I can’t wait to (not) see how he worms in racism, discrimination, misogyny, toxic masculinity, religious zealotry, substance abuse and general indictments of the southern culture into his latest social justice tome.
I’d rather watch something like this–>
I’m not even that much of a country music fan, but I’m a fan of talent, and this video is loaded with it.
Question: when is he going to do a documentary on the history of stupid haircuts?
ht/ jd hasty
He looks like a kid-toucher
When did Moe Howard change his name?
Another fiasco…………….. will it compare to Vietnam?
he dyes his hair
The incessant virtue signaling in his latter work gets rather tedious. Much of his earlier work can only be described as a masterpiece. If he were to return to focusing on the subject matter it would be looked forward to.
Really liked his Civil War work. Using the late (and great) historian Shelby Foote in his narration along with reading correspondence from both Union and Confederate soldiers was brilliant.
Unfortunately he fell, his his noggin, and is now a raving moon bat
Hasn’t someone, anyone, claimed that Ken Burns made them, at least, feel icky? Someone? Anyone? Please.
When ya turn off the lights the candle in his mouth lights up his nose and eyes too!
He simply “bowls” me over with his ability to rewrite history as required based on the subject matter and whichever lib needs redeeming.

Lazlo listens to Blue Grass Junction on the hopes I’ll hear me some Ricky Skaggs
Scary fast playing on that there video
Love the Beatle haircut.
Wrongo?
I looked forward to going over to my mother’s house and watching his series on the Vietnam War… I gave up somewhere near the first third of the second episode. It was that over the top.
@ Engelburka Engelburka winner winner chicken dinner
Burns looks like a transgendered dude lady …
Bitchslappable bitch.
Skaggs has kept the tradition alive, old time mountain music.
He has done a couple of follow ups to one of the greatest albums ever recorded….”Will the Circle be Unbroken”.
As far as burns….according to his Appalachia doc, there should be no trees or plant life in the mountains that are my stomping grounds. If you’ve ever been through the southwestern highlands of Virginia, you know how full-O-shit that douche is.
I would like to see him go down to Compton and do an expose about all the rappers that went legit who used to sling crack on the street corners – that would be interesting.
Big Fur – – great tunes! I used to play those in a bluegrass band.
Ken Burns is to history as Louis Gates is to race relations.
Music to marry your sister.
@nunya Ken Burns is teaching film for Master Class-an online learning site- where you can learn movie directing from Ron Howard, cooking from Gordon Ramsey etc…when I saw his photo I thought he had a sex change. He looks verrrrry strange. One of his assistants needs to tell him a man of his age needs a wig with a bit of gray as to not look like a total freak to the outside world.
Hank Williams and Johhny Cash – okay.
I’m just hoping he doesn’t do a chapter on Bobby Goldsbury.
