In its original format, the network had often shown programming from abroad, particularly BBC network productions from the United Kingdom. Examples of British programming frequently broadcast on the channel included the documentary "Freud". Its fine arts programming was also phased out; Thursday nights once featured an anthology series called "A&E Stage", hosted by Tammy Grimes and later John Mauceri, which featured telecasts of notable plays, concerts, full-length documentaries related to the arts, and complete operas, although shown with commercials. Such programs as Otto Schenk's 1978 production of "Fidelio", with Leonard Bernstein conducting, were rebroadcast on this anthology, as well as an adaptation of Agatha Christie's "Spider's Web", starring Penelope Keith, originally broadcast in the UK on December 26, 1982. The final fine arts-related show to air on the network, "Breakfast with the Arts", once featured a higher quantity of classical music than in its final years, and fewer interviews. The show was cancelled in July 2007.
