LIFE (Part 2) [An innovative PBS series on aging]

Do you ever wonder what the meaning of life is?

Well, Life (Part 2) is about life. It's an innovative series by and about the whopping 26% of the American population who are 55 and older (and you know who you are).

You've got questions. And although we might not have all the answers, Life (Part 2) is all about diving in and asking, exploring, and challenging. It's not your grandparents' show about getting old. It's about the new "old" age; it's about aging vitally and vibrantly, defying ageist stereotypes, and still having a clear-eyed view of the challenges that come with this new territory. It is about redefining what the second part of life is all about.

Hosted by actor (and backgammon champ) Alan Rosenberg, each half-hour episode offers valuable insight and depth about the art and science of aging with healthy doses of irreverence and humor. We may not be able to answer the big questions, like "What is the meaning of life? How do we make the most of our time on this planet? Paper or plastic?" But, Life (Part 2) can tell you a lot about living. And really, isn't that what it's all about?
