I enjoyed the first two but could barely stay awake the 3rd night. I'll be looking for reruns or in the Library!

Watched all 6 in the series. Very fascinating and a lot that I had forgotten thru the years. Yes, Eleanor was a wonderful woman especially for her time of history. All the other president's wives had nothing to say about being equal and human rights. She put a lot of "bugs" in Franklin's ear.

Yes, we have been watching. Caught the first 2 or 3 but have recorded the rest and hope to find time this week to watch the rest. Finally there was something on tv to watch.

I've been watching it online - search the Roosevelts pbs and you'll find it. I didn't care for history when I was in school but have come to enjoy Ken Burns' various documentaries. Very interesting family the Roosevelts.

I missed it but will catch it on Netflix when they issue the whole series. I am watching all of 'Breaking Bad' now.

I watched and recorded all 7 episodes. Lots of history and behind some of the greatest men are strong women. FDR is lucky Eleanor had so much grace and class to pull a state funeral together to honor him; even after finding out that Lucy Mercer Rutherford had been with her husband before his passing and that her daughter had helped facilitate those meetings. Another good movie to watch is 'Hyde Park on the Hudson' with Bill Murray playing FDR, Laura Linney playing Daisy.

...am enjoying the series too....recorded the whole thing so I can watch when I can...so far up to ep4....... Well done and so informative in many ways........know more about Teddie than ever before...thank goodness for his foresight.....and get things done attitude...wish there was more of that these days!

Have watched the first two and like so many, have really learned a lot. Ken Burns finds the little interesting tidbits that school history never taught us....I'm enjoying this series emmensely, but will probably relegate it to weekend watching since I'm now into a lot of the new "Pilot" programming. I've found if I don't watch the first in a series that I'm lost if I decide to keep watching it....and it generally takes me two or three episodes for me to decide if I like it or not......I have the Roosevelt series recorded so I can watch it at my leisure. With each episode lasting two hours, it does take a while.

Totally agree! What a great show. To bad they don't teach history in school..
