Issues[edit]

The first paragraph identifies Justin Edwards' character as Phil, but the list of characters shows him as Steve. Which is it?

The reference to the show airing on PBS on Saturday nights is misleading. It is definitely not the case that all PBS stations show this (or any other) show in the same timeslot. My local station runs it weeknights. Canth1 (talk) 16:59, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto canth1 -- PBS is not "networked" in the US; all stations pick and choose their programs independently, and use whatever timeslots they want. Similar to syndication -- rarely will shows sync up across cities.

In this particular case, Boston isn't even carrying it. :(

I went ahead and made the changes. I stuck with the British term "series" although the US uses "season" in this context. 216.50.220.28 (talk) 22:18, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Issue in the 'Reception'-section. The review from "On The Box" is clearly reversed to make it sound positive, whereas the review in question was negative. It can be found here. 83.252.107.130 (talk) 09:59, 12 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
