@lcubedsudbury - PBS is free to everyone. PBS Passport is an added benefit for donors. I've never heard of it being free anywhere.
It's not the same thing - as least where I am in New England.
(BTW, my Evergreen membership doesn't just include Passport. It also has a lot of additional benefits, like deals at restaurants, attractions, etc.. Those things would likely vary depending upon location.)

i dont give anywhere near that much and it is "free" with my yearly donation.
i think it really depends on your local pbs station.

I donate to PBS 15 a month, and I get passport. Love the shows. But I don't watch it all the time. But I can claim the money I donate at end of year so it is a win win situation. I do agree they are hard to get hold of.

@shoekitty - That's what I do, too. I started giving $15 a month years ago; where I am it's called being an Evergreen Member. At the time I signed up, it gave us access to Passport and a number of other benefits.
I have no idea how it works in other areas of the country (I'm in New England). We don't bother to claim it as a credit on our taxes, but I should get DH to look at that, as we have monthly donations to other organizations, too.

Shoekitty said, yes, I have done for years as well it's a win, win situation. I love shows like Miss Scarlet, murder club and many others. And of course Call the Midwife, I have Britbox, but can't watch that on Brit box Weird.
