For the past few weeks I kept seeing subway ads for a three-part series on Nova called Becoming Human and it looks pretty cool. PBS describes it as “the first in-depth televised investigation documenting an explosion of recent discoveries, NOVA’s three-part special, Becoming Human: Unearthing Our Earliest Ancestors, examines what the latest scientific research reveals about our hominid relatives — putting together the pieces of our human past and transforming our understanding of our earliest ancestors.” Check out the promo:

Becoming Human begins November 3 at 8pm on PBS.
