Louis Theroux – The City Addicted To Crystal Meth

Sunday 9 August
9.00-10.00pm BBC TWO

Louis Theroux visits Central Valley, California – home to some of the most impoverished rural towns in America, where crystal-meth addiction is among the most prolific in the USA.

In Fresno, Louis finds a community ravaged by this cheap and highly addictive drug. It is hard to find anyone whose life hasn't been touched by this drug in one way or another.

As he infiltrates the town, Louis comes face to face with meth abuse as addicts invite him into their homes. He becomes surrounded by the madness of daily addiction and the meth-addled confusion which is breaking this society apart.
 
I can't wait always enjoy his shows.
I have just seen the one with the most hated family in the US on you tube.
God i swear there all drugged up.
 
^ I keep recommending them to a friend, but he's yet to get round to them. But he never misses a Ross Kemp one.
 
I thought it was interesting. Not as eye-opening as some if only because of my limited experience in drug rehab, but well worth watching.
 
I think he's trying to become a 'serious' journo.
Well to be fair he was always a "serious journo" he just did it in an odd way about off beat things.
I just think he was more disturbed by all this than he anticipated. The whole people literally caring more about their drugs than kids and the brother and sister having sex thing was fairly disturbing, and you're talking a full city of it?
 
It was an ok episode, bit of a poor mans version of the Philadelphia one a while back.

Much prefer his Weird Weekends from back in the day. I was watching the Thai Brides one the other day, so funny
