I happened across Fresh Air on the radio a little earlier this afternoon, and I learned that PBS will be airing a new documentary on Herge entitled Tin Tin and I. Terri Gross was actually interviewing the director, Anders Østergaard. I just caught the tail end of the interview, but it definitely sounded like something worth watching. It's supposed to debut nationally tonight at 10:00, but my local stations don't seem to be showing it until 4:00 am on Thursday. I'm reminded of a quote from Mark Twain: "When the end of the world comes, I want to be in Cincinnati because it's always 20 years behind the times." Even with the information age, it seems that the best we can do is still two days late.
In any event, I'll post my thoughts on Tin Tin and I after I watch it, probably Saturday morning sometime.
