Love this show, especially the setting. It's just the thing to watch when the gale-force ice storm is hitting outside! That's kind of like my mother watching "Dr. Zhivago" in the middle of August here in Texas.Where in Texas? I live in east Texas in the Tyler area.

Been to Canton several times myself for "First Monday". The recession in '08 really hurt it. "The Mill" section almost shut down completely during that time. It's been almost two years since I've been back but last time I was there, it still hadn't recovered.
It looks like KERA is going to start "Death in Paradise" from the beginning this Saturday. It's on the IMDb TV guide but the description is simply that a detective is transferred from London to a small Caribbean island. I'm wondering if they will show a season in between each quarterly fundraiser. It would fit, 8 episodes per season, one month of fundraising. I wouldn't mind, even though I have the DVD's for the first four seasons.
It will be interesting to see what they have this Saturday.

Whaaaaa! PBS isn't starting Death in Paradise tonight. Their showing Rick Stevens gallivanting around Europe. BLAH. Time for NCIS DVD's. Season 11.

A Navy friend lives in Tyler (we were stationed in Beeville together. Poor woman: boot camp in FL and then she gets stationed easy driving distance from home. So much for seeing the world). Talked about going to Palestine to drink because Tyler was dry. A big version of "Footloose".

Athens would have been closer. But I don't think Tyler is dry anymore.

They once ended up in a bar where they saw one of the ministers from her HUGE church - with a woman who was not his wife. He preached hard about keeping alcohol out of Tyler.

Tyler is wet, not sure about Smith County, but I think it is now. I know that you can buy beer and wine in Grocery stores, not before noon on Sundays.

Doc Martin and Death in Paradise are both currently available on Netflix. They are the unedited episodes, as well. Cheers!

And, currently season 5 is re-airing, not season six. Wondering why the local PBS station is doing that. Bummer, I wanted to see something new. Although, season 5 is a good season.

Could be donations are down and they don't have the money to be able to afford it.
