Documentary Now parodies the current obsession with documentaries. Season one features six different stories and stylistic approaches paying tribute to the doc format.
Fred Armisen and Bill Hader immerse themselves in the mockumentary genre with this offbeat six-part series that lovingly parodies notable documentaries and "honors some of the most important stories that didn't actually happen."
If the show's creators can keep coming up with fresh takes on their subjects - and their track record suggests they can - Documentary Now! will deserve a long run.
Documentary Now got picked up for its second and third seasons even before its first episode aired, so we can't wait to see what Hader, Armisen and Meyers have in store next week.
