PBS’ e2 Design series will be returning for a third season, once again narrated by the illustrious architect-wannabe Brad Pitt. From the Kontentreal, the producers:

Season 3 of e2 design comprises six episodes: a profile of Aga Khan’s Al-Azhar Park in Cairo, a 500-year-old dump-turned-“urban lung”; Canadian architect Brian MacKay-Lyons, who applies Nova Scotia’s design pragmatism to projects around the world; Melbourne’s transformation from a tired,
vacant city into a thriving, sustainable metropolis; the inspired efforts of world-class architect Renzo Piano to integrate the natural world into his design for San Francisco’s elegant, environmentally responsive natural history museum; the efforts to rebuild New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward in a way that is environmentally, culturally and socially sustainable; and the visionary Amsterdam architects transforming recycled materials into modern design masterpieces.

Tune in online to preview the Season 3 episodes of e2 design; episodes will
be streamed online for one week from debut dates. Schedule follows:

o       August 22, 2008 “New Orleans: The Water Line”
o       August 29, 2008 “The Art & Science of Renzo Piano”
o       September 9, 2008       “Melbourne Reborn”
o       September 12, 2008      Amsterdam “Super Use”
o       September 19, 2008      “A Garden in Cairo”
o       September 26, 2008      Nova Scotia “The Village Architect”

Seems like an exciting and interesting lineup [I got to check out the previews of each episode on the site’s ‘pres’ section, and the episodes look pretty good].

There will also be a new series introduced [much like e2: energy from last year], entitled e2 Transport:

The six e2 transport episodes explore: the transformation of London into a transit-efficient capital thanks to visionary mayoral leadership; Paris’ ambitious public-private Vélib’ bike initiative, which encourages residents to forgo cars for bikes and public transportation; the potential for local food production to lessen the environmental impact of the global food market and – as renowned author Michael Pollan elaborates – build healthier, more sustainable communities; the effort to reduce traffic and pollution in Seoul, Korea by restoring the Chonggyecheon Stream as a center of public life; Portland as a global model of transit-oriented development and urban “livability”; and the unique strides being made by aerospace corporations, technology firms and governments to make the aviation industry more efficient.

Don’t sleep! PBS is free, just find a TV. That, and all the episodes will be online at some point too – expect to see some here as the ycome out.
