'''WSRE''' is the PBS member station for the Northwest Florida and South Alabama, viewing area. The station has been broadcasting since 1967.
The station has recently gone under very significant growth, with the dedication of the new Jean & Paul Amos Performance Studio, and numerous equipment and technical upgrades.
The station's transmitter and production and development facilities are located at the Kugelman Center for Telecommunications on [[Pensacola Junior College]]'s main campus.
==Production Facilities==
WSRE is home to three fully equipped television studios. The largest being WSRE's Studio A, otherwise known as the Jean and Paul Amos Performance Studio. Studio A is an 18,000 sq. foot fully featured television soundstage offering 500 seats of stadium seating, which is retractable to allow for more soundstage space. Studio B also offers all of the technical capability of Studio A, with more moderate floor space designed for live or pre-recorded programming without a live audience. Most of the station's local programming is produced in Studio B, including Open Forum, Connecting the Community, Aware, PJC Today, Legislative Review and formerly Flavors of the Coast. Studio C is a much smaller studio and is almost exclusively used for television programs and segments designed for satellite uplinks. MSNBC's Scarborough Country is frequently produced in Studio C when Joe Scarborough is in Pensacola.
==Digital Programming==
The station's digital channel is multiplexed:

===''Gourmet Cooking''===
WSRE was also the home of the nationally-televised French cooking program, ''Gourmet Cooking'', which was hosted by [[Earl Peyroux]]. The program first went into production as a local program in 1977, going into national public television syndication in 1982, and televised through the early-1990s. At age 78, Peyroux died of unreleased circumstances on October 23, 2003. [http://www.blogofdeath.com/archives/2003_10.html]
