My Life as a Child

I was really looking forward to watching the new TLC series, My Life as a Child , on Monday night. Twenty children age 7 to 11 were given video cameras to document their lives over several months. They also recorded video diaries to go with the footage they shot. It sounds like a great show and even got a positive review in the LA Times. Unfortunately, the LA Times review also said the show was on at 7PM on Monday. It was, as long as you were in the Eastern time zone. In California, it was shown at 4 PM, so by the time I turned on the television, it was long over and they were showing some goofy show about video clips of kids doing goofy stuff. I'm sure the first episode will be shown again, so I'll look for that.
