There's a British magician/hypnotist who embarked on an amazing little experiment to take an ordinary man and turn him into a "faith healer" to expose the lies, greed and sometimes needless death that comes from this "industry".
Its probably the best documentary/reality show ideas ever and it had me glued. They created an entire background and website for this guy, taught him how to hypnotize people, and sent him to Texas (of course).
Here is the website they completely made up
Here is the show documenting the entire adventure from the actor selection process, to training him, to visiting other faith healers incognito etc. Awesome television that I'm guessing could never be made in the US.
Its hard to watch sometimes because they blatantly deceive good people but they do a good job of explaining that their mission is worth the momentary deception.
