Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History is an unofficial documentary webseries created by Geno Samuel, which began in February 2018. It is, as the name suggests, an extensive, in-depth documentary about Chris's life, similar to Sachumo's. However, while Sachumo's film is an abridged summary of Chris's life for newcomers, Geno's videos go into greater detail, with most videos being between 35 to 45 minutes in length, with a decent portion of this being tied to the playback of Chris's own audio and video.
The documentary series began on 14 June 2018 and covers select events ranging from how Chris's parents met in the 1980s to Chris's arrest on 1 August 2021. Currently running at 85 episodes, the series has far surpassed Geno's expectations of how in-depth it would be when he first began developing it. As of Part LXXXV, the runtime for the documentary series is quite extensive at over two and a half days. The series went on hiatus after the release of Part LXXXV on 17 March 2024, and is now slated to resume in November 2027 once the series' "remastered" editions are finished premiering weekly starting on 21 March 2026.
The series is composed of material Geno personally believes to be relevant and/or interesting, and it leaves out the remainder. In an April 2023 comment, Geno stated that he was "evermore trying to make [the episodes] move faster by cutting out irrelevant stuff", adding that he wanted to be finished sooner. Even still, Geno has claimed he intends to continue the series until either he or Chris dies.
