A docuseries that continues to evolve along with its iconic subject, Ric Burns’ epic history of New York City returns with two new episodes (concluding Tuesday), profiling the ever-changing metropolis in the quarter-century since 9/11. The series premiered in 1999, with a special epilogue produced in 2003 focusing on the World Trade Center in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks. The new episodes, titled “Shadows of the Past” and “The Future of Cities,” were filmed over the last decade with narration by Robert Sean Leonard, taking over from the late David Ogden Stiers. Interview subjects include former New York mayors David Dinkins (who died in 2020), Michael Bloomberg, Bill de Blasio, and Eric Adams.
