American Experience

PBS

Since 1988, PBS has broadcast a series that focuses on the history of the United States and what has made it unique. Called American Experience (originally titled The American Experience), the program examines the people, events, technology, and natural resources that have shaped the country. Hosted by David McCullough until 2002 and narrated by a number of well-known personalities - American Experience uses historians and authors, period images and film, music, dramatic re-enactments, and contemporary context to set the stage for its topics.

The series continues to this day with a variable number of installments produced each year. Episodes are generally 60 minutes in length, but some longer episodes and multi-part series have also been produced. The show airs at different days and times on local PBS stations.

Though American Experience has used many films from independent film makers and has been assisted by various PBS stations throughout the country, it has always been spearheaded by WGBH in Boston.moreless

Mermaids: The Body Found

Animal Planet

In the early 1990's, the United States Navy began a series of covert sonar tests that were linked to mass die-offs of whales washing up on beaches around the world. These beachings were well-publicized, but startling amateur video and photographic evidence - much of it never released until now - suggests that whales were not the only creatures affected by the Navy's sonar. In 1997, scientists monitoring underwater microphones recorded a mysterious sound deep in the Pacific Ocean, a sound from an unidentified creature unlike any other animal recorded. What made that sound, dubbed "The Bloop," has remained one of the greatest mysteries of the oceans, until now... as Animal Planet presents the CGI, two-hour special Mermaids: The Body Found.moreless

Twisted

Investigation Discovery

Twisted is a documentary television series from Investigation Discovery that presents riveting portraits of some of the most deadly and frighteningly successful serial killers in recent history, using archival footage, witness testimonials, and interviews with the close friends that never knew the truth to assemble an image of these evil humans. Whether exploring the warped mentality of rapist and serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer or identifying the possible motivations for the DC Sniper's killing spree, this series takes an unflinching look at the serial killers who managed to evade the law long enough to take the lives of many innocent people. One of the major questions this series seeks to answer is whether these men were driven to commit these crimes because of the way they had been raised and the lives they had lived, or if there was something wrong with them from birth. Twisted is a compelling series about the people capable of committing the world's most gruesome murders.moreless

While known for their crimes, some mobsters are known for their downright eerie ability to manipulate those around them. Like James "Whitey" Bulger. One of the most legendary Boston gangsters for more than twenty years, his machinations and elusiveness led to FBI's "Deal with the Devil", an informant ring that had kept him free and clear of jail time. Frank Nitti had been merely an enforcer until Al Capone was sent away for tax evasion. With Capone gone, Nitti became an expander, eventually pushing the influence of the Mob into the labor field and even Hollywood studios. Mobsters were an influential part of American culture and the Biography Channel does all it can to share the impact of these few well-known men.moreless
