i found some links to some great Louis Theroux documentaries.
been watching 'em all morning.
i love his show.
some really great work.

i really appreciate his ability to display personality and the people behind their bizzare beliefs or actions.
even when he's investigating people with such extreme attitudes like white supremacy.

i've missed most of the episodes this series though.
i caught the las vegas one though, very interesting.

Yeah i am a HUGE fan although i have missed a lot of episodes too. Im hoping they have a Louis weekend on UKGold or something soon.

The last one i saw was about those people who were protesting the funerals of gay soldiers.

It was shocking.

The teenage girl was so full of how special she is. It gave me a good insight into why some people are so blinkered and self-centered.

Oh the jimmy saville one was ground breaking, there was this guy who we thought we knew according to his public persona. It was a complete shock to see what the real man was like. I think this is what makes Louis's documentaries great.

I love how he gently asks questions and the subjects literally put themselves in deeper and deeper. The more they try to hide something the worse they look.

I loved the swingers one too. I loved when they went to the garage sale and he asked the lady "is this the sort of couch you would use at a swingers party?"
