We've been watching. They've been great IMO. It's hard to get into a lot of depth on such big events given the time restraints but I've seen some footage during some of these for the first time.

Watched the one on the civil rights movement last night. I never knew the circumstances around the Bull Connor fire hose stuff. The movement had lost a lot of momentum at that point but the tv broadcasts caught everybody's attention and reinvigorated things.

Overall, it's been eye opening how important television was to change in the sixties.
