The Night Shift

In an increasingly round-the-clock economy, we can have online groceries delivered before breakfast, get a tan at midnight, and drop kids off at a 24-hour daycare. Who works the dawn to dusk jobs that make all this possible? Livelyhood finds out.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT LIVELYHOOD VIDEOS

This off-beat and often uplifting series of specials looks with uncommon humor and grace at a wide-ranging and vivid group of real people.
--The Wall Street Journal

PBS' Livelyhood series is full of hope. One of the most inspiring hours of television this year.
--Aaron Barnhart, The Kansas City Star

I teach high school Home Economics. My program includes career preparation, and in Texas we have a single semester called Family and Career Management. The Working Family Values show is perfect. I wish I had a new class starting tomorrow.
--Sandy Keller, Texas

I caught a couple of the shows--on the work ethic and on employee ownership--and thought they were great. Interesting, entertaining, informative, and provocative, I decided to show them to my classes at UC Davis. They loved them too! Thanks and keep up the good work.

AWESOME Show! ... great production, stories, etc. Just a really unexpected treasure to find on TV. The educational value alone is tremendous. Keep up the great work.
