NY Times review

From China to the American Dream
By DWIGHT GARNER

"Bill Moyers is probably the most earnest man, and the most prolific television journalist, on the planet. His documentaries and specials roll off the PBS schedule as if from an assembly line, each stamped with the virtues he embodies: they're thoughtful, upright and high-minded and glow with a kind of secular piety. They're both fortifying and numbing, the television version of eating your spinach. He's television's Al Gore.

Like everyone else who spends a lot of time in front of the camera, Mr. Moyers tends to be as strong as the producers and writers who back him up. In the case of "Becoming American: The Chinese Experience," which will be shown on PBS tonight, tomorrow and Thursday in 90-minute installments, Mr. Moyers (who narrates the program and is credited as a writer) is clearly working with first-rate talent. This is a model documentary that gets almost everything right: it crams nearly two centuries of tangled Chinese-American history into a few engrossing hours while remaining surprisingly light on its feet. . ."
