells.

Meanwhile, advance schedules have made it clear that New Hampshire Public TV, Maryland Public TV (my PBS station - argh), WUFT 5 Gainesville, FL, and Rocky Mountain PBS (Colorado) will not use their remaining Doctor Who rights before the expiration date.

Eight stations have used all their rights to the Series 1 package - WLVT 39 Allentown, PA, WJCT 7 Jacksonville, FL, WILL 12 Urbana, IL, Iowa Public TV, KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT, Idaho Public TV, Wisconsin Public TV, and KLRU 18 Austin, TX. OETA Oklahoma has used half of their 4th and final cycle of Series 1.

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

The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Milwaukee Public TV

In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn
off their analog transmitters at 11:59PM on February 17*, 2009 and go
strictly to digital broadcasting. Cable customers will not see a
difference. Satellite customers who get their local channels on the
satellite service will not see a difference. If your TV gets local
stations over the air and *does* have a digital tuner built in or as
a set top box, you are fine but will want to do a scan on the 18th as
many stations will be moving to new locations to be received better.
If a TV does not have a digital tuner or a box, it will only be able
to get some low power stations that have chosen to stay analog for a
while. For all intents and purposes, the US digital transition that
began in 1997 will finally be over.

*At press time it was expected that the US Senate will vote to move
the transition date to June 12, 2009. Stations would have the option
to turn off analog on February 17, June 12, or any date in between.
The legislation would leave open the option to extend the digital
transition still further if they do not think enough people are ready
to lose analog signals.
