It's called "Madhur Jaffrey's > Indian Cooking" and is aired at 10:30 a.m. on Saturdays on Channel > 9 in the San Francisco Bay area. Look up your local listings for > the time it is aired in your area. If the local station doesn't carry this program, then calling the station and talking to the program director about this program (its value and its audience) may help to get it on the local station. I found PBS stations very 'friendly' since they get much of their funding from the viewers of their programs. I don't know how Canadian [CBC] or British [BBC] stations take to 'suggestions.' To those trying to 'influence' their local station into taking on this show, knowing who (which PBS station(s)) produced it may help in 'locating' it. Since I'm not in the S.F. area, I'm not aware of the show's producers. With this show, will Madhur Jaffrey become the 'Julia Child' of Indian Cooking? How does her cookbooks compare to those of any other author of Indian cookbooks (in being able to get the results with whatever instructions that are given in the book)? Any good cookbooks on Indian regional dishes? Sunil Trivedi P.O.
