I definitely prefer documentaries over docudramas.

I definitely prefer documentaries over docudramas.

yeah, but neither has hot women in them, so I prefer steamy historical fiction. hahaha

What do you think of documentaries?

It all depends on the quality of the production. I have seen some dreadful product of both types, and some damned good programs of both types.

They both have their place. The documentary of Caligula's life starring Roddy McDowall was good viewing, but so was the docudrama series on HBO Game of Thrones.
