Shakespeare's Missing Manuscripts: The Whole Shebang

Imagine the surprise that greeted historians when they stumbled upon that lead case at the bottom of the famous Oak Island Pit. For centuries people have attempted to dig up what they thought was pirate treasure. Instead they came upon the manuscripts for dozens of earlier, lesser known works of William Shakespeare. Apparently these are early drafts of his more famous works and will be featured in an upcoming series of shows co-produced by PBS and Comedy Central. Check local listings for time and channel:
