Producers

Adam Curtis

Brilliant BBC wizard Adam Curtis mashes up film, science and music in blinding ways, turning standard documentaries on their head. No wonder he’s barely seen or known in the United States, and can be found mostly on the internet. His most fear-inducing series, 1995’s The Living Dead and 2004’s The Power of Nightmares, analyzes how technocrats, mad scientists and political opportunists turn raw data into literal destruction. In The Living Dead, World War II horrors merge with controversial electro-shocker Donald Ewan Cameron and political reactionaries like Margaret Thatcher with seamless skill. In The Power of Nightmares, Curtis knits the utopian ideologies of al-Qaida and American neoconservatives together, with volatile blowback. Always thought-provoking and heretical, Curtis uses footage from the BBC vaults to make his arresting cases. He’s the scariest documentary filmmaker ever to splice a reel, especially for Halloween viewers looking online for some real-time fear.

Jump the Shark

http://www.tvguide.com/jumptheshark

In 1987, Jon Hein and his roommates at the University of Michigan were drinking beer and had Nick at Nite playing in the background. They started talking about classic TV shows when someone asked, "What was the precise moment you knew it was downhill for your favorite show?" One said it was when Vicki came on board "The Love Boat." Another thought it was when the Great Gazoo appeared on "The Flintstones." Sean Connolly offered, "That's easy: It was when Fonzie jumped the shark." As Hein later recounted, there was silence in the room: "No explanation necessary, the phrase said it all." Thus was born an expression that would quickly make its way into the pop culture mainstream, defined by Hein as "a moment. A defining moment when you know from now on … it's all downhill … it will never be the same." If I had been in the room, however, I would have broken that silence of self-assuredness, for I wrote that now infamous episode of "Happy Days." http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/la-et-jump-the-shark-20100903,0,6800871.story
