I have forgotten when I first encountered the documentaries of Rick Sebak, but they have enriched my life. They are all great, fun TV shows that you can sit down and watch with anyone. Kids like them because they are quirky and funny; older people like them because these shows so often pay homage to the past. Repeatedly, we have watched them as a family and enjoyed them more each time.

To be specific about “A Hot Dog Program”, Sebak and Co. go all over the country visiting hot dog stands. Sebak maintains that hot dogs, unlike hamburgers, have not become standardized products of cookie-cutter-same chains. So, he finds lots of interesting, quirky places and talks to the people he finds there.
I am always amazed at how natural and engaging all these people are. Sebak clearly puts them at ease and catches them at their best.

I was amazed at the variety of types of hot dogs, and how each region of the country is so protective of their regional way of preparing, dressing, accompanying their dogs. New York style, with a side of papaya juice? Chicago style, loaded up with stuff? Southern style, with slaw? It would be worth the road trip to find out in person.
I would recommend this to anyone, but especially to parents who want something really interesting and entertaining to share with their kids. Teachers might also like it as a “jumping off” point for discussions about regional differences, respecting others’ tastes, etc.
By the way, I like all-beef hot dogs, grilled, with yellow mustard and relish (but not that Chicago-style neon green stuff), served on a fresh, lightly toasted bun. A side of fries or potato salad is nice, too.
This classic documentary is formally about hotdogs, and it chronicles many memorable eateries. But at its core is a marked populist sensibility. We the people are the stars: Americans of all kinds (some tourists too), united by hunger and satisfied by a perennial favorite meal. The film contains much more: witty, charming interviews in many distinctive dialects and accents; explorations of ethnicity, oral culture and oral history; roadside architecture; regional rivalries, self-made entrepreneurs, and of course that ultimate gross-out institution, the eating contest. The only drawback is probably unavoidable. A film celebrating Hotdog Nation (no Fast Food Nation, not here) has only fleeting comments on nutritional shortcomings, though clearly some HDs can be quite healthy. There is a brief scene in a hotdog factory, not because “if people saw ‘em being made, they’d never eat ‘em again,” but strictly for context. I’ve seen it twice and will watch again—it’s a great teaching tool—and spend a couple of days each time fulfilling that craving. And I always saw myself as a hamburger guy….D. Gabaccia, “We Are What We Eat” and H. Diner, “Hungering for America” cover similar themes and more as well.
