Episode 9: Tax Me if You Can
In "Tax Me If You Can," FRONTLINE correspondent Hedrick Smith investigates the rampant abuse of tax shelters since the late 1990s. Through interviews with government officials, tax experts, and industry insiders, Smith uncovers an avalanche of bogus transactions -- created by some of America's biggest and most-respected accounting firms, law firms, and investment banks -- that were then aggressively marketed to big corporations and wealthy individuals.
Episode 4: Dangerous Prescription
In "Dangerous Prescription," FRONTLINE® investigates the integrity of America's drug safety system. Through interviews with current and former FDA officials, critics, a pharmaceutical industry representative, and consumers, the one-hour documentary examines the FDA's handling of several drugs that were approved but later were pulled from the market after causing injuries and even deaths. The program also examines the role that drug companies play in the approval and monitoring of prescription drugs, and questions whether the FDA's current system is adequate for protecting the public.

Episode 2: Chasing the Sleeper Cell
FRONTLINE and The New York Times join forces to go deep inside the war on terror at home in "Chasing the Sleeper Cell."

Episode 12: Diet Wars
Americans spend $40 billion a year on books, products, and programs designed to do one thing: help us lose weight. From Atkins to Ornish and Weight Watchers to South Beach, today's dieters have a dizzying array of weight loss programs from which to choose -- yet the underlying principles of these diets are often contradictory.
In "Diet Wars," FRONTLINE examines the great diet debate. Viewers follow FRONTLINE correspondent Steve Talbot, whose discovery that those "few extra pounds" have put him perilously close to the clinical definition of obesity prompts him to evaluate the myriad diets now available to overweight Americans.
Episode 1: Truth, War, and Consequences
Did America rush into a war in Iraq for which is was unprepared? Could the volatility in Iraq have been prevented? FRONTLINE takes an in-depth, behind the scenes look at what some government officials said was the underlying cause of America’s problems in Iraq: prewar political infighting that hampered efforts to plan for an orderly postwar transition.
