All the latest Louis Therouxs. All were great.
Watched the first of the latest Attenborough (Dynasties) - pretty good.
Watched the first episode of DOGS on Netflix. It was a bit too much about HUMANS and not enough about DOGS, in my opinion.

Making a Murderer Season 2 was interesting. I've been on and off the fence a few times about whether they're guilty or not. The series as presented doesn't give a very balanced view so you have to go digging for The Truth.

Saw that three identical strangers on channel 4 the other night. It was excellent.

Would thoroughly recommend Searching for Sugarman as well.

Thanks I will check it out .
Free Solo, which won the Oscar is worth checking out just for the jaw dropping climbing scenes
Also one from about 10 years ago Dear Zachary
You will need tissues, and no it's not a doc about the porn industry.
😁 .
Don't Google it watch it without prior knowledge
Watchdocumentariescom is the place to go.

Stutz on Netflix. Jonah Hill made a documentary about his therapist. Absolutely loved it.

The Spotify docudrama The Playlist

Made the mistake of having the dubbed (American English) version for the first episode and it was just weird. Switched to the Swedish with subs and it was much more enjoyable.
