Freakin' awesome TV show...

When I remember the "Red Wave" voted into Congress with that idiotic leader named
Newt Gingrich ( who has tamed down a tad in recent years, thank god)....and his chant of
"Stop PUBLIC FUNDING OF THE ARTS AND PBS"..

It makes me cringe at the short sightedness of powerful influential morons when they come into power...

This Mark Twain TV show is the proof that Republicans had their heads up their kiesters all during the 90's...so much so that just looking back on it is V.E.R.Y. depressing.

Narrated by Keith David ( who played the field grunt "King" in the Oliver Stone Vietnam movie Platoon) does a stellar job.

If your bored with TV, Netflix, Sitcoms or the dozen or so AMERICA HAS TALENT DRIVEL OF SHHHEEEIIITTTTEEEE PROGRAMMING...

WATCH...PBS...

MARK TWAIN...by Mark burns...

and learn something worthwhile...

Get a life...

(EVEN FBI-SSG DIVISION aGeNt COWARD FELON SADISTIC MURDERER... COULD USE A LITTLE EDUCATION AND COMPASSION WHILE THEY LAY IN THEIR GOVT. RATE HOTEL ROOM BEDS,
AFTER A HARD DAY OF ILLEGAL GANGSTALKING, TRYING TO MAKE AN INNOCENT PERSON COMMIT SUICIDE, WHILE EARNING A LIVING BY DECIET AND CRIMINAL ACTIVITY...bY WATCHING THIS SORT OF TELEVISION PROGRAMMING.

I love Mark Twain, his wit and his writing are phenomenal, but I cannot stomach Ken Burns.

I've enjoyed what little I've seen from Ken Burns.

Baseball and civil war come to mind.
