Documentary Now!

Some episodes were very good. "Batsh*t Valley", "Searching for Mr. Larson", "Gentle and Soft" are some of the good ones. "Original Cast album" and "Waiting for the Artist" are painfully unwatchable. I'm sure there are some who like that kind of thing, but it was a major chore to get through those episodes. "Final Transition" and "Any given Saturday Afternoon" were reasonably OK. Armison is great, and some of the guest stars make it interesting. Overall, it balances out to about a 6.

Brilliant and hilarious show that takes just the right amount of details from real docs. Wish we had more Bill Hader in later episodes!

I love this sense of humour based on characters having a great consideration for themselves, looking ridiculous from the viewer's perspective, with a pinch of cruelty and tons of nonsense. In short: the character doesn't know he's in a comedy. It isn't common in US comedy, more frequent in GB. This sense of humour requires a perfect execution in the filming and acting and I think that this series has brilliantly achieved it. I'm not an easy laugher and I'm usually the guy with the poker face in the cinema when everyone is exulting. But watching this show, I think I've disturbed my neighbours with my unpracticed heavy laugh. I particularly appreciate the introductions.

My family and I really enjoyed this series. It's hard at times to remember these are Mockumentaries, because the acting, writing and stylized editing make it seem like you are watching an actual documentary.

I never saw any of the documentaries that they spoof but every episode was still funny to me.
