Drain the Oceans

The concept of the show is interesting but the narration, repetition and presentation ruin what could be a very good show. Phrases like 'opened up like a can of sardines', or the endless questions such as 'What could cause this incredible damage', 'can the wreck tell us what happened' (duh - if it didn't you would have an episode) are annoying right from the start and get more annoying with every episode. I finally resorted to watching the show closed captioned so I did not have to listen to all the false drama.

The worst one is for a episode on 'Hitler's Killer Warships' when the wreck of the Hood was investigated. Somehow the producers of this show seem more intent on patting themselves on the back rather than acknowledging what is already known. In this case there are several shows that have already investigated this battle not the least of which is the James Cameron documentary (2017?). Even the movie 'Sink the Bismark' in 1960 seemed to have the facts.

I will certainly not be tempted to add National Geographic to my TV channels when the free preview expires.
