Watergate: Blueprint for a Scandal

Hoping to learn some inside details about Watergate, but what a total waste of time! It's sleazy and sordid and I feel like I'm learning nothing. Then i started watching this. OMG, it is so great!! Best way to get an education about this horrible event in our nation's history.

Watergate is something dull that we all where taught about at school and reflecting over all the films and tv series made over the years on or roundabout this affair that grew on your back of impatient boredome, screaming ''not again'', well then the grumpy old mans advice is, and i consider myself highly informed about the happenings and constitutional crisis making president nixon leave his sound studio at the house, you must have a look at this, its mindbending, still even after 50 years has passed.

A unique documentary , its like regurgitating ''deep throat'' back to life.

Completely agree with those who are bashing the show due to its false comparison to the Trump presidency. Obviously, this was made at a time when a lot of beliefs were in lies and twists of truth. For example - just ONE example: Now that we as a country know SO much more about how fake Russia-gate was, this documentary should be remade to remove all the negative Trump reference and replaced with all that has been done by Crooked Hillary and her gang of evil doers. After all we now know about election interference, SHE should be the one who is compared to this scandal. Typical, CNN.....very typical.

So much griping about references to Trump. They also "slammed" other presidents like Clinton and Bush but some reviewers are too concerned about their precious DT. I think this was a great series, even if CNN did produce it. The takeaway is that the allure of absolute power exists in any person regardless of party affiliation. And retaining that power will ultimately compromise a person's ethics, integrity or his willingness to live up to the principles and laws of his country. Any reviewer stupid enough to assume this is the only definitive source on Watergate needs to get off of cable news and go actually investigate the truth. Being intellectually bankrupt is not an endearing quality.

Interesting information about watergate. However to keep bring president trump into it is just a bashing piece. They just can't let it go any new documentary about anything political is just going to be a bashing piece. They are digging their own graves and wonder why the people don't trust the media. One of the persons speaking on this talks about where are the brave people in congress that they had back in the 70s when this happened. Well I'll say it they are still in congress and are rich and comfortable and so will keep toeing the line to keep there pockets padded. This is such a tripe show.
