While this series has a formula to pit a less desired perspective (anti-immigrant, anti-gay, anti-Muslim, etc.) against a more desired one, it does produce very interesting material about many contemporary controversial issues. I use several of these episodes in two of the university courses I teach to improve students' understanding of and empathy for some marginalized groups. The episodes are funny and awkward and do not skirt the difficult questions. The individuals (and the people they meet) are generally relatable characters, which can help develop some understanding of how good people develop biases.

This is a great idea, but maybe the 1 hour time-limit per subject was the problem. The first sequence, "The Minimum Wage", had great dynamics with Morgan Spurlock and his fiancé. They touched on the subject of Health Care for the working poor; it is outstanding if you are brought to the hospital needing a heart transplant, for example, because it will all be paid for as a life-threatening condition. However, if you need preventive care, you may have to stand in line at the Free Clinic depending on the availability of physicians. When Morgan had to go to the ER and subsequently received a bill for $551, he was incensed at what he thought was a ridiculous charge...how did he THINK the FREE heart transplants are paid for? We can't afford to let hospitals close for lack of making enough money to cover expenses. Some of the other sequences lead to insights into leading a "Green life", "A Gay Life", "An Illegal Immigrant Life", which really opened my eyes onto these lifestyles in a good way. Then there were lackluster sequences which really needing expanding upon such as "A Christian Life vs. Atheist", "Binge Drinking Mom", "Jail" (what exactly was being exposed or what point was being made?), "Anti-Aging" in which a man took an unimaginable number of supplements every day until his liver almost shut down, etc. For instance, in the "Outsourcing" episode, I learned a lot about living in India, but I'm not sure what the point was being made about "Outsourcing". Morgan Spurlock is fascinating to watch, and I'm almost sure that if he starred in every episode we would have learned what point he was trying to get across. Sadly, that didn't happen. There are 18 episodes and about half of them either get their points across or I learned something new that made it worth the time.

i don't find all of these too interesting or rather don't have the interest or time to spend watching all these. Paged through some. He's got some good ideas.
