I just hope that somehow somebody outside the echo-chamber of PBS
got Ken Burn’s attention by saying:

1. This had better be as good or better than you Civil War series.

2. You’re going to have to sweat this one in order to redeem your
reputation after those snoozers you did on “Jazz” and “Baseball”.
(OK, that’s just VOA’s fallible personal opinion)

3. If you don’t get at least one commentating historian as awesome as
Shelby Foote, you will be in deep doo-doo.
(And no, you can’t use Shelby Foote because, as we say down South,
he has passed.)

I will watch until Doris Kearns Goodwin appears on screen. At that point, I will turn the channel. How can this woman be an expert on everything? I am afraid to turn on the TV lest she turn up on Project Runway, Top Chef, one of the many informercials hawking the George Foreman family of Grills, What not to wear, Decorating Cents, Clean House, NASCAR or the PGA. She must be stopped!
