I'm just now catching up on DVR and having the same reaction. But here's how I look at it... this show is encouraging me to really educate myself on what happened. I was a young adult, in my last semester of college and planning a wedding when this happened and so I only sort of paid attention to the nightly news and I completely bought into the narrative the government was selling. Three episodes in and I've been inspired to start listening to the audiobook version of David Thibodeau's book the miniseries is partially based on. It is truly eye-opening and even though I'm only a short way through it, I'm already seeing this tragedy in a whole new light.
So, it might be entertainment, but I think it's a good thing if it inspires people to take another look at what really happened and not just rely on what they've always thought, if that makes sense.
