Did anyone happen to catch this? A really remarkable documentary with an excellent book (Angels City Press) to go with it:

I recorded and watched 20 minutes last night. What I saw was excellent! I am looking forward to seeing the entire program.

Yes indeedy, not only did I watch it, but recorded it as well. A most excellent production! You cannot know Los Angeles without knowing the Chandlers.
