WILLIAMSTOWN, W.Va. (AP) -- Fenton Art Glass of Williamstown is being featured on the Discovery Channel show "Dirty Jobs."
The episode airs 9 p.m. Tuesday.
Host Mike Rowe visited the plant last year, when Fenton employees were trying to find ways to help their financially struggling company survive.
Though it was on the brink of bankruptcy two years ago, Fenton is still in business. Today, it employs about 125 people.
President George Fenton says sales are strong, and the company is producing fewer colors at any one time to reduce its energy costs.
Fenton says the company has also agreed to make select pieces for Rowe's own Web site, called MikeroweWORKS.com.
Among them is a black T-shirt with a Rowe catchphrase, "Get ready to get dirty."
