I just watched one of the coolest shows on TV: Who Do You Think You Are?. It is about celebrities finding out who their ancestors were. Apparently it is a take-off from an original British version. It is clean, inspiring and so unlike anything else on TV. Very refreshing. This first one is about Sarah Jessica Parker, who I find ironically played a witch of the Salem Witch Trials in the kid's movie Hocus Pocus and then finds out that her ancestors were involved in the real thing. From the previews it appears that her husband Matthew Broderick, who played in Glory, has ancestors that fought in the Civil War.
Here is the link to this episode.
