"Documentary Now!" is an acclaimed American mockumentary television series that premiered on August 20, 2015, on IFC. Created by Fred Armisen, Bill Hader, Seth Meyers, and Rhys Thomas, the show is famously hosted by Helen Mirren and skillfully spoofs celebrated documentary films by meticulously mimicking their distinctive styles with entirely fictitious subjects. Armisen and Hader frequently star in episodes, with Thomas and Alex Buono co-directing most of the series.

The idea for the series stemmed from a Saturday Night Live sketch by its creators, with Bill Hader citing Woody Allen's mockumentaries like Take the Money and Run as key inspirations for its serious, dry tone mixed with absurd humor. Renowned for its meticulous parodies, the series has continued to be renewed, with its fourth season premiering on October 19, 2022, having consciously avoided replicating the styles of famous films such as This Is Spinal Tap.
