Louis Theroux is a funny documentary maker who produces all sorts of television programs that are more on the left side of television viewing.

They’re not exactly mainstream, but that’s what makes them good!

He’s actually the son of famous travel writer Paul Theroux, who has made gazillions from his travel books such as The Great Railway Bazaar and Dark Star Safari: Overland from Cairo to Capetown.

I’m guessing Louis probably caught the travel bug from his father somehow! But he just expresses his travel stories in a different way!

Louis Theroux – Documenting the Weirder Side of Society

Anyway, Louis seems to like seeking out the more offbeat and unusual subject matter for his programs which often means he’s travelling somewhere to interview a lot of people that have been marginalised by society.

And for some reason, a lot of these people live in the United States! A lot of his shows have been based there!

What he’s really good at though, is holding up a mirror to society to see what is reflected back, and it’s captured on film forever!

He also uses his dry British humour and wit a lot, which is probably why I like watching his stuff. It’s so much better than the boring mass produced crap that seems to land on the television screens night after night. This is actually real ‘reality’ television!

For example, saying the rather dry line ‘that sounds a little bit naughty!‘ is a phrase he has used when describing a particular extreme scene from an adult movie on a documentary he was making about the United States porn business. And he said it with a straight face, which is something I find hard to do!

To get an idea of some of the out there stuff he covers, here is an excerpt from one of his documentaries about America’s most dangerous pets, which is about why some people like keeping animals like lions and baboons in their back yards.

Some of the interesting subject matter he has covered in the past include:

  • brothels
  • neo-Nazis
  • jails
  • survivalists
  • porn stars
  • infomercials
  • swingers
  • born again Christians, and
  • UFOs

Anyway, check out some of his stuff at Weird Weekends and Louis Theroux: The Collection – The Strange & the Dangerous.

But he also does a good job on the more serious side, as he’s covered issues in the Middle East, and also more recently, life in Los Angeles with his LA Stories series.

By the way, if you’re googling yourself Louis, please contact me because I would love to interview you! I’m sure it would be a cracking one!

Weird Weekends

You can check out the official Louis Theroux website and follow @LouisTheroux on Twitter.

Anyway, see more at Louis’ book titled The Call of the Weird: Encounters with Survivalists, Porn Stars, Alien Killers, and Ike Turner.
