TV shows that may be of interest
From HacDC Wiki
See wiki.hacdc.org/index.php/TV_shows_that_may_be_of_interest_-_weekly for shows that normally air at the same time each week - some are also (i.e., if of particular interest or to give the episode subject or title) included in the list below. Caution: Schedules (along with all other databases) contain errors and are subject to change. Note that this listing only includes broadcast channels, not cable or internet channels. Most of the shows listed are fact rather than fiction; % indicates fiction (i.e., a series episode with a science-related plot). + after the time means the program is rerun later (possibly on a sister station, i.e., a show on channel 26.4 may be rerun on 26.5); check that station's program listing for details. ! = viewer caution, graphic content (not necessarily in every episode) Channel 62 in Frederick & 67 in Baltimore are identical to 22 in Annapolis (including sister stations (i.e., 22.2=62.2=67.2) too). Note that channel 7.3 airs numerous SF movies - check their schedule (select COMET WJLADT3 at wjla.com/station/schedule) for times & titles) Feb. 12 1:10AM+ 22.4 The World Heritage Sites in Japan 1:45+ 22.4 Culture Crossroads - BOSAI: Be Prepared - Volunteer Fire Corps 4 22.2 Richard Bangs' Adventures with Purpose - Costa Rica: Quest for Pura Vida + 26.5 Secrets of the Dead - Graveyard of the Giant Beasts 32 %Astrid - Fermi Paradox 4:15+ 22.4 Direct Talk - Ultrarealistic Metal Creatures: Mitsuta Haruo / Jizai Craftsman 6 22.2 Craft in America - Neighbors 7 9.2 !DR.
