It was on in the background and knew nothing about it but after about 15 minutes had I had to change the channel because the narrator’s and voice verbiage was intolerable.

No but I watched an episode of the original Star Trek in which Lincoln appears floating in space and ends up helping Kirk and crew defeat a bunch of bad guys, including Genghis Kahn on some planet.

It’s pretty good. Aside from History’s infatuation with Obama, who is in this, and Clinton, who’s getting a series and was in the Washington one, I’m enjoying it and their docuseries are quite well done. They of course would never include Trump in their documentaries, so that leaves Bush to participate, and I don’t want to,see him.

Before the War Between the States, it was the United States ARE...

After Mr. Lincoln’s War, it was the United States IS....

We’re bearing the fruits of that totally unnecessary war in 2022.

I found it entertaining. I thought it was going to be so bad it was good, but I actually enjoyed it.

Imagine someone attempting to release Blazing Saddles today.
I’m not old, by FR standards, but I prefer music/shows/movies from my childhood times.

If Lincoln was willing to let slavery expand to new territories, he probably could have saved the Union too.

But he was absolutely 100% opposed to that.

I took a long time to appreciate musicals on the screen.

Here is one I’d like to see made.

Arrested Development was fantastic.

Here’s some Philly musical...

From It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
It’s Similar to Arrested Development in that everyone is a terrible or dysfunctional human.

I saw Obama in the promo. I didn’t watch for that reason, too.

Geez

Yes, that was on the other week.

Loved the statement about “charming negress”! Wokesters won’t like Uhuru’s comment at all!

I remember that “Grant” and “Washington” were on History, but I was part-watching the Daytona 500 on FOX Sports, until I fell asleep.

I subscribe to a streaming service that has Stat Trek and I sometimes binge watch it.
