For those of you that have seen “Super size meâ€? you know that Morgan Spurlock has a way of making the average person look at subjects such as obesity and fast food consumption in a whole new light. In the movie he ate nothing but McDonald’s food for a full 30 days, during this time he was plagued by various problems and was even told to stop what he was doing by his doctor. If you have not seen this movie I urge you to please go rent / buy it right away, odds are you will enjoy it (and learn something too!).

Morgan is back with a new original series that is airing on The FX, in it he and other people will be doing various things for 30 days at a time. In the first episode both he and his fiancé attempted to live on minimum wage for 30 days. Without giving too much of the story away I would like to say that this is much harder than it sounds (and is all but impossible).

The series will cover such things as:

* Anti-Aging (An ex-athlete goes on anti-aging drugs)

* Muslims and America (A Christian will live as a Muslim for 30 days)

* Straight / Gay (A homophobe will live the life of a gay man)

* Off-the-grind (2 typical Americans will have to live in an eco village)

* Binge Drinking Mom (A mother who is worried about her daughters alcohol goes binge drinking to show her daughters what she looks like in the state she is in)
