The daily program is called "Science Frontiers". The weekly focus was
called "Future Fantastic", hosted by Gillian Anderson (Scully on the
X-Files). The episode in question with Max More on Extropians was called
"The Immortals" and aired 10:00 pm EST (and again later at 1:00 am)
Thursday Night 6 March on TLC (the learning channel) here in the US.

I only saw Wednesday's episode on colonizing space, Thursdays episode on
cryonics, nanotechnology, Extropy, Up-Loading, , and Fridays episode on
meeting other life in the universe. My machine ate my tapes. I would love
a copy of the entire series, as well, if anyone comes across them. What I
saw was incredible.

peace, love, and understanding
