Being obsessed with Hitler was the best thing about History. They got a shitload of WW2 vets in front of cameras to talk about what they did before they all started passing away, a lot of those shows were great.
History Channel has always had weird phases
For a while it was basically nothing but WWII shows.
Then after the DaVinci Code came out it was basically the Gnostic Gnetwork with nothing but Biblical and pseudobiblical stuff.
Senator Grassley is that you?
They did give us Fatkino
Wish I could make one about Locomotion, but I was a child when it started, only was around for its last few years before it turned into Animax latam.
