King of the Olympics, Part 2 (1988)
Part One of the made-for-TV King of the Olympics recounted the efforts of Avery Brundage (David Selby) to mount the first modern Olympic contest of 1896. Part Two re-recounts what we've already seen. While the rare film clips of the pre-20th century games are fascinating, the surrounding story is a four-hour yawnfest. The full title of this top-heavy effort was King of the Olympics: The Lives and Loves of Avery Brundage, which frankly promised more than it could (or would) deliver. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
