PBS Special The National Parks
« on: September 06, 2009, 12:58:05 pm »

Finally after all of the "teasers" and waiting, The PBS special The National Parks will be televised beginning on Sunday, September 27th. From the preview alone it looks like another winner. They are even taking pre-orders for the DVDs and the companion book. Another fine production from Ken Burns. Here is the link to the PBS webpage http://www.pbs.org/nationalparks/.

I posted this elsewhere on this forum and didn't get much love.  I'm seriously looking forward to it but I don't think anyone else is.

I'm looking forward to it too, and wouldn't have known about it if it weren't for this post.  Thanks very much for mentioning it!

They have been running a 30 minute preview for several weeks now. It is stunning in both the photography and depth of features. I just can't wait for the series to begin. If they run it on consecutive nights, I think I will loose a whole week just watching it. Also saving my lunch money to buy the DVD set.
