Thanks for the heads' up, trying to set this up for my parents but stuck at step 2 on the PBS.org site, bleh.
It'll be great if season 3 of Sherlock is available like this in January.
Edit: Eh, had to pause Ghostery in order to move to the next step but then the Apple TV activation code was rejected: "Provided activation code not recognized with any device." Augh!
Their network seems to be super-overwhelmed this afternoon. I can barely get anything to play, and it took me multiple tries to get my Apple TV activated. Maybe they underestimated the capacity they would need on day 1.

Was Sherlock on PBS?
I assumed BBC America.
The stuff I watched, they are just clips, not full episodes. Looks like a teaser that's all.
I like how it links to your local PBS station and there is actually a section within the app that allows you to watch locally produced shows. This could be the future of apps for TV networks. If a future ABC/CBS/NBC app were set up similarly, then each network could add streaming of local news, etc. from the local affiliates. If this were to happen, I could see AppleTV service becoming the replacement for cable TV.
Ok, so I'm stumped. Went to the PBS.org/activate site. Entered the code. Then it went to a page saying I had to use a Facebook, Google+, or PBS service. But no idea where I have to do that. Can anyone give me some guidance?
Anyone else think its kind of crappy that you have to sign in with something other than your apple ID? They even say they are going to send you updates. Just what I need, more useless notifications. I immediately hide this channel when I read that. Luckily, I also have a Roku and PBS does not require a sign in to watch on that.
How long did it take you to get the email with the link in it? I signed up for the "newsletter" a few hours ago and haven't gotten anything. Tried signing up again about a half hour ago and haven't got an email yet. I suppose I will get 2 now.I just clicked back to the home page, looked for the log-in box and chose set up new account, clicked on the email link in Mail, then went through the activation stuff all over again. Mind you, i never actually completed the entire activation because their servers were busy I guess, but everything worked on the Apple TV.

That's odd, it was nearly right away. Check your spam folder. Btw, I forgot about this until just now, but are you running Ghostery? I had to pause it on the PBS site in order to get stuff to work (almost) right. Good luck!
