With Ian Peacock.
Jim Carrey's new film, The Truman Show, features a man whose entire life is a 24-hour, live television show. Is this a metaphor for America itself, which increasingly lives through the TV? In this surreal programme inspired by Baudrillard, we meet a Texan rancher who argues that television violence is part of American heritage, a Californian raw-meat enthusiast who feels the real America has moved on to the internet, and a New York presenter who only makes television about television.
