   The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is an American network of   
   broadcasters. Many of its affiliates chose to screen episodes of the   
   1963 version of Doctor Who. Doctor Who has never, however, been   
   carried by the PBS network itself.   
   ...   
   ...   
   It is because of this dynamic that the 1963 version of Doctor Who   
   found its way onto individual PBS stations in the 1970s, why it was   
   able to remain there in most states through the early 1980s, and also   
   why many PBS stations began to shed themselves of Doctor Who in the   
   late 1980s and 1990s.
