These actually don't really fall under the topics that you cover as it's about current events, but by far the best documentaries currently being made are by Vice
http://www.vice.com/video

They really show that the world is a more fucked up place than comfortable white people in the first world would like to think. Here is a good example:

I'm currently enjoying "The Inexplicable Universe with Neil deGrasse Tyson" on Netflix.

It's a series of lectures - nothing new for someone very familiar with the topic, but interesting and entertaining nonetheless.

For those with short attention spans (me most of the time) the "How It's Made" series is fantastic. Most segments run 6 or 7 minutes.

Even with my manufacturing and defense contractor background, it is absolutely amazing to me how much of all the stuff we buy is almost entirely made by machines.

Those PBS shows on King Tut and the Silver Pharaoh were fantastic.
