Fiver mentioned this documentary in this thread: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=425578&highlight=pugach](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=425578&highlight=pugach)

I just watched it tonight (thank you, NetFlix!) and was wondering if anyone else (or Fiver, even!) has seen it and what were your thoughts?

I found it entertaining, in a slightly nauseating Jerry Springer kinda way. It was kind of disappointing to learn that this was nothing new; that this couple had spent 40 years in the NY tabloids and been on every trash TV show ever. This documentary was just a rehash. Not that I’m from NY or have heard of these guys, it just felt vaguely disappointing that what seemed like such an outlandish story was, in fact, old news. I spose that’s what you get when you hand over co-directing reigns to [this guy.](http://movies.infinitecoolness.com/24/shortcircuit16.jpg)
