It was during Christmas break and there was nothing on TV to watch but this. I'm 14 now but at the time I was 10 years old. It was the best documentary I ever watched.

It made me feel jealous of all the people that got to experience the 80s and live through it. When I was watching the documentary, it made me feel like I was there. The movies, the music, the politics, it was all explained perfectly. It's all so much better than the stuff we have now a days.

The fall of Communism is seriously misrepresented. The serious is promoting the false view that the Berlin Wall fell thus causing communism to fall. By the time the Wall fell Communism had already fallen in Poland and Hungary. By ignoring the role Solidarity played and the crucial June 4 election in Poland, the series falsifies history by omission and does its viewers a great misservice. How can this grievous error be corrected?

The worst ever... All about money, no references to social problems (not enough anyway), no reference to geopolitical relations.

USA depicted as the bast Nation in history... Disgusting...

National geographic seriously???
