Which means alot of upcoming new Welk episodes will be pre-empted for special fund-raising programs and repeats.....double nuts.
And I just checked my local PBS station's schedule, they just did an about-face and will not air "Salute To Johnny Mercer" this Saturday.....triple nuts!
I know that funds from such drives like these are the lifeblood for any PBS station in America (I know because I've pledged my fair share every month, considering I do not make a ton of money), but that does not mean the station should give upcoming new Welk episodes the heave-ho.
I mean, is there really any incentive to give more $$$ if they continue this policy?
Just air the new shows as scheduled....and then you can air the Welk-related pledge specials afterwards, that's what I would do!
And Mary Lou Metzger would agree with that logic!
