KET to Broadcast ‘Commonwealth Curiosities, Vol. 2’

Morehead State University

Morehead State University's Steven Middleton, instructor of mass communication, has created a documentary, “Commonwealth Curiosities: An Ode to Kentucky’s Unique Attractions Volume Two,” which will air on the Kentucky Educational Television (KET) family of networks in July.

In a return to the curious, Commonwealth Curiosities Volume 2 embarks on another adventure around the state of Kentucky. The program showcases not only roadside attractions, but also the people who dedicate their lives to these unique and often overlooked places.

Volume 2 brings to life nine roadside attractions from across the Commonwealth; from an unusually tall historic building, to one man’s Wild West themed hobby. You’ll meet a dog that’s the talk of the town, and revisit your childhood with a museum both young and old can enjoy.

The documentary is an ode to days gone by and the people who make it their mission to keep these attractions alive.

It was co-directed by convergent media student John Tanner Blevins of Paintsville, and help on camera from convergent media student Patrick Brumback, of Owenton, along with MSU’s John Flavel, journalism instructor.

The show will air on KET: July 21, at 3 a.m.; KETKY: July 24, at 1 p.m.; KETKY: July 24, at 7 p.m.; KETKY: July 25, at midnight; KETKY: July 27, at 7 a.m.; KETKY: July 27, at 8 p.m.; KETKY: July 29, at 6 p.m.; KETKY: July 30, at 1 a.m.; KETKY: July 30, at 11 a.m.; KETKY: July 30, at 9 p.m.;  KET2: July 31, at 6 p.m.;  KETKY: Aug. 27, at 4 a.m.; and KETKY: Sept. 1, at 11 p.m.
