Michael Moore Live
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michael Moore Live, a 1999 television show featuring political advocate Michael Moore, ran for one 6 part series. It was shown on Channel 4 and aired in the UK only, though it was broadcast from New York.
The show had a similar format to The Awful Truth but also incorporated phone-ins and a live stunt each week. It was filmed around midday local time, which due to the time difference made it a late-night show in the UK.
The live phone-ins all featured UK viewers, and questions were mainly about American policy at the time, e.g. gun control and the war in Kosovo. Each week, Moore was joined by guests, and one of the regulars was an illegal UK alien in the USA. Throughout the show, he had to wear a rubber Richard Nixon mask.
