In the early to mid-2000s, there was a TV program that featured a group of scholars seated around a roundtable, engaging in discussions on philosophical topics. The moderator would pose a thought-provoking question, and as participants shared their views, the moderator would introduce subtle nuances to deepen the conversation and make the dilemma more complex.
The show seemed to be a rerun then as the quality and fashion was very outdated. I’d love to watch this show with my now teenager but having trouble finding it. For some reason I think it was aired in PBS but I’m not certain. TIA! |

| OP here again - And actually now that I think about it topics were more of ethical dilemmas than philosophical. |

Sorry, missed it. You suspect PBS. PBS in DC or another city? |

Someone from this show died recently. I don't recall the name but my DH mentioned it to me and it brought back 1990s in DC memories... |

Please consider watching the sitcom The Good Place with your kid. It's strangely intellectual and very funny and covers ethics in almost every episode. A bunch of DCUMers have reco'ed it. |
