Looking for some new recommendations. I've watched most of the well known ones. Just watched "Somm" it was super interesting. Crazy to think there are people out there who literally put that much work into their craft. Need some new recs though

Literally anything with Ken Burns' name attached to it. I've already watched all of them on Netflix

"Dear Zachary" was pretty solid, but if was pretty sad too.

I enjoyed the following:
Shiek
Mel Brooks Makes a Noise
I Know That Voice
That Guy Who was in That Thing
Generation Iron
Pumping Iron
Strong Man
Muscle Shoals
Video Games The Movie
Atari: Game Over
Virunga
I know you said you watched the well known ones. I am not sure which ones on that list are "well known", though I figure several are. Thread was kind of quiet so I thought I would throw them out there. Was never a big Doc watcher until we got Netflix.

My favorite show on Netflix that's fits the Doc genre is Anthony Bourdains Parts Unknown.

My wife watched Somm a while back and I caught the tail end of it. I need to watch it from the beginning.
No No: A Dockumentary (about Dock Ellis, a pitcher in the 1970s, who is famous for throwing a no hitter on LSD. He was an interesting cat who became a drug counselor.)
Cropsey (about all these tales of a boogy man in Long Island. Turned out the state shut down a mental institution in the area, so you had former patients hanging around, plus high school kids would go to the abandoned mental hospital to scare the shite out of themselves/fool around/get drunk and high)
Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon (About this guy who is Alice Cooper's manager. He's a great storyteller who knows everybody)
