The Vietnam War

Another one of Ken Burns's long-ass documentaries has started on PBS, and this new one is on the Vietnam War.  His documentaries are notorious for being very comprehensive and historically accurate but very long and somewhat melodramatic, and this one looks like being no exception (18 hours!).  I've already fallen asleep as I tried to watch the first episode this evening!  But nonetheless this is a subject matter I'm interested in, so I will hope it is good as some of the other ones I've seen on topics such as Baseball and Prohibition.
