Martin Ellingham and his wife Louisa are finally living together again with their son James Henry, but their problems are far from over . With Louisa’s encouragement, James Henry has grown attached to Buddy the dog, but Martin is disgusted by the four-legged friend . In need of a new nanny, Louisa finds herself juggling too many responsibilities and considers switching careers . Can Martin cope with all the changes — or will he risk the fragile accord he’s forged with his family? Saturdays at 8 pm On Perfect 36 Of all the battles waged on Nashville’s doorstep, the final throes for the passage of the 19th Amendment were among the most heated, controversial, and colorful . In July of 1920, all eyes were on the Tennessee capital as anti- and pro-suffragists each fought for their vision of a socially evolving United States . See the dramatic vote to ratify this amendment, and the years of debate about women’s suffrage that preceded it . Friday, January 11 at 3, 6 & 11:30 pm Courtesy Pretzel Pictures On Kevin Belton’s New Orleans Kitchen Chef Kevin Belton explores the wide mix of cultures that contribute to the distinctive food of New Orleans — delving into the city’s diverse culinary influences, including Cuban and Vietnamese cuisine . Explore the food of the city, from fried oyster po-boy sandwiches with blue cheese and buffalo sauce and Creole brined chicken with collards and yams, to duck and andouille gumbo with potato salad . Kevin emphasizes ingredients available in the pantry . Sunday–Friday at 3:30 & 6:30 pm 3 Members’ Message HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Mark Stanislawski As we enter 2019, I have been reflecting on our past year’s accomplishments, as well as what I want to see for our station in the coming months . We had an exciting 2018, but I sincerely believe the best is yet to come . We continue to work hard to bring you programming from quality sources around the world, and we have big plans for 2019 . In December, we upgraded our translator equipment as part of the federally mandated television channel repack . This meant that we stopped transmitting on channel 42, and are now using channel 34 for our over- the-air broadcast in the Rogue Valley area . It also meant we upgraded our equipment to have more transmission power . During the switchover, we experienced unforeseeable problems, and we want to thank all of you for remaining patient during those issues . While this process was an inconvenience for a short time, just know it actually improved our broadcasting capabilities to continue meeting the needs of our members . Moving forward, we have some exciting new programming . This month we premiere the much-anticipated Season 3 of Victoria on Masterpiece . If you haven’t seen the first two seasons, they are available on PBS Passport . We are also re-airing Season 2 this month as we lead up to the Season 3 premiere, Sunday, Jan . 13 at 9 p .m . In addition to Victoria, we have new episodes of NOVA, Nature, Finding Your Roots, Shakespeare & Hathaway, and Antiques Roadshow coming up this month . I am also happy to say that we have a new Jeffersonian scheduled Monday, Jan . 14 at 9 p .m . (Students at Southern Oregon University produce The Jeffersonian .) Again, if you haven’t seen earlier episodes of The Jeffersonian, make sure to check them out on Passport or on our website at www .soptv .org/Jeffersonian . As always, I would like to thank all of our members for your continued support . Our work could not be done without your help . Thank you from everyone at the station . I hope this new year brings you health and prosperity .
