Louis Theroux The Odd the Bad and the Godly
Louis Theroux, our favourite BAFTA award winning journalist once again returns to the small screen in this excellent six part documentary showcasing some of the strangest ideologies and most bizarre people and institutions from around the globe. Even though Theroux has been accused by some to twist his interviews into making the subjects seem more nefarious or down right stupid, this is definitely not the case.

Rather, Theroux is only just a catalyst and his thoughtful and sometimes provocative questions often lead the interviewees to highlight their extreme views which generally verge on the unbelievable and or the ridiculous. With that said, the success of Theroux is definitely his fish out of the water style of journalism that in the Odd, the Bad and the Godly lead to some amazing situations, theories and topics that will leave you craving for more.

All in all, Louis Theroux the Odd, the Bad and the Godly is a very insightful yet disturbing documentary about some of the world's darkest corners and secrets that truly makes you appreciate the country that we live in. Although Australia is plagued by its own problems, it pales in comparison to what Louis Theroux has carefully crafted together. This collection is definitely some of Theroux’s best work and comes highly recommended!

The first film in this series is perhaps the most shocking. America’s Medicated Kids casts sharp focus on the families and doctors of Pittsburgh as they sweep to judgement on children as young as six by medicating them onto anti-depressants and suppressants in order to curb their alleged “disorders”. Theroux keeps at a far more objective distance than such documentarians as Michael Moore would and as a result those responsible for their charges are damned by their own actions rather than any direct political rhetoric.
