Independent Lens on PBS’s COVE

Posted on November 2, 2009

Interested in watching full-length episodes of Independent Lens and your other favorite PBS series online? Look no further—PBS recently launched its new video player: COVE (Comprehensive Online Video Ecosystem). Like the iTunes’ interface, COVE allows users to flip through content horizontally across the screen in a series of stacked images. The player also features a search engine that locates material by topic or program title; “most watched” and “most emailed” video links at the bottom of the screen; and buttons for sharing and e-mailing videos or buying copies on DVD. Select full-length episodes of Independent Lens will be available the day after broadcast for seven days. Other program-related video––such as trailers and video extras––will also be available. JOURNALS OF A WILY SCHOOL, which looks at the life of a young pickpocket in Kolkata, India, is currently available. Visit COVE this Wednesday to watch POWER PATHS, which depicts the struggle Native American tribes and their allies face in producing solar and wind energy.
