The Men Who Built America originally aired as an 8-hour (with commercials), four-episode docu-drama miniseries from the History Channel. On this release, the episodes are broken down into eight 40+ minute pieces that add up to six hours of a historical soap opera chronologically centered around the lives of Cornelius Vanderbilt, John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, J.P. Morgan and Henry Ford. Is it six hours of historical splendor, or does the time drag as if you were an underpaid worker in one of Carnegie's steel mills?

The easy thing to do here would be to make fun of this release, and I'm sure reviewers have done that this week. Admittedly, I went into this review dreading it a bit mainly because I didn't know anything about Katy Perry, other than she sang songs. What did I get out of Katy Perry: Part of Me? Definitely more than I bargained for, which turned out to be a great thing.

You honestly cannot go wrong with anything that Ken Burns helps to make. Check out the official details below on his November release.
