This is what I watch regularly Strong Medicine which is based on a real
clinic in South Philadelphia, Stargate SG1 and Atlantis, Discovery Channel,
History Channel, BBC America (loved watching Changing Rooms for Lawrence.),
and for the kids there is Dora the Explorer, The Wiggles, Sesame Street,
Stanley, Play With Me Sesame, BoohBah, Blue's Clues, and a few others.

I don't know if they show it in the US but Lawrence briefly did a show with
an Irish gardener called Diarmed (which I can't spell and I can't remembe
his surname either) where he did the house makeover and Diarmed did the
garden (well duh!) and I found a whole new appreciation for Lawrence. I had
been of the opinion that I wouldn't let him within ten miles of my home even
if you were paying me (nothing about him as a person you understand, but
there's only so much purple a girl can take. hmmm, perhaps he should be let
loose on Lex Luthor's castle ....). But on the show we got to see him
working with a client the way he would as  a professional designer rather
than just as an 'expert' on a tv show and he was much better at following
their requirements whereas Diarmed would simply get irritated if the clients
 needs clashed with his grand design, Lawrence would just get on with it and
point ouot that they were working for the client not the other way around.
Plus experience shows me that when you get a house with antique fireplaces
or wooden floors or whatever we can trust Lawrence not to rip them out and
make everything modern and shiny (one of the others actually did this with a
very old absolutely gorgeous poliched wood floor, replaced it with metal
tiles)
