The Awful Truth

Season 1
From the acclaimed filmmaker who brought you Roger & Me comes the most daring documentary show to hit the American Public since Moore's TV Nation: THE AWFUL TRUTH. Michael Moore, hailed by the New York Times as a modern-day Mark Twain, is at it again with the show that was shut down by the mayor of NYC, got Moore sued by a wealthy industrialist, and landed his Corporate Crime-Fighting Chicken in Disney World's very own jail.Shot in his signature guerrilla video style, each half hour episode is filled with scathingly funny observations that bridge comedy and controversy and places Moore in the middle of today's hot topics.
