Posted on March 8
TONITE IS THE NIGHT!!!

AMERICAN BEER BLOGGER is airing TONITE at 10:00pm and 10:30 pm on PBS 39 WLVT. The more people who call, the more likely we will be able to make more. So please watch and please pledge! Even a dollar is fine... they're just counting heads!

Update #6: WE HAVE A DATE.

Posted on February 28

WE HAVE A DATE. The first PBS airing of American Beer Blogger is going to be on Thursday, March 8th at 10:00 pm on PBS 39 Lehigh Valley. It will then be REPEATED immediately after at 10:30 pm.


More dates, stations and times as they roll in! To make sure American Beer Blogger is aired in YOUR part of the country, call your local PBS station!

Update #5: MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT!

Posted on February 9

Green Leaf Productions and PBS have both come to an EXCLUSIVE DEAL to broadcast the pilot episode of American Beer Blogger during their pledge drives! This means, with each call of support to their station during the airing, they will get an IMMEDIATE response as to how well-received the show in fact was.

Neat, huh?

We couldn't be happier... and we couldn't have done it without you... but Lew still needs your help. How? Easy. WATCH and CALL. That's it. It's that simple. Be it $1 or $100... they will only be counting heads so the money amount DOESN'T MATTER! So, when ABB airs in YOUR areaon YOUR PBS affiliate... let them know YOU WANT MORE AMERICAN BEER BLOGGER and toss 'em a few bucks!

We will keep everyone posted as to the official dates and times!

Update #4: WE DID IT!!!!

Posted on January 30

Thanks goes out to EVERYBODY who helped get us beyond our goal. I'm sure we also speak for Lew in letting everyone know that not a penny will be wasted in the production of this pilot and we will do you all proud!

Keep your eyes peeled for future important developments! The fun has only JUST begun...
