Verborgen im Eis - Geheimnisse aus der Vergangenheit

Some of this subject matter is really interesting, but this format of getting 'experts' reading scripts with zero conviction is painful. I'm looking at you Abandoned Engineering.

It's so obvious that they're reading a script they read two minutes ago.

Nothing is as annoying as the voice over though. The exaggerated intonation is beyond annoying.

The stuff is interesting enough on its own, you don't need to deliver the voice over like a 1920s fairground huckster.

Please please please fire this ham and get someone with some delivery skills.

In conclusion.

Lose the faux experts and get another voice over.

I like the show, however, when Tyler Irving (a Science Reporter) said "these ones" in a sentence about the craters in the Witch's Hole I could not believe my hearing. Really Tyler. It's "this one" or "these".

The ENGLISH voice over narrator continually pronounced nuclear as nucular! It's like nails on a blackboard.

Random "experts" weigh in with stilted reading of some terribly written pseudo exposition. It is written at about a grade 6 level and delivered woodenly by these people who couldn't act or voice-over a commercial for ass cream.

This is the exact same formula used by a multitude of shows like this in regular rotation on the History Channel, Cottage Life as infinitum. The only saving grace is the fact Andrew Gough hasn't popped his smarmy head up yet. And a fair bit of the topics really have nothing to do with ice or anything frozen in it. So once again, stretched out and overly dramatic topics explained by the world's worst actors.

I'm enjoying this series. It's something a bit different, plus I find ice endlessly fascinating! Some other reviewers seem to find the variety of possible theories given, annoying, but I don't mind this at all. It teaches you other facts about different cultures, geography, geology etc. The only thing that really annoys me, is the narrator's voice!
