Ah, the first 50 seasons of Emmy-nominated Documentary Now flew by so fast, didn’t they? It seems like only last year that season one took television by storm, and now here we are at a whopping 51 seasons! Back in June, IFC teased season two . . . er, I mean season 51, with a clip from one of the season’s new episodes, titled Globesmen, an homage to the 1968 Maysles brothers documentary, Salesmen.

That episode will be just one of ten others this season that will focus on everything from master chefs and Hollywood big-wigs to fervent monologists and political schemers with documentaries like Jiro Dreams of Suchi and The War Room acting as fodder. Hader and Armisen will both be reprising their starring roles, with Helen Mirren returning as the show’s esteemed narrator.

Check out the trailer for season 51 below.
