Am I the only one who thinks this is one of the better things on TV today?Especially compared to the other so called news programs which are too much like People magazine for me.

no you are not. I have an SP for this, and TiVo picks it up when it doesn't cnflict with higher priority shows.
Not sure if I have a current one on the TiVo. But the last one I watched was on SUV rollovers. Previosuly, there were a lot of 9/11 and terrorist related shows.

One of the producers on staff is Lowell Bergman. The character Al Pacino played in The Insider.

IMO, probably the best news magazine show.

I just watched, I believe the latest one, on the whole Enron thing. Very Interesting, IMHO.

yeah. That was good. Talked about other accounting scandals and stuff as well, right? Plus, the stock option "madness" stuff.

Very insightful, IMHO.

It is well done.

I also have a wishlist for Frontline.

Did anyone record the episode of Frontline from 11/14 called "Let's Get Married"?

A comical series of events caused my TiVo to miss this one, and my fiancee and I were looking forward to it (we're
tying the knot in February.)

If anyone has it, and is willing to share (MPEG, VHS tape, VCD, whatever) I'd be greatly appreciative. PM me!

I think Frontline is great. I also have an SP for it.

I love Frontline they work so hard to get unique perspective on a story. Like the Church of the Navtivity Standoff Frontline had a camera inside the church.

Frontline is huge in Atlanta ever since the lost children of Rockdale County episode.

If you like Frontline be sure and set an SP for Frontline World. It is even better IMHO.:up:

Yeah, it's been really interesting every time I've caught it. So why don't I have an SP for it? <heads downstairs to the TiVo.....>

Fofer,
I just got married and I missed that one too. But if you go to Frontline's page at pbs.org, you can read all about it. It has more to do with using marriage as a tool to get lower income people out of poverty and questioning why marriage is basically unheard of in housing projects than what I thought it would have related too. Not that it wouldn’t be interesting, but I think the commercials were a bit misleading.

In any case, I would love to get my hands on a copy as well.

Posted by: Fofer

Yeah once I read more about the focus of the show I lost interest... if I do manage to get a copy I'll be sure to share it though.
