The Kennedys

Hi everyone!
I haven't posted anything in a bit, but I thought I would talk about something that I saw on TV last night, namely the primer of a 4 part mini series called The Kennedys.

Apparently there was a lot of controversy about whether or not to air this show. I think the History Channel might have canceled it at one point but I'm not sure. I found it really interesting. I watched a special on TLC about the Kennedy's home videos and it caught my interest so I'm really glad that they decided to air the mini series.

So far I think the acting is pretty good. Barry Pepper, who plays Bobby, is so much like the real thing that it is almost creepy :-)

One of the things that really struck me in the first episode was the ambition of Joe Kennedy and the way that his whole family listened to whatever he said. I wonder how that is going to play out in future episodes?

The Kennedys is on the History Channel Sundays at 9:00. Watch it! :-)
