23andMe is showing a 10-part PBS series on "Finding Your Roots" that beings tomorrow night (Sunday, March 25th). The premiere show is two hours long and starts at 8pm on PBS. You may want to check your local PBS station for the exact date and time. I tend to find these "roots" TV programs so excruciatingly slow moving that I can hardly sit through them, but maybe this one will be different. At the very least, I am hoping it's interesting for the novice because, if my cousins watch it, maybe they will finally become enthusiastic about the tests I've been purchasing for them! Diana

Gates tends to get a bit more technical in his shows, which is generally more enjoyable for the genetic genealogist/advanced genealogist. I am blogging with the other 23andMe Ambassadors for this series, probably starting next week. Thanks for reminding everyone about it, Diana!
