"When we left Earth" on Discovery

[docmirror]

I've been watching it and have several recorded. Nicely done with many, many of the original cast of players taking part. I met Gene Kranz a few times, and we had dinner a few months back. He's featured in the Gemini and Apollo series of course. What a guy, and what great stories.

If you get Discovery, it's several segments, and so far, not a lot of high excitement, but still very interesting.

It is good, but Discovery tries to wreck it with lengthy and frequent commercial breaks. Each hour-long segment is about 42 minutes without the ads.

well i suppose that when UNICEF gets in the cable TV documentary biz it'll be better. all the more reason to go out and buy the DVD afterwards i suppose.

I've been recording it on the DVR. The little bit I've seen thus far is excellent.

And, ditto on the commercials... I'd pay more were I able to watch more junk commercial free. This cable box DVR will not accommodate a jump-type fast-forward like my HP Media Center box will.
