I love The Ascent of Man. Bronowski's presentation style and the camera work (e.g. a wide shot of some landscape with Bronowski narrating then you notice actually he's a couple of hundred metres in the distance walking by) amuses me to no end, but it's a great watch. I haven't heard of the others you list, so I'll check them out, thanks. Some of my favourites: Microcoosmos Anything by David Attenborough Capturing The Friedmans Anything by Louis Theoroux The Music of the Primes (this was technically a 3 part series, but it's a great look at the mathematicians who have tried to find the secret to the prime numbers, most of whom drove themselves insane) The (R)evolution of Immortal Technique - a documentary about political activist/musician, great watch
