Premieres September 19, 2021


It will be shown on PBS in the U.S. Another Ken Burns production which should be interesting.

I definitely want to watch this one. Some of the Ken Burns I haven't been very excited about, like the Jazz special, or the Country Music special. This one peaks my interest, however. As usual, I'm anticipating spectacular photographs.

reply

In addition to the photographs, there should be a lot of historic film footage, too.

You called it. I've really enjoyed the film footage of the fights. I'm not watching the last two episodes though, because I'll be purchasing this series, so I want to save something for later. I was totally riveted by the first half.

I’m no fan of country music (cannot bear it) but the documentary series is really excellent. It’s a historical walk through the 20th century. My husband and I were glued to the screen and binged the entire lengthy series in 3 evenings.

Did you see the Ken Burns black space program? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq7gkQ7UkzI&t=9s
