Don't know Dobro? Really? It's Jerry Douglas bro...

POV brings one of my favorite docs...in "Kings of Pastry," 16 chefs whip up the most gorgeous, delectable, gravity-defying concoctions and edge-of-your-seat drama...competing for international acclaim or professional humiliation. Real, real life drama...Saturday 11pm

13-time Grammy winner Jerry Douglas has, frankly, re-invented the dobro with unprecedented speed and haunting lyricism...playing with everyone from Emmylou Harris to Eric Clapton, and from Paul Simon to Elvis Costello and James Taylor, all while working as one of Nashville's most in-demand session players. For me, his ongoing relationship with Alison Krauss & Union Station is the perfect blend of art and soul...don't miss him on BLUEGRASS UNDERGROUND...Sunday at 4pm


What happens when you take what's funny here, and find out it's not funny...in Russia? TV megahit Everybody Loves Raymond creator Phil Rosenthal discusses the (not so) universal language of comedy in his hilarious documentary EXPORTING RAYMOND with KISS KISS BANG BANG writer/director Shane Black...ON STORY Sunday afternoon at 5:30pm 

The second episode of BROADWAY OR BUST is all about Boot Camp...fighting fatigue, the eager performers quickly see what a learn-by-immersion experience is all about - and get an eye-opening look at what life is like on Broadway. As the week moves along and the final auditions loom, the program closes with another round of uncertainty. Participants dig in and launch into last-minute preparations for their auditions. Did boot camp pay off or not? Find out Sunday at 7pm
