FALL 2023 ANNOUNCEMENTS
PBS recently released its premieres for the Fall season.

And that they are “very proud to bring American viewers the premiere of LITTLE BIRD, an incredibly powerful story that is not only engaging but shines light on ‘The Sixties Scoop,’ a tragic time in history when Native children were forcibly removed from their families by the Canadian government in the 1960s.”

Why You Should Tune In: I plan to tune in for the show’s much-deserved ending! Who will Charlotte end up with at the end?

Where is the FINAL season of Seaside Hotel?? It has been playing in Europe. You have shown over and over all the seasons but the last one for 1945! Ww are all waiting!!!
read that Seaside Hotel Season Nine will be on Masterpiece Prime Video channel on January 13.
Good to know, thanks!
I will have to look into it. PBS didn’t announce it in their press release.
When will St. Maik Season 3 be available on PBS Masterpiece app?
I am trying to find out what happened to Magpie Mysteries and there was another program about a DI and I can’t remember his name. We like most of what is on PBS. It is one of our “go-to channels”.
Love Call the Midwife. Love to watch all time period show.
It really is a wonderful series!
Which shows are continuing later this year? Annika, etc.?
When will seasons 2 and 3 be available of the Italian series “The Good Apprentice “ be available?
Unfortunately, I don’t have that information.
I believe Sanditon has lacking audience because this classic was under finished and we don’t want made up seasons not by the aurhor. Otherwise i love most. Especiallt midwives and All Creatures & Vienna Blood. I have not warmed up to Miss Scarlett actress but like the show and the Duke is handsome. I like Moses and the house keeper and the rookie inspector.
Is there a Season 2 of “All Heart” the Italian hospital drama in Turin in the 19t0’s?
I know there is a second season. But it hasn’t been released yet.
I sure hope there will be additional seasons of All Heart beyond Season 1 as I just watched Season 1 in the past couple days and it left you hanging at the last episode of Season 1 but I’ve not been able to find any information about whether there will be additional seasons and I’ve looked everywhere online.
Would like to see more italian series as a continuation like Paradiso delle Donne. Season 4,5,6,7. Hearts (Cuori) season 1 eposides 9 to 15, 2 and 3. Also any other good series in Italian would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
I love the reviews of why we should watch various shows. I have watched most of them. “Seaside Hotel, Season 9” and “Sanditon 3” were my favorites. Please continue with the upcoming shows!
We definitely will. 🙂 Glad you found the list helpful!
I have been disappointed in the number of repeats of series and member favorites starting in late 2020 and in 2023. Also, even new shows are repeated 2 and 3 times a week, seemingly to just fill the time slots. What has happened to the program line up? I have contributed fora number of years and wonder why this is happening. Love PBS shows, series, etc…
I thought PBS was funded with some government money and public money. Am I wrong? I really hope you can offer more shows in the near future
Will there be a season 3 for Live and Sacrifice?
I think there’s only two.
Any chance of seeing sessions 3 & 4 of Astrid? Such a smart and engaging show. More please!
There are supposed to be 5 seasons of “Love &
Sacrifice”.
When will we see season 3,4, and 5.
It is a beautiful Italian series on Walter Presents.
Thank you.
Lee
Would love to see Vera, Seaside Hotel (Did I miss a few seasons? Who did Amanda marry? Where is Fie? I liked her character. Bertha & Leslie are now adults. What happened in between childhood & becoming adults? How did their father die?). I guess I missed a lot.
Looking forward to Miss Scarlet & the Duke, Annika, Magpies, Ridley, DI Ray, Press, Hotel Portofino & any other new detective or serial type dramas. Well done PBS!!!
Haven’t seen mention of Frankie Drake, Majorca Files, Miss Fisher. Would love to see them again!
Frankie Drake is available on PBS Passport – all the seasons. I don’t think Miss Fisher will likely air on PBS anymore. It’s exclusive to Acorn TV if you want to watch it there!
Is broadchurch returning ?
I think that show’s finished.
When will next episode of Atlantic Crossing Masterpiece: The Attract be shown on PBS??
When Can I watch season 9 of endeavour on PBS master in Canada? You cut us off at 8!
It aired in June 2023 in Canada on PBS Masterpiece.
Bring back Midsummer Murders. Shakespeare and Hathaway, Father Brown, all are great stories and good humor. Doc Matin was awesome but you left out 4 or 5 different series
I should reiterate to everyone that we are only sharing the news on Silver Petticoat. We don’t work for PBS. I recommend contacting PBS with these requests!
I would like you show Jane Austin classic again. Like pride and prejudice, sense and sensibility and persuasion
I agree! That would be great. 🙂
Watched a series but unfortunately forgot the name. Season 1 appeared twice in the last couple of years but did not continue. It was about a widows family unhappy with her new husband. He was pushed over a railing on the 2nd floor of a beach house by his new wife’s son and landed on the sand. He woke up in the hospital, and that ended the series. It never came back. It has been three years but it never came
back. Will it ever?
I want any series with Nicola Walker. Is she in any new series?
I would check out “Annika” and “Marriage.”
