Episode Details

Netflix’s new docuseries “The American Experiment” traces 250 years of U.S. history with Tom Hanks producing — but it’s not all glory. While celebrating the revolution and America’s rise from colonial outpost to global superpower, the series candidly confronts the flaws: the electoral college, the Capitol riot, and the fading shine of the “shining city on a hill.” Experts like Mike Pence and Hillary Clinton offer blunt takes, revealing a nation proud of its past but uneasy about its present. Re-enactments are sparingly used, focusing on costumes and context over drama — a grounded look at how America got here, and why the dream feels less perfect than it once did.
