SUNDAY NIGHTS: I LOVE PBS

For years I've had a Sunday night ritual.  Come home after a meeting, fix dinner and watch Masterpiece Theatre or something else that's really good on PBS.  This winter and spring while I was off from work, I tuned into Masterpiece Classics and watched the complete Jane Austen series every Sunday night.  This was hosted by Jillian Anderson. 

This summer Masterpiece Mystery has been hosted by Allan Cummings.  Miss Marple and Inspector Lewis.  This fall there will be Masterpiece Contemporary hosted by Matthew Goode most recently of WATCHMEN and BRIDESHEAD REVISITED with Emma Thompson.  But what I am really looking forward to is the new film by Ken Burns.

PBS premieres this new 6 episode series starting on September 27th. 
Check your local listings.  I have my DVR set.

THE NATIONAL PARKS:  America's Best Idea

It is a film 10 years in the making.  Ken Burns along Dayton Duncan and the Florentine Films cinematographer have created a true Masterpiece.  I hope it will inspire you to visit as many of our National Parks that you can.

I guess I am really a big ol' geek when it comes to geography, American history and biographies.
I'm just fasinated looking at our history and how we got to where we are today.


Living in California I am blessed to have visited Yosemite and Joshua Tree.  Both parks are truly unique in their own ways and I believe national treasures.  Join me this fall on Sunday nights and witness a labor of love from Ken Burns and Florentine Films that is a gift to every American. 
You've never seen anything like this before.

Much Love,
Gerry
