PBS KIDS launching in Madison, Wis.

Kids and parents of kids, rejoice: All TDS TV subscribers in the Madison area will soon have the PBS KIDS network on channel 24! Yes, it’s a whole channel devoted—all day, every day—to educational programming for kids and it’s coming on November 20, 2017.

All the popular PBS KIDS shows are here including “Sesame Street,” “Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood,” “Thomas and Friends,” “Dinosaur Train,” “Arthur,” and more. In fact, there are 21 different shows to watch, in addition to PBS KIDS Family Night movie specials or themed programming on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.

You can still find PBS KIDS content on your local public broadcasting channel in the mornings and/or afternoons. But now, thanks to the PBS KIDS channel, your family doesn’t have to wait for certain times of the day to enjoy and learn.

This new channel will appear in the channel line-ups in the following communities: Bagley, Black Earth, Bloomington, Cassville, Cross Plains, Dickeyville, Fennimore, Fitchburg, Lancaster, Middleton, Monroe, New Glarus, Potosi, Sun Prairie, Verona, and Waunakee.

Missy works on the Corporate Communications team and reports stories to TDS employees and customers. This is right up her alley because she’s an extrovert and also a big fan of research (really, she’ll look up just about anything that strikes her interest). Missy is a native of Madison, Wis. with an undergraduate in Anthropology and a master’s degree in Life Sciences Journalism from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her interest in the Internet as a mass media shaped her work towards a PhD in Journalism and Mass Communications. She’s also worked as an editorial assistant, copywriter, and production artist. In her off hours, Missy is a crafter, Pinterest addict, reader, wife, and mom of two kids.
