TV Series

Just getting into Gomorrah, 3.5 seasons in after a couple of weeks, dont think I've ever seen a gangster series as good (and that's coming from someone who loved Sopranos). Makes peaky blinders look like a Fisher price gangster show (although loved the period nature - never seem to see working class stuff from that era).
 
Just finished watching 'The Vietnam War', (Netflix) by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick.

I thought I knew a bit about it, having read a fair few books on the subject, but there was tons of new stuff in this series that I never had any knowledge of.

It covers the politicking, within the area, as well as at home in the US, leadership changes, coups, secret deals, fascinating stuff, as well as footage, maps, interviews with combatants and civvies, the effect it had on their lives and those left at home.

Well worth watching, if you like that sort of thing.

There was a slightly shorter version shown on the BBC last January, like you say it had a lot of depth and intrigue to it.

What channel is this on?
 
I have a flight in 6 hours and can't sleep so I am watching a series on you tube made by readers digest, narrated by Charlton Heston and titled 'Great People Of The Bible' if this doesn't send me to sleep there's no hope for me.
