Anybody watching the JFK special on Discovery now?

It's pretty damn good, IMO.

1. Yeah

Eerie to be those actors and know that the crosshairs of a scope are on your head.

2. I flip over to it now and then

I'm just wondering if it will be another white wash. The fact that I keep hearing British accents gives me hope that perhaps this time the show will be on the level. The BBC series "The Men Who Killed Kennedy" has been the best look at the assassination so far.

Edit: They're now far enough into the show so there is no doubt it's a sham. Relying on information from the Warren Commission report including the "official autopsy" report about the head wound and not even mentioning what the doctors who saw Kennedy in Dallas reported.

3. Oh for cryin' out loud

This show is a joke!

[Cetacea]

4. Pretty useless using the Warren Commision as a control

and they failed to mention the accounts of the doctors who worked on him in Dallas (large hole,lower right skull).

Pass.

6. oswald? single gunman? using science? no way...

i like it better when oliver stone tells the story.

science? we don't need no fucking science...

7. Interesting yes, so we learned JFK's brains were blown out....

I knew that 45 yrs ago. I'm still not convinced there was a single gunman. They didn't was to show the moment of his death. I've seen it thousands of times in slow motion film, it still gets me.
