The Best Television
Among my favorite shows (Lost, Amazing Race, This Old House, Ask This Old House,…) is what I think might be one of the best on TV right now. Frontline is a “broadcast documentary” show that’s been around since 1983, highlighting gritty, raw, often contreversial topics in a very well informed fashion. This week’s show focused on “Al-Qaeda’s New Front”; an eye-opening expose on origins and driving factors behind the new terrorism. Fascinating looks into figures and ideologies that I had never previously considered. I HIGHLY recommend not just this particular broadcast, but the entire series from Frontline. Here in DC it’s on MPT Channel 22 on Thursday nights at 9pm. Check it out and let me know what you think. If you visit the site, you can watch several of the programs online too!
