PBS wishlist

Oooh, the Masterpiece Theatre series of Jane Austen's books started off great last night! Persuasion was enjoyable, and I can't wait to watch the other 5 episodes. Someday I hope to own all 6 dvds.
With that thought in mind, I wandered over to the PBS shop online, sure that I would be greatly disappointed in the prices. However, I was happy to find that the prices are quite average. Perhaps I can slowly but surely purchase the set.
Another PBS series we enjoy is Secrets of the Dead. One of the best - Catastrophe. The theory is that the dark ages were caused by an immense volcanic eruption. Quite interesting, worth the time to watch. Other good episodes? Salem witch trials and the flu epidemic. Perhaps your library carries them...
