>>126649326Definitely sucked for that, but at the same time it felt like it was somewhat educational.
Personally speaking, I wouldn't have known half the historical figures in that series until much, much later had I not seen the show and got curious about them.
>>126661372I love this, fun story anon! Teachers should absolutely use media like that to spur some interest in their subject more often.
And it's funny you mention the Poe episode, it's what got me interested in Poe to begin with. So much so that my mom, an English teacher, started sharing with me the books she used for her own unit on him in her class. Wish she would have also used the episode, but then that was long before Youtube.
