Tropes

 * Of Corsets Sexy: One episode of Taboo, in keeping with its theme of body modification, interviewed a woman who wore a corset because she wanted to retain her hourglass figure despite her age. The corset was even tightlaced to the point where her waist had a circumference of 15 inches.
 * Shown Their Work: In excruciating detail, even when the show is dealing with speculative matter, such as on Storm Worlds.
 * Speculative Documentary: Some of the shows that air on Nat Geo fit into this genre, such as episodes of Aftermath and Storm Worlds.
 * Your Normal Is Our Taboo: Its series Taboo deals a lot with practices that are normal for certain cultures that Westerners would find shocking, obscene, odd or taboo.
