I was just on a History Channel message board (hugely difficult site to navigate) and I was reading posts about the TV show, "History of Us", which are for the most part, negative. I agree with many of these comments, things left out, celebrities commenting, and things like that, but, I must say, I'm happy to see such a show. The one thing this show is good for is curiosity. It helps to generate an interest in history no matter how cheesey it is. I mean seriously, do you remember how YOU got interested in history? I started out reading biographies in 4th grade. Yeah, they were basically perpetuations of myths, but I was in. I just wonder why people expect a grad level TELEVISION program from the History Channel. It's a great show to get people interested in history.
Just curious, what got people interested in history and maybe an opinion on this show if any watched it.
