Dan,
Is it just me, or is China drawing a lot of American doc makers right now? Everywhere I turn I hear of a doc being shot in China. I guess there are a lot of issues there that can be covered esp. with its economic growth and the Olympics coming up. Actually I was born there and visit my relatives quite often. A few years ago I tried to shoot a project comparing the state of drug laws over there vs. here in America. It kinda felll through for various reasons but if you wanna read about what I was developing and shooting, here's my website...

Mr. M,
Intervention is a weekly series on the A&E network where we document real addicts and their families. Usually our subjects are alcoholics or drug addicts but we've had a few episodes on other addictions and we're trying to expand more in those directions for the future. Our format is pretty straightforward and observational-style. Our only major involvement is that we help the family try to get the addict into treatment, which is sorta the catch of the show. It's been running for several years now and is one of the highest rated programs on A&E. Hope you get a chance to catch it sometime!!!
