Your favorite Documentary series?
(edit: thanks to Temis for reminding me what I should have called this genre.
)
And by that I don't mean this artificial, preselected, prewritten, predetermined crap that passes off as reality TV. I mean *real* reality TV, consisting mostly of videos of actual events - some sent in by the general public, others collected from sources such as police and fire departments. These are actually some of my favorite kind of TV, not because of death or destruction (some of it is actually kind of funny, such as one bit where a cop is chased by a turkey) but because it's...well, real, you know? And it shows just what our police and fire departments can be up against.
So does anyone else watch this kind of stuff? And if so, what is your favorite?
Mine is Disorderly Conduct. Partly because of the fast pace (all the clips are set to music, with Robert Patrick as a perhaps-overenthusiastic narrator) and partly because some of the clips have the STUPIDEST criminals you will ever see in your life. Like this for example...
