In a tiny town of Dover in eastern Pennsylvania, in 2004, the local school board ordered science teachers to read to their high school biology students a statement that suggested there is an alternative to Darwin's theory of evolution called "Intelligent Design." NOVA captures the emotional conflict in the historic six-week trial, Kitzmiller v. Dover School District, which was closely watched by the world's media.

Professional Reviews:

"...the dramatized courtroom transcripts in this special edition of NOVA are far more successful than any print account at illustrating the conclusiveness of the pro-evolution arguments..." - Andrew Johnston, Time Out New York

"...a rigorous television documentary..." - Adam Rutherford, Nature

"Judgment Day is just the sort of thoughtful programming that celebrates how sensible people - faithful and otherwise - can use science and reason to combat fundamentalism." - Adam Rutherford, Nature

"...a two-hour special not to be missed..." - Kevin McDonough, United Media Syndicate

"...demanding television ... the rich scientific detail[s] require strict attention. But the result is rewarding, eye-opening and, in some sense, frightening." - Joanne Ostrow, Denver Post

"In the end, the two-hour film shows that teaching evolutionary science is not incompatible with religious beliefs." - Joanne Ostrow, Denver Post
