"Is It Real?"

[Tea Earl Grey Hot]

I think this is on Netflix. Yes, and it's in my Instantwatch list. Looks pretty cheesy.

I watched an episode of the one with John Noble. Great production values. Same old shit.

I've got a season of Ancient Aliens on disc. The thing is, there's so much fascinating real shit to learn about that watching crap like this is just wasteful, unless you do it for the lulz.

I just discovered that there's a shitload of TEDtalks on Netflix, that's both awesome and real.

I've seen those shows. This one is different however because they pretty much debunk the believer's argument in every episode by interviewing mainstream scientists. They also regularly feature notable skeptics such as Michael Schermer, James Randi, and others. I think it's great because it can introduce people to the principles of skepticism and thorough investigation. All the other pseudoscience shows I've seen like ghost hunters, Bigfoot hunters, Nostradamus etc, are much more on the side of the believers.
