You are There

I remember they covered the Joan of Arc trial!. And as they tied her to the stake with a build-up of kindling & branches at her feet, the "reporter" stuck a microphone in her face and asked her for a final statement. They also "covered" the death of Aristotle.

Terrific show-promoted interest in history

The history lessons I remembered. Thank you Walter.

The history lessons I remember. Thank you Walt.

I lived in New Haven CT and the show was aired on Sunday Evenings in the early 50's

I remember the original show from the 50'- 60's! My 7th grade social studies teacher made us watch them- but I loved them -- I still quote "Everything's the same Except YOU WERE THERE" does anyone have any of the original clips? would love to see them!!

I remember watching this on Saturday mornings.....educational instead of the dumb cartoons.....a great show

this was a great show!

Dont usually comment but I had to this time. I STILL quote his ending remarks ("What sort of day was it? A day like all days...")!! Loved this show. Thanks for the memory.

I don't remember this program. Probably bored me to tears once, so I never bothered with it again. It's a shame that I didn't stick with it, however, since I later became a huge history buff and love read non-fiction books and watching the History Channel. What a stupid kid I was! :-)
