Comments

Fairly good video, audio is fine. Just turn de-interlacing on. That show itself was pretty good. If you want to see a good documentary then watch The Union: The Business of Getting High, best marijuana video I've seen. American Drug War is also very good.
Excellent film, much more balanced and fair than almost any other documentary on the subject. Interviews the DEA agents who are not, as they like to point out, involved in the decision-making process in regards to prohibition. Also interviewed are the scientists and cancer victims who favor decriminalization, medicinal marijuana, legalization, or some combination thereof.

The rip itself is good quality:
