The 
CBC will be broadcasting ‘Homo Sapiens: the rise of our species’ at 7:00 PM (EDT), as part of David Suzuki’s show ‘The Nature of Things’.
According to the show’s description, ‘Homo Sapiens’, a part drama/part documentary, was produced by the same team that brought us the visual imagery of ‘2001: A Space Odyssee’.
For a refresher, you may want to look up the (always excellent) ‘Becoming Human’ site, which discusses the evolution of humans in editable terminology.
