As a rule of thumb, if I see a pop culture documentary, I will get around to watching it. 'History of the Sitcom' played a little differently than I thought. Rather than playing more linear in its entirety, it was more categorical. Each episode focused on a type or subsect of sitcom and from there played out a bit more chronologically. This worked out better, it didn't have to drag through the mud of the pre-Norman Lear days and helped with the pacing overall. A lot of folks from the sitcom world were interviewed which added a bit of legitimacy and validation to the whole thing. So far has been my first CNN docuseries, won't be my last.
