Great show to fall asleep to on PBS. Premise is someone has an obscure artifact having to do with American history. The "detective" then traces down its origin and its meaning in American history. Very well done show and sets a great tone. Plus, I don't know about you (who?) but I always feel more pure when I watch PBS. It's almost as if I don't feel as bad for watching TV because it's educational. Good show. As a side note, I just enjoy the overall unhyped tone of PBS. The low budget, perpetually nighttime feel of the channel is perfect for bedtime, though its stimualting nature can keep you awake. I'm purposefully not injecting irony and cynicism into this entry as I've got to vary up the format of the blog.
There is nothing funny about the above paragraph. (odd guy always has to have a self-aware, self-effacing comment at the end of each entry. why? just write the entry and be comfortable with it. o well.)
