That should be interesting. I've been seeing the promos for that and have it set it record.

I read many of her books back in the day. I'll watch it. should be interesting.

I saw that was going to be on and have it set to record.

My question is: When did CNN start getting into documentaries? I am not a CNN watcher normally, but have found in the past year that there were a few documentary or series type things that have caught my attention and watched. They were good, even though right now I can't remember which ones I watched! ha!

Perhaps it is to draw in more viewers, as I read on the Internet some months ago that their viewership had gone down quite a bit. This type of programming with a documentary is definitely drawing me in to their channel and perhaps that is the strategy.

@World Traveler

For quite a few years now, since 2012.

@World Traveler ....I don't tune into CNN at all, EXCEPT when they have documentaries I am interested in. If I'm not mistaken, doesn't Tom Hanks and Steven Speilberg do alot of these...executive producers? I know Ken Burns does alot for PBS and I have enjoyed those.

I loved when they did the decades and everything that happened during those times. I also loved the documentaries on late night shows. Yes, I've heard CNN's ratings are low. But, I'm sure it helps to have these types of shows.

@kittykatkay I don't tune into any of those biased news channels. Just a bunch of ridiculous opinions. I watch the local news at six and that's it. But that documentary looks good. Hopefully it records.

@kittykatkay @Mz iMac Thanks for the update on the docs for CNN. I will have to check them more frequently on TV Guide. It was accidental that I saw the Lady Boss listing.

I think CNN has to do something....hope their documentaries are based on facts unlike their news reporting
