Format
For Dummies is a documentary series. Each half-hour episode focuses on a single subject based on the various books it is based on, such as Accounting, U.S. History, Gardening, similar in form to the book series on which it was based, with most being based, in part or in whole, off of existing book titles at the time, with few exceptions. Each episode is narrated by the author of the book published but narrated by a celebrity if the author died before the making of the show. Each episode focuses on a different topic and breaks it down into easy-to-understand concepts, using humor, graphics, and interviews with experts. Each episode opens with a brief overview of the topic and why it's important to learn about it, a brief history of the topic, including key events and figures, an explanation of the main concepts and terminology related to the topic, and a summary of the main points covered and why the topic is worth knowing about.
