To me this begs the question worth considering of which I will ask not judging what is right or wrong, but keep the conversation exploring.
1) I think most people I know don't watch PBS not to much because it's above their understanding, but they would rather not learn watching TV to relax.
a) But a corollary to that is how often I point out to different people that PBS has shows that are solely entertainment, and even have them ask me to remind them when they are on. One the most common shows of this type are the music shows. But a lot of people get hooked on Nature. Not so much anymore but a decade or two ago, it was the best place to find British comedy.
b) The Create Channel now has my son watching (a chief) watching PBS that was solely was a Food Network fan finding Create fills a lot of gaps in cooking that shown on Food Network that is often more entertainment than content on how to cook.
