Best Of TV 2016:

History Channel / BBC: Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace miniseries

Did this ever air in its entirety? I was only able to DVR the first two or three episodes, and then it was yanked from the schedule (DVR and listed schedule) with no advance warning.

It was airing on Lifetime as well. I thinking History Channel only aired some of the episodes.

You apparently have excellent taste. I would add to your list the Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown series on CNN, which I watch from time to time and find interesting.

Agreed! Designated Survivor has been great! I also agree with you Dwyer that EWTN’s miniseries on the Inquisition was wonderful, as was their miniseries on the Christian Social Order and their documentary on euthanasia.

May God bless you all!
