        It’s been on since last Sunday, 2 hours every night starting at 7:00 and an encore presentation at 9:00. I’ve missed a couple but all the ones I’ve caught were great, tonight’s in particular!

          We've watched every episode. It's been a great documentary.

            They got the "history" part correct.. What they call country today is far from it..

              We recorded it and are watching it as time permits. We're only into the second segment, but have really enjoyed it. The series that Ken Burns did on baseball is awesome too.

                This series will wind up in the Smithsonian, well researched and beautifully presented.

                    My guess is that he didn't confer with any of us here on the green screen, so I doubt that any of us have an answer for you.

                    I do agree with you that much of what is presented as "Country Music" today, is anything but country music, and is something I can't spend much time listening to.

                      It is supposed to conclude with the year 1996, no idea why they chose that year. Also you can stream the previous episodes on PBS's website.

                          I'm not much of a country fan and it was on, and I was blown away. Really awesome. I am gonna try and stream the previous episodes.
