We heard you loud and clear. Thanks to the many of you who wrote and asked that we keep Lawrence Welk on the air. We appreciate you taking the time to express your opinion about KTEH.
Because so many of you asked, we will continue to broadcast Lawrence Welk Saturday nights at 7p.m….. Ah-One an Ah-Two…..
We've built a new hub of information to help connect you with the information and resources you need to cope with this complicated issue.

I noticed Doc Martin is coming back. One of the greatest BBC productions ever shown on KTEH. Your trailer (tease) states that Doc Martin will return on August 28th, while the website says September 28th. Could you correct your trailer so people will know when it returns. Thanks

Yes, Doc will be back on 9/28. It looks like you know our schedule better than we do!
thanks for catching that:)

Jeez,
I hate hate hate this program. I am never watching or pledging to KTEH again. How you keep this crappy repeat stuff on your channel and at the same time cancel Eastenders is beyond my comprehension. Do you really think people will pledge because this show is on the air. Well, maybe my 90 year old grandmother would - if she was alive (which she is not)but otherwise - wake up!

Who on earth wants to watch Lawrence Welk in this day and age? Who are your viewers?
It's really hard to believe you've cancelled one of the most popular British programs of all times - East Enders - and continue to show dated boring rubbish like Lawrence Welk.
KTEH it's time to get modern. I think you are seriously in jeopardy in losing many viewers if you keep making these kind of programming decisions.

Absolutely appalling that re-runs of Lawrence Welk shows constitute KTEH's idea of good programming. I can't change the channel fast enough. KTEH programmers, get your heads out of the sand and think about programming that will grow your customer base, not diminish it.

you stab the loyal EastEnders viewers in the 6 million metro SF Bay area IN THE BACK, and then you put this on? and "Quest" or whatever the hell that piece of mediocrity is called? it's not clear whether your mendacity is greater than your stupidity… I hope your station goes BROKE

The only person I've ever known who would willingly watch Lawrence Welk is my deceased for a decade grandmother who would be 106 now. What audience are you really going for?
This post feels like yet another slap in the face to the loyal EE fans. Your responses to us just seem so much like you are talking down to us and trying to shut us up. You realize that making us go away will ensure our pledges stay away?
I made sure to ask when I pledged to KQED radio that it does NOT go to support the tv stations at all.

KTEH and their fascist overlords KQED need to be hit where it hurts: in their pocketbook….let's pray their memberships PLUMMET to HELL, and their fat, overpaid, prematurely balding idiot managers are brought to heel…bring back EastEnders!

I still cannot figure out why Lawerence Welk is on your station! It was corny (without being campy)and tacky when I was a teenager in the 60s-70s, and now that I'm a senior citizen it's just anachronistic. Please get rid of it. The frozen smiles, the hairspray, the baby-blue polyester suits, the Muzak….oh the humanity.

Andie,
Sounds like you've seen one bouffant too many! I venture to guess you are not alone in your opinion of the Lawrence Welk Show.
However; strange as it may seem, Welk has a tremendous and supportive audience.
Try to put the enthusiastic accordion player out of your mind and Please enjoy our many other programs
