''Documentary Now!'' is an American mockumentary television series on IFC, created by ''Saturday Night Live'' alumni Fred Armisen, Bill Hader, Seth Meyers, and Rhys Thomas, with Armisen and Hader starring in the series and Thomas co-directing. The series spoofs celebrated documentary films by parodying the style of each documentary with a similar, but fictitious, subject. Helen Mirren serves as host for the series, which is executive produced by Armisen, Hader, Meyers, Thomas and ''SNL'' creator Lorne Michaels. The episode "The Hunt for El Chingon" premiered online on August 10, 2015, followed by the regular television premiere on August 20. The series has been renewed through season 3. ==Development== On March 20, 2014, the series was announced under the working title ''American Documentary''. ''Documentary Now!'' parodies well-known documentaries—such as ''The Thin Blue Line'' and ''Grey Gardens''—but with fictitious subjects. British actress Helen Mirren serves as the host for the series, to add ''"gravitas"'' to each documentary. Each of the six episodes is shot using different styles of documentary filmmaking, and "honors some of the most important stories that didn't actually happen."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ifc.com/shows/documentary-now/about )〕 The idea for the series was born on ''Saturday Night Live'', where Armisen, Hader and Meyers were former cast members; in 2013, Armisen and Hader portrayed faded British punk rock stars in a segment, ''Ian Rubbish and the Bizzaros: History of Punk'', made in the style of ''This Is Spinal Tap''.
