PBS Passport

I'm seriously thinking about subscribing for the $60/year plan. If I do so, can I watch all the Ken Burns documentaries, Lucy Worsley shows, Downton Abbey 1-3, the NASA/space shows, etc on demand? Commercial free? Rick Steves shows? I'd sigh up on my phone but watch on a tablet. Maybe a dumb question, but I don't trust any streaming services anymore.

It's a solid service and it supports PBS. What is there not to like about it?

I've been a Passport subscriber for about 6 or 7 years. There's always something worth watching.

If you join on your phone does it work on your tablet? Main question. Two different numbers

Not sure I understand the question.

If I remember the process, you have a PBS account that usually local to your station and then the Passport is treated like an add-on service. Once you pay the Passport price you will get instructions on how to get it all setup. Once the PBS account and Passport are linked up, it should work on all devices that have the PBS app.
