TV's better when we join together
| You've heard us talking about the need to meet our membership budget goal by the end of the fiscal year, August 31. Thanks to hundreds of Friends of KSPS who supported us in June, we are down to $365,000 left to raise-- less than 10% of our budget. But that last amount is so important! If you are able, please renew or contribute an extra gift to help us meet this important goal by August 31. Now is the time!

Member # Greetings!
Masterpiece Mystery! returns Sunday night with the third of four new Inspector Lewis episodes. Watch as Lewis and Hathaway venture into the seedier side of Oxford, outside its storied, medieval walls. We learn once again that murder knows no boundaries, especially in the seemingly perfect academic haven of Oxford.
Also on this week's "don't miss list" is the return of Foyle's War to the KSPS schedule. Encore airings of the entire series begin next Thursday evening at 9pm/10mt. And here's some news for all of us Foyle fans - ITV has commissioned 3 new two-hour episodes for broadcast in the UK sometime in 2013. I'll offer more news as it becomes available.
Enjoy everything KSPS has to offer, after all, it's because of YOU!

8pt/9mt - Nova, The Fabric of the Cosmos: Quantum Leap
Join Brian Greene on a wild ride into the weird realm of quantum physics, which governs the universe on the tiniest of scales. Greene brings quantum mechanics to life in a nightclub like no other, where objects pop in and out of existence, and things over here can affect others over there, instantaneously and without anything crossing the space between them.
