AXS TV presents the network premiere of the Emmy® nominated and GRAMMY® Award-winning documentary, When You’re Strange—airing Wednesday, February 1 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
The creative chemistry of four brilliant artists – drummer John Densmore, guitarist Robby Krieger, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, and singer Jim Morrison – made The Doors one of America’s most iconic and influential rock bands. Using footage shot between their formation in 1965 and Morrison’s death in 1971, it follows the band from the corridors of UCLA’s film school, where Manzarek and Morrison met, to the stages of sold-out arenas. Said Depp, “As a rock n’ roll documentary, or any kind of documentary for that matter, it simply doesn’t get any better than this.”

About The Doors
The Doors’ arrival on the rock scene in 1967 marked not only the start of a string of hit singles and albums that would become stone classics, but also of something much bigger – a new and deeper relationship between creators and audience. Refusing to be mere entertainers, the Los Angeles quartet relentlessly challenged, confronted, and inspired their fans, leaping headfirst into the heart of darkness while other bands warbled about peace and love. Though they’ve had scores of imitators, there’s never been another band quite like them. And more than 50 years after their debut album, The Doors’ music and legacy are more influential than ever before. For more information, visit www.thedoors.com.
