Oh and what would you suggest is a better TV documentary? You do realize that's the context of the comments, right? Not just in general...

Fair enough- but I honestly don't know of any documentary that does what you're suggesting- they're all for the greater audience, and the majority are really not terribly good (like the new Battles BC crap show, for example)... my comments were in the context of the population- The Spartans beats the hell out of anything from the History Channel and a lot from the Discovery Channel... even the BBC; What the {blank} Did For Us was a fun show, but as much for the passing interest group you menitioned as most LOL

I have rented the DVDs, or seen most of these on television, nice to have a way to re-view some of them, without having to pay for dvd rentals again!
Thanks!
