An interesting program from NOVA I received through Netflix about the debate over intelligent design in the town of Dover, PA. The debate began as supporters of intelligent design attempted to have it included in the science curriculum. Two school board members quit in protest, teachers refused to teach the controversy, and the issue was eventually taken to court. The judge ultimately ruled that ID is not science and that the introduction of it in the Dover science curriculum was a violation of the separation of church and state. As the intelligent design debate continues, this is a good program to watch.

You can read various court documents here.
By far, my favourite documentary on this debate is Flock of Dodos.
