WCFE-TV is a Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) public television station in Plattsburgh, New York. It is known under an identity of Mountain Lake PBS. This name was adopted to reflect Plattsburgh's location between the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain. It broadcasts on channel 38 from transmitters on top of Lyon Mountain, between Plattsburgh and nearby Malone. WCFE-TV's over-the-air coverage reaches many communities in Northeastern New York, Eastern Ontario (including Cornwall and parts of Ottawa), Vermont, and Southern Quebec (including Montreal). WCFE-TV's signal is also carried in Quebec City and most of the Gaspé Peninsula and Saguenay on cable.
On cable, WCFE-TV can be seen on Comcast Burlington channel 14 and Charter Plattsburgh channel 7. On Vidéotron, it can be seen on channel 24 in west Montreal, channel 40 in central and east Montreal, and channel 50 on Illico digital cable.
Its studios and offices are located at One Sesame Street in Plattsburgh.
WCFE-TV signed on in March 1977 from studios at SUNY Plattsburgh. In 1993, it rebranded itself as "Mountain Lake PBS" to reflect its growing viewership.
Do you feel like a chain store
Practically floored
One of many zeros
Kicked around bored
Your ears are full but you're empty
Holding out your heart
To people who never really
Care how you are
So give me coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm going blind
And I'm brain dead, virtually
Sociability is hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start over again
Do you go to the country
It isn't very far
There's people there who will hurt you
Cause of who you are
Your ears are full of their language
There's wisdom there, you're sure
Till the words start slurring
And you can't find the door
So give me coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm going blind
And I'm brain dead, virtually
Sociability is hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start over again
So give me coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm going blind
And I'm brain dead, virtually
Sociability is hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start over again
Oh, we can start over again
Oh, we can start over again
Oh, we can start over again
