Yeah - cuz US television is so unbiased and not pro-USA. I guarantee you an American show would put just as much emphasis, if not more, on American scientists.Your slights against Germans are unfair and too harsh. It's a German show, but it still covers a *significant* amount of information about other nations, and readily admits in the series shortcomings and errors of German scientific history. Germany has always been at the forefront of industrial technology -- it's what they're most known for. Well... maybe second most known for.   See 2 other replies

Thats not all that is missing. Any reference to contributions by non-germans are missing. This series is bogus. So much is missing it make one wonder what is truth and what is make believe so that germans feel better about themselves. It's like a show to have blacks feel better about themselves presenting George Washington Carver with his peanuts.But this series did educate me on one point. I didn't realize that germans have such a poor self image. They need to produce shows like this for their population to have a better self image. This does show that the germans have provided milestones to society other then two world wars, poison gas used in warfare and death camps.   See 2 other replies
