Darn the games those Networks play. There goes the ratings for Monday night football. It does look like a good program and I plan to watch it.
Thanks for the reminder.
Glad I checked in tonight to the forum! Yes, I'll watch. Gonna Tevo Heroe"s
History Channel is great! (Also love Discovery, Travel, NGC, etc.)
One thing that's funny to me is the Russian girls seem to understand the programming on these channels a lot easier than something like Friends or Lost, or even every A/W's favorite, Oprah.
I guess it's because the language spoken is proper and slow, and directly pertains to the subject matter.

I watched the program last night. It was really interesting and informative. I hope they do more on the history of Russia and eastern Europe. The buildings were so impressive, especially the winter palace in St. Petersburg.

Not only that but the amount of literal "hand" labor that was required.....
