4. I think you mean Ken Burns.

Frank Burns was a doctor on Mash.

That aside, I'm looking forward to watching the documentary.

18. I watched it and found it very interesting.

Looking forward the the rest of it, just have to find out when it is on. (I'm surprised they didn't tell us at the end of the show.)

22. I set my DVR after someone mentioned this on here the other day

I started to watch it late last night, but didn't make it more than 15 min before I passed out exhausted.

I love Ken Burns!
