The mind works in mysterious ways. I suddenly thought about "Sex and the City" and what do you know, the actor was in it. I was thinking about John Corbett. And the show is "The Visitor". It aired between 1997 and 1998.
It seems like I was off remembering him as being an alien. I still believe ha had some powers though:
"Adam MacArthur, who disappeared 50 years ago in the Bermuda Triangle, has returned to save humanity from destruction. Chased by the government s and aliens who abducted him, he travels across the United States to help people."
Unfortunately not. It is to old. I know for a fact that I saw it in 1996 or later. Generally speaking, we where up to a year behind when the shows aired in USA, so it could be a show from 1995 but not earlier.
I have found more information. The former FBI agent Frank Pellegrino, that is mentioned in this article*, is probably one of the two that was talking in my documentary (the other one might be "John Anticev", also mentioned in the article). It also mention that he had never been on camera before he was in one episode of "Inside the FBI: New York" (S1E6 Ground Zero to Chelsea), which was released 2017-06-01.
In other words. My documentary series, must have been released later than that.

Weirdly, I found a podcast* produced by WNYCstudios, called "Blindspot". The first season is about 9/11 (Season 1: The Road to 9/11). And it's 8 episodes seems to go through pretty much the same content as the series that I am looking for. But I can not find any information that this have any connection to a video series.

While we are at it. I have also checked out these:
"Race Against Time: The CIA and 9/11"
"Manhunt: The Inside Story of the Hunt for Bin Laden"
"The Man Who Knew"
"The Looming Tower"
"Bin Laden: The Road to 9/11"
"Frontline: The Al Qaeda Files"
Thank's for the reply. I had already checked out about half of the documentaries on the list. Now I have checked the other ones and none of them seem to be right:
"9/11: One Day in America"
[Is a series, but doesn't focus on the hunt for the terrorists.]
"9/11: Inside the President's War Room"
[Is a movie and only focuses on George W. Bush.]
"Turning Point: 9/11 and the War on Terror"
[It is a series and I thought that this could be the right one. It turns out that I have seen it, but it isn't the one.]
"Spike Lee's NYC Epicenters 9/11➔2021½"
[This is a series, but is focused on survival in NYC, not specifically 9/11.]
"Ten Steps to Disaster: Twin Towers"
[Is a series, but only one episode is about 9/11, the rest i about other disasters.]
"Stories from the Stage: Changed Forever 9/11"
[This is a series, but only one episode is about 9/11.]
"Rebuilding Hope: The Children of 9/11"
[This is a movie about 4 children, that lost their fathers in 9/11.]
"Memory Box: Echoes of 9/11"
[This is also a movie.]
"Women of 9/11: A Special Edition of 20/20 with Robin Roberts"
[This is also not a series and only focuses on women.]
"Too Soon: Comedy After 9/11"
[This is a movie that focuses on comedy in the aftermath of 9/11.]
"No Responders Left Behind"
[This is a movie about a social activist that wanted to help first responders get health and compensation for the toxins that they were subjected to.]
"The 26th Street Garage: The FBI's Untold Story of 9/11"
[It is about FBI, but it is still a movie and focuses on one specific location.]
"9/11: The Legacy"
[Also a movie.]
"Rise and Fall: The World Trade Center"
[A movie that only focuses on the history of the buildings.]
"9/11: Four Flights"
[A movie that only focuses on the hijacked flights.]
"9/11: I Was There"
[A movie with recordings from different people that was there.]
Yes! Thank you. :)
No wonder that I couldn't find it. I was sure that the series had something with maps in it's name, since it was such a big part of the series...
"We probably won't every see a real HD Version of Farscape."
Actually, we will! :)
"Fans of Farscape, the cult sci-fi show from 1999 that features a lost astronaut, deadly mercenaries, and puppets, are in for a treat. All four seasons of the Jim Henson Company series, newly remastered in HD, will be available to stream on Amazon Prime Video on March 19th."

No, not always in the office. No. not Peep Show either.
Thanks a bunch SomeCodhopper! Perfect World is the right one.
MovieChat to the rescue again. :)
That's the show that I mentioned in my first post. That's unfortunately not it, but it's famous enough that it will popup in every search on the net.
