A Message from Executive Producer Marsha Bemko

Dear ROADSHOW fans,
For 29 seasons we’ve been honored to journey with you on our nation’s favorite road trip, ANTIQUES ROADSHOW, taking viewers on a search for America’s hidden treasures. And along the way teaching the history of our families and the world around us through material objects.
Each year ROADSHOW travels throughout the United States, meeting people of all generations, cultures, and from across the political spectrum. What matters to us is what matters to you, honoring the shared stories of our collective history.
But now we need your help, as the future of ANTIQUES ROADSHOW is threatened.
Funding from the federal government has helped bring you ANTIQUES ROADSHOW. Overnight, President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop funding PBS.
The world of education, discovery, and wonder to generations of viewers is available through public television — and that mission of accessible content to all is perhaps more critical today than ever.
If you are inclined to help, please take a moment to visit Protect My Public Media to learn more and, importantly, how you can make your voice heard.
It would be an honor to continue to bring you ROADSHOW for years to come.
In gratitude,
Marsha Bemko
Executive Producer
