Big news for WINDOWS TO THE WILD 🎉 Two episodes have been nominated for New England Regional Emmy® Awards:
- Discover Austria
- Waterways & Wonders
From Austria’s landscapes and cultural landmarks to stories closer to home on New England waterways, these episodes capture what makes WINDOWS TO THE WILD so special—curiosity, adventure, and a real connection to place.
“Discover Austria” also marked Willem Lange’s 90th birthday, making the nomination even more meaningful.
Congratulations to Willem, our producers, and the entire team behind the scenes who bring these stories to life.
And to our viewers—you’re part of this too. Your support makes this work possible. 💙
We’re already at work on a new season of WINDOWS TO THE WILD—and we look forward to sharing digital-first stories this summer, with full episodes to follow this fall.
For more than two decades, WINDOWS TO THE WILD has been a celebration of our connection to the outdoors—and to each other. We’re deeply grateful to the people who make these stories possible, and to the viewers who continue to find meaning in them.
Stay tuned.

Sometimes, a costume drama is the answer—the kind that pulls you into another world with rich stories and stunning visuals. For filmmaker and stylist @chloebarcelou that means getting lost in MARIE ANTOINETTE, SANDITON, and eagerly awaiting MISS AUSTEN.
Lately, she’s been on a PBS binge, mixing in THIS OLD HOUSE and AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN between MASTERPIECE marathons. Who else can relate?.
What’s your latest PBS obsession?

I FOUGHT THE LAW starts with a murder. But what makes it unforgettable is what happened after.
Based on the true story of a mother’s relentless fight for justice after her daughter’s murder, the series follows the case that helped change Britain’s double jeopardy law forever.
If you’re the kind of person who watches documentaries, listens to true crime podcasts, pauses a show to Google the real case, or immediately texts someone “you need to watch this” … this one’s for you.
Stream I FOUGHT THE LAW now on the PBS App. Then come back and tell us:
What’s the most unforgettable true-crime series you’ve ever watched?

For years, Rebecca Rule has shared stories on NHPBS as the beloved host of OUR HOMETOWN — bringing humor, heart, and humanity to our viewers and making New Hampshire feel a little more connected.
A humorist, storyteller, and author, Becky brought that same warmth and wit to the commencement stage as a featured speaker for the UNH Graduate School ceremony — encouraging graduates to embrace connection, commit to their passions, and “make it a good story.”
We’re so proud of Becky and this well-deserved honor. And we wish the UNH Graduate School Class of 2026 the very best as you create new stories of your own. 🩵
