Oh God Yes. The PBS stations I was getting in New York made mine seem like it didn’t even exist. Doctor Who vs. Lawrence Welk & Doo Wop parade.

When I lived in DC the main thing PBS did to me there was get me fully exposed to Dr Who (3rd and 4th Doctor.)

Also some exposure to the fact that all sides have their share of idiots. The Howard University sponsored station one morning had a couple of “scholars” on going on about how various black cultural things had been suppressed and their inventions stolen. Made me appreciate Conspiracy Brother when he turned up in “Undercover Brother” since he was stereotyping something which did exist.
