Just an FYI.

 

"BBC Studios has decided to stop distributing the beloved serial drama EastEnders to PBS stations in the U.S."

 

The last air date in my market is Dec 11, 2021.

Sad.  Was it another British murder mystery series?  There's quite a few of those.

It's actually a British soap opera.

@cotton4me   I did not know it was on PBS.  I watch it 4 nights a week on Britbox- always watched this soap since first day it started in U.K.

 

 Main reason I subscribe to Britbox gotta have my Eastenders!   Lol.

I have been watching this show for over 30 years. Even though it was 13 years behind current episodes. I guess I’ll have to sign up on Britbox😕

Re: EastEnders is ending on PBS

It's frustrating that each PBS station has such different programming. Eastenders has never been offered in my market. In fact many prime time programming offered elsewhere never makes it here.

 

My PBS station has four other sub channels. One devoted to child's programming. One devoted to "Create" cooking and crafts, other two are a wasteland. You would think they   could reach an agreement to rebroadcast some of their Masterpieces from the past.
