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 "b**ch". 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.
