Episodes

Season 1 (1983)

The Joy of Painting aired 403 episodes over 31 seasons, [1] lasting from 1983 to 1994.

The first season of The Joy of Painting was mostly aired on PBS stations across the East Coast, as a result, the initial audience was small. Season 1 was produced at WNVC in Falls Church, Virginia and featured several stylistic differences from the more well-known format that was introduced in Season 2: Ross wore tinted glasses in every episode, there was no opening sequence, light instrumental background music played throughout each episode, and a different theme song, heard only at the end of the episode during closing credits, was used. Ross also had not yet perfected his on-camera persona and some of his hallmarks were not yet present.
