Rated 25 Dec 2010

A potentially interesting sociological look at American history is sabotaged by the fact that... well, there's too much "Amos 'n' Andy" in it. Large parts of this documentary are just scenes from the old TV show. However racist or controversial it is or isn't, it's just another lame sitcom
