Howser: Future at KCET uncertain *

KCET mainstay Huell Howser must be getting lots of questions about whether his shows will remain at the station after KCET leaves PBS for independent status at the end of the year. Howser tweets:

Unfortunately at this time we don't have answers to questions about our continued presence on KCET. Send Q's to Al Jerome ajerome@kcet.org

What's to say but holy cow.

* KCET replies: "Huell Howser is independently produced for all public tv stations, so KCET will continue to feature his programs." Hmm, be nice if they would tell Howser.
