    I rate this title on for age 13 and give it 5.0

    An excellent show for people into history

    However, this show can get rough. One episode I saw had moderately violent pictures of slaves who had been "punished" and had moderate profanity, like "bitch". One episode was about the Scottsboro boys of the early 1900's and contained racial slurs and intense sexual dialogue. (That specific episode should've been rated TV-14-D.) But if you can get past all the objectionable content that could be present in some episodes of "Experience", I highly recommend this show. It's highly educational and interesting. Just be sure kids under 12 are asleep due to the late time slot and possible objectionable content.
