The narrator of the show is the same narrator of Ken Burns' Civil War show. He could literally read me the phone book and I'd sit in amazement.
Peter Coyote. He's like Leiv Schreiber, who does all of the HBO sports docs. He could read the airplane vomit bag and make it sound compelling.
As for my takeaway, I don't see it as an Xs and Os type thing, LBJ should have zigged when he chose to zag. The French experience there was a cautionary tail the US chose to ignore. My .02. It's a compelling series regardless, though, and well worth viewing.
