It became nationally syndicated in January 1993 and now is carried by 215 PBS stations around the country. In addition, Rose has hosted other outside projects, including a special for the Discovery Channel, "One on One With Roger Payne," for which he won a 1992 Emmy Award.

Before launching his PBS program, Rose worked for CBS News (1984-90) as the anchor of Nightwatch, the network's first late-night news broadcast. He won a 1987 Emmy Award for his interview with convicted mass murderer Charles Manson.
