Stephen Fry in America
Interesting outsider's take on all 50 states in 6 episodes. Well sort of. He skims quite a few, including Pennsylvania, which surprised me given it's size and massive role in American history. It's fairly hit-or-miss, and a little more research on his part would have certainly have made it better and made him look a lot less ignorant (for example, Queens, New York, home to 2.25 million people from a very broad range of ethnicities, he describes as an "Italian neighborhood"). Nevertheless, parts of it were pretty good, especially episodes 3-5 where he covered the middle of the country. In these segments he managed to squeeze in plenty of local flavor, interesting information, social commentary and humor in a way that I found both informative and entertaining. I just wish he could have done as good a job with the rest of the series.
