To celebrate the 100th anniversary of paleontologist Barnum T. Brown's discovery of a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton, Discovery Channel presents this amusing and intriguing "biography" of the huge dinosaur and his life as a media darling. Through archival footage, movie excerpts and interviews with scientists and grumpy rivals such as King Kong, the portrayal of the Lizard King through the decades and his influence on modern culture are scrutinized.

Behind the Life of Chris Gaines poster
8.0

To promote the release of his album Garth Brooks in... The Life of Chris Gaines, Garth Brooks appeared as Chris Gaines in a television "mockumentary," a version of VH1's seminal cable classic Behind the Music, featuring a totally made-up tale that just may be the greatest rock n' roll documentary ever made. This piece of art has everything that makes the story of being a rockstar fucking cool. It has childhood trauma, record label trauma, death, disfigurement, a plane crash, a car crash, sex addiction, redemption, a house fire, random unexplained commentary from Billy Joel, and more sex addiction.

The Sonny Bono Story poster
NR

Sonny Bono ranked as one of pop-rock's most visible and famous musician/producers of the mid- to late '60s; and in the '70s, he was one of the very few successful musical-variety personalities on American television. His work and career straddled the eras of Brill Building pop, the British Invasion, and folk-rock, right through to 1970s pop. His talent and keen sense of where popular culture was heading sent him and his partner and wife Cher into the birth of the counterculture and through to a post-rock career in Las Vegas and onto television and politics.
