Citizen Recap: 30 Days Working in a Coal Mine
Did you think I forgot to watch the season premiere of 30 Days, with all of Tuesday's Democratic nomination wrap up, and the accompanying speech mania? Well, don't worry, because even though this recap is a day late, I still caught the episode which had filmmaker Morgan Spurlock working under the earth's surface for 30 days as a West Virginian coal miner.
Morgan spent his 30 days living with 35-year veteran miner Dale Lusk and his wife Sandy.
TV Tonight: 30 Days
Whether you love him or hate him, you have to admit that Morgan Spurlock knows how to provoke — on screens both big and small. The third season of the Super Size Me director's TV show, 30 Days, premieres tonight on FX, full of new perspective-changing assignments for people who want to spend a month seeing how someone else lives.

Let's Watch Season Three of Morgan Spurlock's 30 Days
Morgan Spurlock of Where in the World is Osama bin Laden fame is kicking off season three of his TV show 30 Days on June 3 (that's a Tuesday at 10 p.m.) Since Liberty and I don't always see completely eye-to-eye, we're excited to watch the show — and pick sides to root for. The show takes a look at social issues in America by making people live an alternate life that requires them to "see the world through another's eyes" for — you guessed it — 30 days. The season includes these topics: working in a coal mine, animal rights, living in a wheel chair, same-sex parenting, gun nation and life on an Indian reservation.Where in the World is Osama bin Laden? In Theaters!
I must have been in a cave this weekend — or so busy talking about Ben Stein's Expelled that I completely forgot to mention that Morgan Spurlock's new flick, Where in the World Is Osama bin Laden opened this weekend. I've been following this film since way back, and now that it's out it sounds like part of a perfect afternoon — a nice double feature of intelligent design and terrorist hunting. Buzz would approve.Sundance Review: Where in the World Is Osama Bin Laden?
Morgan Spurlock may be a documentary-maker searching for truth in this crazy mixed-up world, but he’s also largely an entertainer. His work, especially his latest doc Where in the World Is Osama Bin Laden?, falls into the category of "infotainment" — with an emphasis on the "tainment."
The movie starts with Spurlock describing his awakening from a blissful life to the reality that his wife is pregnant.
Where in the World Is Osama Bin Laden?
Morgan Spurlock, director of the fantastic documentary, Super Size Me, is expected to hit the Sundance Film Festival, with a brand new creation titled, Where in the World Is Osama Bin Laden. Solidifying Morgan's reputation as a bankable name, the Weinsteins' impulse bought his new pic at the Berlin Film Festival after only seeing 15 minutes of it.
Buzz is that Morgan, during his 800 hours of footage and extensive travel over the entire Middle East, actually found the elusive bin Laden.
