We'll be back with a brand new edition of TV Confidential later in July. In the meantime, please enjoy this clip from June 2011 in which Tony, Donna, and Ed remember The Bicentennial Minutes (CBS, 1974-1976), a series of one-minute educational television segments, produced by CBS News, that every night aired in prime time (usually at the end of the 8pm hour) to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the American Revolution. The series premiered on July 4, 1974 and was originally scheduled to end on July 4, 1976, but continued to run until the end of the bicentennial year, 1976.
