I just discovered it on the Science Channel. I got to see the episode on Robert A Heinlein. I had forgotten just how much I enjoyed his work and how they have affected me. More importantly, it enlightened my son about some of the earlier SF authors.

I was disappointed though that there was no mention of his juvenile fiction. Probably the best of which was "Podycane of Mars". Ironically his last, unless you count Starship Troopers as a Juvenile. (It isn't, IMO though I think you could argue it has some elements of the Juvenile works)

I can't tell you how those 'juveniles' shaped my taste in fiction. They are still worth the investment in time.
