Series follows TV pioneers' trail - Los Angeles Times: "'Pioneers of Television,' a four-part PBS documentary that begins tonight and runs Wednesdays through Jan. 23, offers an entertaining, sometimes enlightening look back at the very thing you'll be watching, if you watch.

TV: It's what's on television."
