It was absolutely fascinating. We're watching the one on George H. W. Bush now and intend to watch all of them. It's like getting to watch a totally entertaining movie every night, except you feel really good about it because you're learning history, too. I highly recommend. They're available on pbs.org, and Jim got us all fancy so we can get it onto the T.V. I don't understand how this HDMI thing works, but it's excellent.
This little tidbit wasn't in the movie, but Jim read an anecdote about the Clintons that we thought was pretty funny. Apparently Chelsea Clinton was sick one day, and the school needed parental permission to give her medicine. She told them to call her dad (who was President at the time) because her mom was too busy.

I want to watch. Look at you getting all smart.
I saw the GWH Bush one. It was great. I love PBS and American Experience and Frontline. You should get into Frontline. It is awesome. I gotta watch this one.
I'll have to figure out how to watch it.
