Default New show on PBS, P. Allen Smith?

What I don't understand is how they think these generic shows will fit anywhere
but California, Atlanta or Canada. I know those are highly populated regions,
but there's a whole continent North America!

I'd love if they would have shows more specific for more selections of zones and
regions.

I don't mind the make-over garden shows, but when you hear, "she only has a
$20,000 dollar budget..." I want to puke. Shit, if I spent that much in my
backyard I'd have the Taj Mahal! It always seems that what these people get for
their money is sparse, at best.

I'm glad I'm a gardener and still young enough to do a lot of the work, myself.

Gardener's Journal and Gardener's Diary were also my favorite shows. Back
when HGTV first started it had a lot of garden shows but then they seemed to
be entirely taken over by southern tacky decoration and crafts shows. Now I
rarely find either showing when I can watch them. DKat

So I stick to Gardening by the yard when I remember it's airing early.
Gardener's Diary which is my absolute favorite now, and keep hoping they
bring back Gardener's Journal which was the Canadian show that was

awesome
too. That one kinda slipped away last year on HGTV.


Gardener's Diary is my favorite too, and has been for some time. I missed

it
last weekend because I hadn't noticed the time change but got it yesterday

(I
always tape it and watch it later). Gardener's Journal is now being shown

at 7
AM Monday through Friday. They're all repeats I think, but it's nice to

have
the program available again.
