i videotape most of the series when it rerun on wnet some 20 year ago and and i keep try to like it . but even to this avid tv viewer who live through that era and be fascinate by cultural anthropology and the show be largely unwatchable . the problem be that except for a couple of episode ( episode 2 and maybe the one with lance in paris ) and it dull and slow . what make it shock in 1973 the strangeness of be able to peek into someone else day to day life have now be eclipse by a torrent of tell all talk show and contrive reality show . without the show original voyeuristic shock value and ten of the twelve hour be unadulterated tedium ( though i imagine a nifty 100 minute documentary could be cull from the footage ) .
