NOVA - PBS Video: 'Building Pharaoh's Chariot' Sneak Peek - Airs Feb 6 '13 9/8C

NOVA - PBS VIDEO: 'PHARAOH'S CHARIOT' SNEAK PEEK - CHARIOT WEAPONS - AIRS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 2013 AT 9/8C
Military historian Mike Loades explores the weapons that the ancient Egyptians used in war. Then, he takes them on a one-of-a-kind chariot ride.
Around 3,600 years ago, reliefs in Egyptian tombs and temples depict pharaohs and warriors proudly riding into battle on horse-drawn chariots. Some historians claim that the chariot launched a technological and strategic revolution, and was the secret weapon behind Egypt's greatest era of conquest known as the New Kingdom. But was the Egyptian chariot really a revolutionary design? How decisive a role did it play in the bloody battles of the ancient world?
In "Building Pharaoh's Chariot," a team of archaeologists, engineers, woodworkers, and horse trainers join forces to build and test two highly accurate replicas of Egyptian royal chariots. They discover astonishingly advanced features, including spoked wheels, springs, shock absorbers, anti-roll bars, and even a convex-shaped rear mirror, leading one of them to compare the level of design to the engineering standards of 1930's-era Buicks! By driving our pair of replicas to their limits in the desert outside Cairo, NOVA's experts test the claim that the chariot marks a crucial turning point in ancient military history.

Pioneers of Television - PBS Video: 'Miniseries' - 'Roots' Sneak Peek Airs Feb 5 '13

PIONEERS OF TELEVISION - PBS VIDEO: 'MINISERIES' - 'ROOTS' SNEAK PEEK: A TRANSCENDENT MOMENT - AIRS TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2013 AT 8/7C
"Roots" co-stars Louis Gossett Jr. and LeVar Burton describe a special scene they shared and all that it implied. Gossett Jr., who played the character Fiddler, spontaneously added a line of his own when comforting the young Kunta Kinte, played by Burton. “Roots” author Alex Haley, who was also on the set, let the unscripted line remain. Burton calls Gossett Jr.’s acting at that moment, “transcendent.” The miniseries “Roots” is featured on the Pioneers of Television: Miniseries episode, premiering Tuesday, February 5, 2013 at 8 pm on PBS.
Beginning in the mid-1970s, miniseries based on novels captivated television audiences like never before. Networks poured money into the productions and reached huge numbers of viewers around the world. The key to these miniseries’ success are beloved characters that survive twists and turns that unfold over decades, including struggles to be accepted, whether in a loving relationship or within society.
“Roots,” based on Alex Haley’s novel, was shown over eight consecutive nights in 1977 and attracted more viewers than any other television drama before. “Roots” was a cultural landmark that had a profound effect, shifting opinions and revealing the truth about the African-American experience of slavery.
Roots cast included pre-Star Trek: The Next Generation's LeVar Burton, Olivia Cole, Ben Vereen, John Amos, Leslie Uggams, Carolyn Jones, Stargate SG-1's Louis Gossett, Vic Morrow, Chuck Connors, Ji-Tu Cumbuka, Edward Asner, Ralph Waite, Robert Reed, Lynda Day George, Madge Sinclair, Scatman Crothers, George Hamilton, Richard Roundtree, Lloyd Bridges, Georg Stanford Brown, Lynne Moody, Sandy Duncan, Moses Gunn, Thalmus Rasulala, Hari Rhodes, Lorne Greene, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, Maya Angelou, Doug McClure and Cicely Tyson.
In “Rich Man, Poor Man” (1976), two starkly different brothers seek acceptance from their rough-edged immigrant father as they also build their lives in America, from post-World War II through the 1960s.
Rich Man, Poor Man cast included Peter Strauss, Nick Nolte, Susan Blakely, Dorothy McGuire, Tim McIntire, Ray Milland, Robert Reed, Bill Bixby, Norman Fell, Lawrence Pressman, Kim Darby, Murray Hamilton, Herbert Jefferson Jr., Van Johnson, William Smith, Edward Asner and Dick Sargent.
Set in Australia between 1915 and 1969, “The Thorn Birds” (1983) saga centers on a handsome priest’s devotion to both God and love of a woman.
The Thorn Birds cast included Richard Chamberlain, Rachel Ward, Christopher Plummer, Bryan Brown, Barry Corbin, Star Trek: The Next Generation's John de Lancie, Barbara Stanwyck, Jean Simmons, Piper Laurie, Earl Holliman, Ken Howard, Richard Kiley and Mare Winningham.
