This poo poo sucks. Thanks for nothing Netflix for yet another lovely documentary series.

So much this. This is the loving ur-example of slapping a brand name on an already-finished product in a cynical attempt to boost interest. And the episodes themselves aren't even that interesting! Each one could've been a tight half-hour if they weren't so tediously overproduced, ugh.

I've been watching classic reruns on Pluto and even with repetitious ads for lovely conservative TV and MTV reality shows, it still holds up. Stack was a drat boss.

Low production values are part of the charm, and the original is a genuine product of its time. An imitation just would just feel artificial I think.

The closest inheritor to that style we have now is like... the whole Investigation Discovery channel.
