World's Most Dangerous Gang, Nat Geo Channel, Feb. 12, 8 p.m.



An intense, behind-the-scenes look at one of the most violent gangs in America, this chilling documentary startles you not only with the savagery of the group, but also its pervasiveness and organization. Interviews with former members serve to reinforce the lengths that MS-13 will go to control its "businesses" and the competition. And I learned what "inked" means. --M.B. Grade: B

We'll admit a regional bias--this amazing account of the deadly MS-13 gang grabbed us when its opening recounted the murder of a pregnant 17-year-old former gang member who'd snitched--her body was found near our suburban D.C. home. While MS-13 began in L.A., it's grown like a cancer, operating in 33 states and six countries. Nat Geo's Lisa Ling deserves combat pay for her work. --S.A. Grade: A-
