All of them are really well done, but my favorites are The U, The Pony Excess, and the Reggie Miller one.

I really like the first one about the band of the Indianapolis Colts. Really good story.

Escobars.

But I love probably 75% of them.

These 3 are the best.

The Best that Never Was is a near perfect documentary and one of the best of any genre.

The U is just a fan video. It's everything the series isn't: an uncritical fanboy apologia for his favorite team, with no actual story or analysis. I actually judge people who say its their favorite. Either they are big Miami fans or they just have lousy taste in movies.

I don't watch 30 for 30 for a glorified fan video. The best, to me, are ones that take old stories in interesting ways (The Band that Wouldn't Die) or tell me a story I didn't know that well (Against the Wind, The Best That Never Was).

But everything takes a backseat to The Two Escobars. That thing is amazing.

Two Escobars
The one on Reggie Miller vs. the Knicks

The U one was idiotic. It sure had a lot of "swag" doe.

This.

I had high hopes for this one because I thought there'd be some really good behind the scenes stories. But no, it was just a group of guys who haven't moved on telling glory day stories, giving the impression that they never lost a game.
