HBO - Addiction
 
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has helped to create this series for HBO that focuses on alcoholism and drugs. It is 90 minute documentary with around 5 hour supplimentary series (14 parts). The 90 minute documentary is a gist of 14 parts of supplimentary series. The addiction series tries to link go (pleasures) behavior to control (frontal lobe) behavior and how lapses between these create problems in personal life/family/society.

Why internet/sex/porn addicts, shopoholics are missing in this series? These are invisible WALKING GHOSTS in our world. HBO/RWJ should have created couple of more episodes (in supplimentary series) on internet addicts, sex/porn addicts, shopoholics which is another threat to developed countries.

BTW, you can download all 14-part supplimentary series as podcast if you have itunes software. Check http://www.hbo.com/addiction/index.html and click on 'download podcasts'.
