Not all of it, of course, just a lot of reading of the writings of the main characters.
I know—I saw his name in the credits, but when jagdriver mentioned Episode 4, I just wondered WHO in that episode he was. I love Tom Hanks!

I had never heard that one before. We were watching it and got the strong feeling from the narration that they were not coming out of it. Seems that given the number of times they were thrown out of the boat upstream, that this last time, both of them were thrown out and could not get back to the boat. Cool boat, though perhaps not the best for running the Colorado.
