CBC has two new channels: Bold and Documentary. Digital subscribers across the nation can get a free preview of both channels, throughout the month of April 2008. Take advantage of the preview to check out some interesting homeschool video! I’m going to check out Seven Ages of Rock, a history of rock & roll music. The episodes air Sunday nights on Documentary. On Bold there are a number of shows that might be of interest, including the Metropolitain Opera Series, also on Sunday evenings. The Tudors, a series about young Henry VIII is very popular, but is probably most suitable for older teens and adults. You can actually watch archived episodes online, as well, which would allow a new viewer to catch up to speed.

To find your Bold & Documentary on your TV, go to the preview page & click on the link for channel numbers. There’s also a contest running, if you like entering them. The prize is a trip to the Sundance Film Festival!
