More variety of independent films and documentaries.

The first thing I thought of was to guarantee that Frontline stays and put Democracy Now on; apparently everyone else here was thinking the same thing. I would love to see a wider variety of independent films (not just drama) and documentaries on PBS. I really don't care much about British dramas or antiques. I never watch shows about the high arts, but I am somewhat reassured to know that they have a home on public television.

It would be great if PBS would put more of its shows online or have a cable "on-demand" channel, because I miss most of PBS's great shows when I'm not in front of my TV watching PBS, at just the right time. The schedules give a really narrow window of opportunity to view or present a program. I only watch the occasional parts of Frontline on the original broadcasts, since I don't plan my life around the TV schedule, but I do get to see it online at my convenience.
