I remember watching some rather good American documentaries on various conflicts when I was a child, especially on world war two. But I am having some serious difficulties finding any documentaries made in the US in the last fifteen years that hasn't made me feel like drilling holes in my skull. Measurements in football fields, empire state buildings and statues of liberty. Repeating the same thing fifteen times. Showing the same section of interview multiple times. Ignoring the fact that there were in fact other countries involved other than America and bad guys.

WW2 in HD, surviving D Day, wings of the third Reich, all the rest that I gave up on within fifteen minutes of pressing play that I haven't even bothered remembering the names of. It's not just world war two doccos either. Great planes is awful, anything that has the word "secret" in the title, ANYTHING with R. Lee Ermy, ancient black ops, anything on ancient history is badly written, badly narrated and badly researched, or just seems that they're catering for total morons.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a modern US documentary that doesn't just suck? Everything I find is trash, I'm running out of YouTube links that don't have a red bar going partway across the thumbnail, and I've stopped buying them in case they are, well, American.
