    OJ, Made in America

    This is getting an awful lot of good buzz. Eight hours long.

    If part one is any indication, this is a must see. Very well done.

    For you young ones that are perplexed at the whole Ali adoration, watch this for historical perspective.

    Excellent filmmaking and important intelligent discussion of the collision of uniquely American issues of celebrity, legacy of slavery, Uncle Tomism, LAPD pigs and modern media fucking up the judicial process. Just when I getting weary of all things OJ, I'm glad we tuned in to see E1. E2 was even better. Now I'm hooked, will watch E3 tonight. Must see indeed.

    I saw part one. I liked it. i never really knew that much about him and USC - Before my time.

    when the recent stories started coming out about TBI and Athletes. I thought of OJ

    I guess it would be unpopular to give OJ any slack But?

    The tons of film they found of him simply running through defenses with the football is a joy to watch. There has been nothing like him since.

    Yep,
    I don't know when part two is going to play? Has it come out and I just need to find it?

    Watching him on the field and then lining that up with his stand on racial issues was a trip.

    As you keep reminding yourself where he is now.

    Episode 4 is pretty heavy. Graphic crime scene stuff and the absolute destruction of the prosecution. Such a crazy trial, such a good documentary.

    Yeah, that's how I'm watching it right now.


    Edit: The on demand version is uncensored.
