    You're a day late and a dollar short, my friend:

    I've enjoyed the series so far, but I do not like the way the filmmakers have been using actors to portray the old bluesmen. IMHO it would be a much better series if they did it in the style Ken Burns uses...pure documentary with lots of rare footage and photos plus interviews. I'm not saying the Blues series sucks....it's good, but it could have been better.

    Tonight's (Tuesday) episode is followed by an episode of the connection which focuses on the Houston blues scene. Highly recommended.
