That sounds like an interesting one, for sure.  I will have to keep my eye
out for it.

I have been watching that one for quite some time now.  It has been around
since at least the 1990's, although I think they skipped many years.  Before
Spencer Christian was the host, the host was a fellow (forget his name!) that
used to work for Walt Disney as an animator, I think.  That is a great show.

A season or two ago, they did one show that had a segment on the rail line
that pretty much runs across the whole of Russia.  Then there was a bonus
episode that was nothing but that segment, expanded to fill the full ~30
minutes.

Here, it comes on KET on Thursday evenings, but it is only aired on their
non-HD subchannel.  Still DVR it every week. :)
