Hipsters is an Australian TV documentary series, presented by Samuel Johnson and broadcast in 2015 on Special Broadcasting Service multichannel SBS 2.

The six-part series embarks on a global quest to understand the origins, meaning and future of the cultural stereotype that has become known as the hipster. It looks at how artisan cheese, craft beer, tattoos and beards evolve from being niche trends to hipster clichés. And asks why no hipster will ever, ever admit to being one.[3][4][5]
