At nearly 6 hours long I can confidently say that some things should just be a very long blog post. There's no way I can parse and digest a complex argument about popular media via a youtube video of that size. It's just...I got stuff to do.
I don't understand long format videos because to me they only exist because of two reasons
the researcher has done an enormous and thorough job on the subject which requires lots of detail to understand
the producer had lots of content and was too lazy to condense it all so they just mashed everything together and let the viewer figure it all out themselves.
The best and most informative documentaries to me are an hour or less .... if I'm going to watch something longer it's going to be a series of well produced and well written episodes created and produced by writers, researchers and presenters who carefully present the content in a clear concise way.
I am not going to watch a six hour slog written and produced by someone I've never heard of and has little to no credentials in writing or producing.
I don't mind independent projects but at six hours long, I really have to be convinced by someone significant to spend that much time.
One of the longest documentaries I ever watched was - 'Hypernormalisation' - (2016 by Adam Curtis, an award winning BBC documentary film maker)

At almost three hours long, I had to watch it over two or three days. It's a lot of detail but a well thought out story line to give you an insight as to how and why the world is what it is today. This is the kind of documentary that I enjoy sitting through for long periods.
I’ll going to give it a shot tomorrow. It’ll be nice background noise before the holiday 🎄 Hopefully I’m not about to wreck my suggestions, I’ve been burned before!
