PLS Media, in conjunction with Evolution Network announced another original scripted program coming to the cable network in the spring of 2011.
"1968" is an hour long scripted drama. From the producers of "Crotoan" comes another historical limited series. From the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy to the growing unrest amongst the youth towards their leadership and the VietNam war. 1968 remains perhaps the most culturally signficant year of the 20th century. See this year come to life once again in complete re-enactments as well as archival footage backed by the soundtrack of a generation. Look back at it with the knowledge that we now have of who was really pulling the strings of power. Step back to 1968 and step forward to a 60 minute adreneline rush. Follow the Martin family, from gentleman farmer Grandpappy, to Baby Boomer parents Rick & Michelle, and their three boys; one on his first tour of duty in Vietnam, the second headed to College but apparently sidetracked by the surrounding social discontent, and a third only 7 years old and already being molded by the tragic and violent events that surround him. Watch and see how America and the Martin family grow up during the year 1968.
