About this listen
Today we're saving that very special chapter of small-screen history — the shows you wished you could binge-watch but couldn't binge-watch because that wasn't possible — the TV miniseries. Whether it was the epic battles of Shōgun, the sweeping drama and historical significance of Roots, the misguided and controversial romance of The Thorn Birds, or the deliciously trashy and captivating stories of the romance novel adaptations (hello, Lace), these limited-run sagas were cultural touchstones. Will we mention Richard Chamberlin’s bare bottom? Listen to find out!
