[Yourfrontallobe]

Dear cute girl who sits behind me in my Psychology class who was talking about this..I love you.

[emopunkrocer]

go to netflix u can watch it

[ArchitekOGP]

Why do Americans have to make shows like this so over dramatic?

[EstupedMexicanz]

Thumbs up If you've ever fell in love with a girl or boy for a couple minutes in a dream.

[LauraxXxCheesez]

This is perfect 4 me right now, ive been having some wierd dreams and its made me become dead interested in dreams, ive been reading books and researching and its not help very much and this comes out, i hope it helps :P

[engelsbrennen]

Dreams are a succession of images that are a product of electromagnetic impulses projected from the pineal gland. Notice in the documentary when they show the section where the brain is most active in Rem sleep, its neither in the right nor left hemisphere, rather within the epicenter of your physical brain, which of course is where the Pineal gland is located.

[hsuehhs1]

Youcan buy from Amazon for $19.99! Is PBS aware of that? 

[adolfolicious]

let me save you the trouble of watching this. the answer: "we dont know"....probably

[Phyle9]

"Watch this thing called dreams" ?!?

Sorry, i am not audience of my own dreams, i'm the actor! LOL

[jon33km]

If you just had a dream and you want it interpreted, go to DefineMyDream'com to get it analyzed. You can do it anonymously, or register to keep track of them.

[MiSha400]

Dreams may be the astral planes...

[nikkokofx]

yea me too. I noticed it on Netflix streaming and watched it. It was good and interesting.

[BarmaidAz]

It's available on Netflix. I just watched it, free (though Netflix isn't free access, it's extremely inexpensive with unlimited views, I just cancelled cable tv because Netflix is a much better deal!)...it's an excellent and solid breakthrough. Dreaming is simulation, among other things. Soon they will figure out that so is "mind" inclusive of "thinking" for 2 different funtions!

[HaoSci]

Oh, darn it! I've missed it.

[evildeadwench]

it says this video is no longer available for online viewing. why? i want to see it. does it air again on tv? i searched everywhere, and i cant find a video of this program.

[PBS]

Due to rights issues, this video was available for online viewing for a limited time.

[Rhebunny10]

where can we watch it?

[hkfreak]

So my hometown 'GBH says it's not OK for them to put it online (plus whatever associates that collaborated, since I know they will partner with the BBC or Channel 4)?

[elmeeone]

@evildeadwench is this the same one thats on netflix

[MrParmigianoReggiano]

@evildeadwench just in case you still have not seen it yet ...

[SBTSeabuckthorn]

Just watching it, it's fascinating. A few thoughts: One, they say that, regarding depressives, the extra time spent in REM sleep, which is controlled by the ancient part of our brains relating to bad things, causes depression. But what if it's the opposite? Their extra time is spent in REM because they have more bad stuff to work out? Also, the way they describe dreaming it sounds like our brains defragging!

[roryfitzpatric]

where can i find this, i missed it.

[PBS]

A link to where you can watch the entire program online is at the beginning of the description.

[jonnyspikes]

For whatever reason, the link doesn't appear to be working. Just says "Stay tuned." Did the video expire?

[PBS]

@jonnyspikes That link is now fixed. Thanks for calling it to our attention.

[jonnyspikes]

Woah, I was acknowledged by PBS. Thanks for fixing the link, can't wait to watch!

[SpliNterCellFan697]

@PBS Are you the one that actually owns PBS?

[panda374]

I just saw this show.

[HUTINAK]

yeah post a 30 second promo rather than the entire episode.....makes sense to me

[theinsane101]

Dreams are remnants of a long lost human telepathic ability.

[Havermayer]

Dreams are magic fairy dust left over from the war of the roses.

[salvo711]

I think this comment is pretty funny coming from a user named "theinsane101." Just saying.

[EminetCarnage2]

anyone ever have a dream of you doing stuff and the some time later it happens? (yes i know its futuresight)

[8783674374]

say no to the reptilian race that is planning to enslave the globe under the new world order and obama the half lizard is signing away us sovereignty in december. Obama's real father is Michael C. Rockefeller and his presidency was planned half a century ago and is a globalist reptilian plot.

[OnlySinner]

He's only half lizard?

[Havermayer]

They see me trollin'....

[shfbdfi1273]

futuresight or craziness

[stan007stan]

Yeah, but its truly more futuresight when you see people in your dreams that you never saw before. Happens to me sometimes, maybe 6 times a year and i'm always "wtf I already saw that 2 years ago"...

[pboisei]

deja vue?

[ButterflyNM14]

@EminetCarnage2 YES.

[TreeHuggingSyco]

Man id much rather watch "Sittin on tha toilet" than this!

[e314ds]

It shows.

[viasly]

any else one notice that some PBS stations are sponsored by Monsanto

[Katryd1]

I wish I had enough money to donate to PBS; their programs are excellent, high quality. I'm very grateful for them.

[salvo711]

I agree... this one was especially interesting.

[Yuratchka]

Interesting. I wouldn't mind watching this if they'd give the time and date on when the show's going to air.

[PBS]

Thanks -- airdate now added to the beginning of the description.

[elanarab]

It's different everywhere. You have to check your local listings or go to the website and look for your area.
