Five stars on this series. As a history buff, I’ve found these are the only documentaries on the presidents that accurately record both sides of these controversial, complex and great leaders. It’s a series of PBS documentaries that began in 1990 with David Grubin’s “LBJ” and ended this spring (2008) with “George H.W. Bush”. Included in the series, but excluded from this area for some reason is the 1993 documentary on Dwight D. Eisenhower: “IKE”, hosted by David McCollugh. It was available several years ago in a box site with the other Republican presidents. But it seems to have vanished this time around. An oversight by PBS perhaps? Inability to gather publication rights from the filmmaker? Who knows? But its absence leaves a gaping hole in American presidential history that *seems* easily remedied. Fix that, and you’ve got a advance perfect visual lesson on the presidency during the 20th century, sans presidents Taft, Hoover, Coolidge and Clinton.
These are the best documentaries on these Presidents period. Throw your others out (except the ones that have all the Presidents like PBS’ fabulous American Presidents in 2000 and the History Channel’s unique comprehensive one) .

I collected assume LBJ is the most consuming one. But that owes a lot to the man himself. So many crazy stories…
And yes, I too wonder why Eisenhower wasn not included in this collection. I already bear all these (plus IKE) ; collecting them the hard plot.

Like another reviewer pointed out, the 20 Century is represented well, but remember: McKinley ushered in the 20th and thus should be included as well. And not only are Taft, Coolidge, Hoover, Clinton missing… but don’t forget Harding & Ford (although they are quite forgettable) .
I actually bought “FRONTLINE: The Clinton Years” from PBS as a placeholder until they do something better on Bill.
