Ride out whatever you're going through with this totally biased and super unscientific ranking of each and every Ken Burns documentary. And while our lockdown days may be over, the Ken Burns catalogue will always be there for you. That’s why you won’t see The West on the list. Now, I'm now uniquely qualified-in so much as anyone is-to rank the efforts of the legendary documentarian.īefore we dive in, a point of clarification: For the purpose of this consideration, I only included films that Ken Burns directed, meaning the ones he produced didn't make the cut.

Something that wouldn’t make me miss my non-coronavirus life, but would offer me perspective instead. In desperation, I searched for a new series. It was April, and I would’ve cut out my eyeballs with a dull butter knife if it meant I could travel back in time to live in Scranton, PA, in 2004. I’d watch The Office with nothing but contempt for Michael, Pam, Jim, and their non-coronavirus-infected lives. ![]() Somewhere in the middle of it all, Melinda's boss will turn up with the keys to the now destroyed cctv cabinet lolĤ/10 and the 4 is only 1 because the Sheila character was a perfect fit for Suki Waterhouse who gave her usual performance, and 3 for a reasonable performance by Cobham-Hervey, unless that was just her normal self which is quite possible.Early on during the pandemic, my feel-good shows stopped working.
