On Saturday, the whole afternoon was taken up about North Korea. I watched all of them. I was very impressed with the journalist that documented, through his visit to NoKo, how brainwashed they really are. I watched the one with Lisa Ling when she went over with the doctor to perform 100 eye operations in a day because that's the only amount of time NoKo gave him. Did those blind N. Koreans thank him when they could see? Nope. The worshipped the "Dear Leader" and thanked him over and over. It is sad but scary at the same time how they do not know the real world. The film of all the people crying and screaming when Kim Jung Il died was real! The absolutely do worship their leaders. The pictures in their homes are only posters of the leaders.

If you get a chance to watch these programs, do so. Then we can be more thankful for the freedoms we have.

I haven't watched many Nat Geo documentaries, but have watched many Nat Geo nature shows.  I always enjoy David Attenborough narrating.

The documentary series that you mentioned about North Korea sounds very interesting.

Haven'watched but will look itbup.may have seen it before.  They are so controlled  by their leader Kim Jung ungy. Remember think it  was lisa Ling  who is  great. She sat down to look at fashion magazines and they were taken from her.  They didn't want to give girls any ideas, can you imag8ne.
