March Update
Sundays at 4:30pm – Starting March 1st
The Electric Company
Like the original "The Electric Company," the new "The Electric Company" draws from pop culture --- music, comedy, technology and celebrities --- to create a playful, hip, multi-media experience. The series includes many modular elements -- sketches, animations and songs -- that will serve a scaffolded phonics curriculum that extends beyond decoding and connected text to reflect new insights into how best to help struggling readers.
Replaces Seemore’s Playhouse
Sundays at 7pm – Starting March 1st
Thursdays at 1pm – Starting March 5th
The Lion Man
New Zealander Craig Busch is The Lion Man. He loves lions so much he has created Zion Wildlife Gardens as a paradise in their honor. At the sanctuary, Craig cares for many of the world's most endangered big cat species. The Lion Man follows the joys and frustrations of Craig and his partner Karen, as they rear and interact with the cats in a very up close and personal manner. There are triumphs and disasters, laughter and tears as the pack gradually expands. Craig also visits other continents to search out new cats for Zion. In between, he trains his cats for commercials and television
