called "meths deadly high"....a drug documentary of sorts. anyway im watching it cuz theres nothing else better on, and its still quite entertaining and informative in some ways. but damn it, some times when i watch one of these (aside from peter jenings "ecstasy rising", very well done. i recommend it to anyone who hasnt seen it) there is some douche bag narrator spitting out cheesy lines and scare tactics, among the well known amounts of misinformation at their disposal. pisses me off.
anyway, this ones not that bad really...most of what they are saying about meth is pretty accurate, at least from what ive witnessed when i dipped my toe in the scene a few years back. but the way they over exaggerate everything so much makes me wonder if im actually watching an infomercial. wait, is that billy mayes taking us on tour through the back yard meth lab?
like for instance, they just went to a commercial break (when im done making this post ill probably go finish watching it) and before the break they had to give us a little sneak peak at whats coming up next, ya know what im talking about.
and up next when we continue with A&Es special, meths deadly high, we take a look at the internet, and how the promise of fast and discreet delivery of toxic chemicals, could bring the lab.....DUN! DUN! DUN!
(in a deep slow dark scary voice) to a neighborhood NEAR YOU!
and also, we take a look at the ritual of a user getting his fix. ritual? come on man give it a rest. anyway, i think its funny the way they play the game.
-------------------- how's your WOW?

I watched this today. And was also annoyed by some of the shit thrown out there...they always complain about the deaths accumulating from STDs and such associated with meth. I dont know why they dont at LEAST support needle exchange programs, to you know, help the people with these severe health problems not infect others at least.
I heard a lot of the counsellors and some others refer to it as a "disease" - meth addiction that is. What a fucking joke. I can only assume they say this to ease the guilt most former addicts have tons of as of now.
all in all a pretty good look at a big problem going on right now

I saw this today as well. I thought it was good. Oh and the "ritual" was just the procedure 2 tweekers took to inject the meth into their veins and the two guys used the same needle, smart one!
I think one of the people working for the show even stopped the 2nd guy to tell him how sharing that needle could spread diseases. he just ignored her and went into business.
Has anyone seen a show on the Documentary channel called "Hofmann's Potion" about acid? Supposedly thats a channel im subscribed to and ive watched some shows on it, but when i tried to see that special on LSD it says the signal is lost. And its the only fucking channel that isn't working. tv is garbage man.
