PBS has now published its full list of episodes for season seven of Finding Your Roots, which begins Tuesday.
The episodes trace the guests’ family history in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Africa. If I had to guess, I’d say the “Canadian” episode is the one about Irish ancestry with Jim Gaffigan and Jane Lynch.
