The series, which premiered last September, was the second most-watched series on PBS over the last decade (2000 to 2009). It reached a total audience of 33.4 million viewers and sparked the interests of many Americans to travel and visit their national parks. In many areas of the country, the series encouraged community members to share their experiences and promoted conservation and preservation of these treasured public lands.
On Wednesdays beginning Jan. 27 and continuing through March 3, viewers have a second chance to explore the beauty and history of America’s national parks.
