This is a TV program that my dad introduced me to, in the early 1980's. This, along with Carl Sagan's COSMOS, basically built up how I think about the world today, and why I am keen on observing how the things around us, in the modern world, interact with humans, and help define our meaning of life and existence. It was hosted by James Burke.
Connections (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Along with COSMOS, this TV program helped shape the way I think today.
Here is Episode 1 of "Connections", conveniently available via YouTube.
