PBS Digital Studios was founded by Jason Seiken in June 2012.[1] They had their first viral hit with a "remix" of autotuned vocals from Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood titled "Garden of Your Mind."[2]
The PBS Digital Studios network has received more than 500 million views and has over 7 million subscribers. Popular series found on their channels include Crash Course , Blank on Blank , It’s Okay To Be Smart , and the multiple Webby Award –winning PBS Idea Channel .[3] Each month, the shows average more than 5 million streams.[4]
Its first scripted series, Frankenstein, MD , launched on August 19, 2014, and ran until October 31, 2014.[5] [6]
In 2015, PBS Digital Studios partnered with the Green brothers ' series Crash Course , commissioning three courses in astronomy, U.S. government, and philosophy.[7] Crash Course Astronomy launched January 15, 2015, Crash Course U.S. Government & Politics launched January 23, 2015, and Crash Course Philosophy launched February 8, 2016.
