Name: Bill Endter
Comment: Watched your 30th year special on MPT on December 30. It was terrific. Will get my donation out to PBS.



Name: Charles
Comment: I have been a viewer since I was a child; I am 35 now and I watch with my children. My all-time favorite [show] aired in the '80s, it was "The Gospel at Colonus" starring Morgan Freeman. I wish that you could air it again.



Name: Early McGee
Comment: A rebroadcast of "The Gospel at Colonus" would be wonderful during the holiday season. I can't find it on tape. The show was so beautiful and Morgan Freeman was early in his career.



Name: Deidre
Comment: Bring on more Broadway! I've been watching PBS closely for about five years, ever since I caught "Crazy for You"! For me, there's nothing more thrilling than viewing such productions as if I was sitting in the front row of the theater where and when it was performed. I have unfortunately missed "Sweeney Todd" (w/Angela Lansbury), "Kiss Me, Kate," and the 30th anniversary GREAT PERFORMANCES. I'd love to purchase the DVDs to add to my library. My 10-year-old daughter has been so inspired by PBS' programming, specifically the Broadway hits, she wants to someday sing and dance on Broadway! At this day and age, steering your own children down the right path can be a challenge. Thank you PBS, for inspiring my Broadway baby!



Name: Debbie Brotherton
Comment: I have always enjoyed Broadway shows and concerts by famous performers. Since sometimes they are coming to me through PBS from New York City, London, England, etc. It is wonderful to see these shows in my own home. Also being deaf, I appreciate the fact that PBS has closed caption on these programs. Happy 30th Anniversary! Please continue to bring these programs to PBS in the future. Thank you!



Name: Andrew
Comment: Please re-air "Crazy for You"!



Name: Marsha Williams
Comment: Please re-air "The Gospel at Colonus" with Morgan Freeman. I remember watching it with my children when they were young and I would like to share it with the youth I work with now. What a moving experience! I have purchased the CD, but what I really want is a DVD of the entire play. This is truly a great performance and deserves another viewing as well as a release for purchase! I add my plea to the others ... please, please, please bring back this GREAT PERFORMANCE!



Name: Graciela
Comment: Please replay the concert of Alessandro Safina, "Only You."



Name: M. Miller
Comment: Even a year later, I can't forget the wonderful GREAT PERFORMANCES production of "The Merry Widow." It is a performance that could easily become a holiday classic. Yet will not be because it is not available on video/DVD. Such a performance could serve as a wonderful fundraiser for both PBS and the San Francisco Opera company! Performances such as this are the reason we turn to PBS and support it!



Name: Charles Friedlander
Comment: I would love to see a rebroadcast of "The Gospel at Colonus" featuring the great Blind Boys of Alabama.



Name: Martin Hanson
Comment: I have enjoyed all the concerts I was able to record on my VCR. I am just now viewing the concert from Palermo. All of your programs are prized by me, and I record every one that I know about for one-time viewing. I do not keep them or use them commercially in any way.



Name: Joe Clarke
Comment: I also would like to see a rebroadcast of "The Gospel at Colonus." It is a magnificent production, unique in its blending of Greek tragedy with the African-American experience.



Name: Debbie
Comment: I would love to see "Josh Groban in Concert" again. I was changing channels when I happened to catch his show and I was mesmerized by his beautiful, powerful voice. I had to buy his CDs and video. He is outstanding!! Please show him again.
