Pilots for three different shows were launched on New Year&#8217;s Day via streaming video online and a few days later as weekly broadcasts. It was the first time PBS had introduced full specials online in advance of the television broadcast, giving even more viewers a chance to weigh in on the shows and enter into the dialogue.<\/p>\n<p>It was announced yesterday that WIRED SCIENCE was the viewer favorite and has been picked up for the Fall 2007. The 10-week primetime series &#8220;translates Wired&#8217;s award-winning journalism, design and irreverent attitude into a fast-paced, one-hour weekly television show that will span the globe to chronicle the scientific advances and technologies that are transforming the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;WIRED SCIENCE imports the DNA of Wired Magazine into an exciting new medium for us,&#8221; said Chris Anderson, editor in chief of Wired Magazine. &#8220;We&#8217;re delighted to partner with KCET and PBS, as their viewers and our readers have a lot in common: We&#8217;re all fascinated by the many ways that science and technology are changing the world around us.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Way back in December 2006, PBS tried something a little different in its search for a new science series by asking viewers for input.
