Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: "Defying the conventional view of culture on TV as stuffy and obsessed with 'plummy British accents,' as Slava puts it, Ovation has assembled an eclectic array of performances, films, documentaries and more of both the fine arts and mainstream popular fare.
The revamped Ovation kicked off this week with 'American Revolutionaries,' a celebration of innovative artists airing through July 15. The something-for-everyone mix includes programs on Jackson Pollock, Elvis Presley, John Coltrane, Marlon Brando, Frank Lloyd Wright and Kurt Cobain."

I had no idea about this show! That's great that there's a show on tv about all these important artistic members of our culture. Although, most likely the people watching this are already interested in culture, one never knows if some culturally deprived person, who does actually think art is stuffy, will flip across this show and see something that interests them, and therefore maybe take the initiative to further explore.
P.S. I'm glad Kurt Cobain is included in this.
