Admiration for talent and character

I just viewed "Finding Your Roots" with H.L.Gates, S3 E1. I've long admired Mr. Burells work, am now also admirer of his character/humanity. Seems a most decent, intelligent, naturally humurous and empathetic person. The show itself is always a learning experience, but I found this episode especially enjoyable as seems a talented actor I admire is also a human I admire.
