No one does more to appeal to the wide-ranging interests of today's viewer than PBS. While commercial networks have brief hobby segments on their early-morning or daily talk shows, Lakeshore Public Television and PBS dedicate entire broadcasts to the pasttimes our audience members love.
The Lakeshore Public Television weekday and Saturday schedule is packed with lifestyle broadcasts. Whatever you do, Lakeshore Public Television has a show for you.
If you love to…
Cook
Every weekday starting at 10:30am we bring viewers two great half-hour cooking shows, different programs each day. The chef-hosts are passionate about food, and while showing you how to prepare dishes, they entertain and teach—giving a food's history, tracing a recipe's origins, or offering serving tips. On Saturday's beginning at 12:30am, Lakeshore Public Television gives viewers more of the cooking shows they hunger for.
Do-It-Yourself
Each weekday at 11:30am and 2:30pm Lakeshore Public Television presents unique programs that give do-it-yourself types tips and tools for building and gardening. From the Victory Garden to the Woodwright's Shop, and all places in between, we bring fresh information and inspiring ideas to DIY'ers.
Sew
Homecrafters will find unique ideas and inspiration weekdays at 1pm. Two half-hour shows covering sewing, quilting, and other needle arts air each weekday. These programs introduce viewers to new techniques from expert crafters.
Paint
Whether audience members are learning to paint or simply like watching a masterpiece being created before their eyes, weekdays at 2pm is the time to see talented artisans teaching painting to novices and veterans alike.
Over the years of airing quality lifestyle programming, Lakeshore Public Television has caught on to an interesting little secret. People who do not like to cook still enjoy watching Chris Kimball and the cooks of America's Test Kitchen. Folks who will never put sandpaper to wood love Norm Abram and New Yankee Workshop, while those who have never planted a single bulb tune in every week for Victory Garden. PBS viewers like intelligent programming that offers them a window into a world unlike their own. Sure, we could give our audience back-to-back drama and comedy, and during some parts of the day we do, but we also know that sometimes entertainment takes unusual forms, like watching a contractor, a carpenter, a plumber, and a landscaper spend a season making over This Old House.
