About documentary tv shows
The docuseries boom changed the rules for documentary television. The glossy true-crime and celebrity series that dominate the conversation are commissioned exclusives — they stay on the service that paid for them and essentially never go free. Older and quieter documentary series behave the opposite way: nature, history and science programmes have one of the deepest free catalogues in television, spread across Tubi, Pluto and the free tiers. Before starting a subscription for one documentary, check the where-to-watch panel — if it isn't one of the prestige exclusives, there's a good chance it costs nothing.
