I'm quite certain this will not be a way to recognize people long forgotten from an historical perspective that most people who participate here would perhaps like to see. That's what 200 page books are for, or a continuing series...not a documentary with strict content limitations that will NEVER be able to tell the ENTIRE story of the dozens, if not hundreds of artists executives, and others that all made a contribution to the Motown legacy... Just not enough time and not really the story most of the uninitiated will be tuning in to see...
Exactly and this is a 2 hour show not a three week miniseries. This is probably for mainstream audience not for die hard fans and if it brings Motown music to millions of new folks then thats a real good thing imo.
