I sorta agree with most of the post there except for the comment about Modern Marvels. I happen to think that show is highly educational. It's the only show on TV that can take things like the baggage carousel at Denver International or the career of lumberjacking look somewhat interesting. The thing I can't stand on the History Channel is that "Pimp my Ride" wannabe show. What does that have to do with History, exactly?
That's why I hope a channel like PBS never dies. Educational cable channels rely on advertisers, which means that they're prone to ratings like any other channel. If it's educational but no one's interested, they'll never air it.
