Cat Stevens Schmevens

If PBS was on life-support, it's now dead based on this listing:

Cat Stevens: Majikat PBS 28 Mar 18 09:30pm Add to My Calendar
Special/Music, 30 Mins. The concert recorded on Cat Stevens' Majikat North American tour in 1976 in Williamsburg, Va.
Original Airdate: March 5, 2005.


Am I missing something? Is there a groundswell of love for Cat Stevens these days? Is a revival afoot? Why do we need to view his 1976 Majikat (the name alone makes me shudder, shudder) concert twice in one month? Why does PBS persist in thinking viewers care about this crap? Seriously Pom Pom, who is their audience? Perhaps it's a closed circle, they air what they want to watch and the public be damned.
