Documentries of all kinds

[RiaX]

Hi there I've run out of documentries to watch so I decided to start this thread where we can put down our favourites and the newer documentries being released of TV. Please keep this to a proper documentry list and not pseudodocumentry entertainment programmes if you know what I mean

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Well, which have you watched? Through The Wormhole, The Story Of Science, The Joy Of Stats etc. are alll good. On the nature side of things, the BBC stuff is always good. Planet Earth, The Frozen Planet, The Human Planet.

I watch all the National Geographic Documentries when they come out, just go on these two websites which get all the documentries as they show on television.

There's a great deal of pseudo-scientific bull**** in there, let's be clear.

I made a conscious decision not to edit any nominations based on my own personal guidelines.

And, as always when the thread is mentioned, I need to update it.

Each and every one of them. Great list!

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Some great documentaries on evolution/biology, paleontology, etc. that have been put up here too: http://www.youtube.com/user/EvolutionDocumentary?feature=g-all-u

Kept me up many a night.

 

[RiaX]

yeah I recommend you watch all of those they extremely good

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Just finished watching BBC's Atom, was very cool. Thanks for the list, going to get some more of these.

 

[RiaX]

electricity awe and shock is a 3 part history of the science of electricity, hosted by the same guy that hosted bbc atom

Just finished watching How Science Changed the World, moving on to some Horizon episodes now. I can watch this stuff for hours, so much more entertaining than movies.

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Probably shouldn't have added Horizon to my Sickbeard library, it's had a new season every year since 1964. This might take a while.

 

[RiaX]

indeed I also rather watch these over movies
