Who Do You Think You Are?

Who Do You Think You Are?

In Britain the well known television show “Who Do You Think You Are?” has been widely viewed.  The premise of the show to take a well known person and look into their family tree.  In the past the results have been to say the least, interesting. 

According to the blog site “Genealogy Gems News” the deals on the show have been on again and off again.  Here is a quote from the blog:

The series will feature celebrities who discover their family history with the help of producers and researchers.  Episodes that are already in the can will feature Sarah Jessica Parker and Susan Sarandon as well as the Executive Producer herself Lisa Kudrow.  

Take a look at this episode from the U.K. addition:

I think it is always fun to check into famous people’s lives and see just how like the rest of us they are.  I will be watching for this new show and I hope you will be too.  Let me know what you think.

Just for fun
