Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard the History Channel will be airing something about Freddie to commemorate his 60th Birthday...
Will it air in the United States?
Or is this (again correct me if I'm wrong) only for Argentina??
I just checked my satellite guide for any documentaries of Freddie's life and what do I get? NADA, ZILCH, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!! It's times like these that make me hate living in Texas! Not even the DAMN Biography channel will be hosting any shows about Freddie! I am so upset! I would do ANYTHING to live in the U.K. right now! :( :(

I lived in the UK for two years because my dad was in the military. I wasn't a queen fan then. Now I live in Florida and there's nothing to do that involves Queen!
last night i saw on history chanel Freddie Mercury the untold history and the a documentary tribute to Freddie Mercury,anyway Happy birthday Freddie we love you
i just looked at the "this day in history" part of the history channel website...they had "prince becomes top-paid singer," and "outlaw jesse james is born in missouri," but not a word about freddie! travesty...
It was broadcasted only for Latin America.. I watched it a little, because i was very busy, but it was good. The only problem was that the documental was spanish spoken, no subtitles, which was a shame.
Hello!
Sure they did, last night here in Mèxico we got to see "Freddie Mercury: The Untold Story" (translated into Spanish) on The History Channel.It was a 1 hr. documentary.
Next, a kind of short version of the "Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert" was also broadcasted , a mixture of some of the songs , rehearsals and comments (1 hr. as well,& the dialogues were also translated into Spanish- quite convenient since many people -mainly youngsters- can't speak English).
So we are really glad Freddie is being remembered today in many places worldwide.
Regards,
You guys are all very lucky!! Nothing is on about Freddie where I am. It's all freakin' Rap documentaries on MTV and VH1. Arrgh!! Well, I've got my Queen DVDs to get me thru the night.

I would had prefered spanish subtitles, so they could kept the original language... that means, everybody ccan read in spanish, in Latin America i mean.

Thanks!! :-) I'll be sure to check those out. I was so excited, because I'd heard about VH1 having a Queen night. I ran home from my Trumpet lesson, because it was supposed to start at 7pm. When I turned on the TV, it was a movie about Eminem. I was so depressed. Oh well, I get BBC news on the public TV station at 11pm. Maybe, they'll have something on about Freddie.
