Drunkboxer posted:A new Ken Burns documentary series on the Roosevelt family started last night. I guess most people know what to expect from Ken Burns by now, but I still really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to the more Eleanor centric episodes because I know the least about her. I'm probably going to spend my Saturday catching up with this.

I would read this. I've only ever seen the Civil War but I found out most of his stuff is on Netflix so I'll try to catch up on it when I have free time.

Gringo Heisenberg posted:Any suggestions for organized crime documentaries? Mafia/Russian organized crime/cocaine era gangs/whatever. I remember there being a couple Russian organized crime/prison gangs documentaries that were well received a few years ago, but I can't remember any of their names. I just finished watching a 30 for 30 documentary on Netflix about the Boston College point shaving scheme and it was pretty entertaining.

mod sassinator posted:The first episode of CNN's new documentary series The Eighties premiered Thursday last week and is really really good. Definitely worth tracking down through whatever means you have for finding TV shows online. It's produced by Tom Hanks, just like their past docs on the 60's and 70's. The intro for it is a major nostalgia blast, here's all of them: I think The Sixties and The Seventies are on Netflix now too.
