Documentary Now! is a mockumentary television series created by Fred Armisen, Bill Hader, Seth Meyers, and Rhys Thomas. Armisen and Hader star in many episodes, and Thomas and Alex Buono co-direct most episodes. Hosted by Helen Mirren, the series spoofs celebrated documentary films by parodying the style of each documentary with a similar, but fictitious, subject. The third season of the series premiered on February 20, 2019. The series was renewed for a fourth season on October 19, 2022.
Documentary Now! presents itself as a long-running news magazine for documentaries. Mirren appears at the beginning of each episode to introduce the "classic" documentary that the audience is about to see.
