I mentioned back in Maritime Monday 103 that National Geographic is set to start airing a short series called America’s Port that was filmed in the Port of Los Angeles:
America’s Port
Mondays 10P et / 7P ptAmerica’s Port provides an unblinking view of this vibrant and colorful nerve center for global trade—the Port of Los Angeles. Get an inside look at this massive complex and the intrepid individuals charged with keeping it running smoothly and securely 365 days a year. It’s a dynamic and dangerous 24/7 operation.
As it says, the series is to air on Mondays. That’s great. To bad they were not so swift in mentioning early on that the series premiere airs Sunday 6 April.
More information including at least two video previews of the series can be found at the shows America’s Port Blog. And yes, episode II will be on Monday night.
