 A first part of an excellent six part series which examines modern life and considers the impact of our relentlessly changing world upon key values that used to make western society something to aspire to.
Each episode is packed with pearls of wisdom and a lot of food for thought.
Concepts are well presented with rational arguments and good examples - helping to justify the often disappointing new realities it reveals.
The documentary is Australian, but applies to all western countries.

 The Simpsons and Philosophy
The D'oh! Of Homer
Edited by William Irwin, Mark Conard, and Aeon Skoble
Popular Culture and Philosophy series
The Simpsons is one of the most literary and intelligent comedies on television today—fertile ground for questions such as: Does Nietzsche justify Bart's bad behavior? Is hypocrisy always unethical? What is Lisa's conception of the Good?
