Masterpiece



Masterpiece
In 2008, Masterpiece began its thirty-eighth year on public television. During its storied history — the longest-running prime time drama in American television — Masterpiece has remained steadfast in its commitment to bring the best in literature-based drama, mysteries filled with eclectic characters, and groundbreaking contemporary works.

"The Unseen Alistair Cooke"
Check local listings for broadcast times in your area.

Marking the November centenary of the birth of longtime MASTERPIECE THEATRE host Alistair Cooke, "The Unseen Alistair Cooke" is a revealing portrait of one of the most celebrated broadcasters of the 20th century. Seen for the first time are extraordinary 8mm home movies shot by Cooke from 1933 onwards, charting his discovery of America, his passions and his relationships with stars such as Paulette Goddard and Charlie Chaplin.
