I watched it.
pretty good should have been 2 hours and covered more of the other lines.
It was more of history of the Brand and not one model.

I will quot one thing from it. "The Cherokee XJ saved the company. With out it their would be no Jeep today"  :P

According to the show AMC developed the Cherokee XJ and it saved AMC, but then Chrysler made and offer that they could not refuse.
I don't know how accurate the documentary was but isn't everything on the TV and Internet true?   ::)
