Drain the Oceans

I went on a binge of all the current "documentaries" on Disney+ recently and they are all basically unwatchable. They literally annoy you the whole way through. But you sit and deal with it for the few minutes of interesting information each episode.

I would easily pay to see these edited by a sane person. Music GONE. Repetitive narration, catchphrases GONE. Recapping what you just watched over and over GONE (and punishable by prison time).

It's like every documentary has this cookie-cutter template. I simply can't imagine anyone enjoying how they chose to edit these.

If you're up for some brutal punishment to see some interesting stuff, dive in, and have your trigger finger hovering over the fast-forward button, so you can keep skipping ahead.

...and don't forget to "Drain the Oceans"!

Why on earth can we not have history presented to us without hyperbole, without excessive adjectives, without mindless musack and without this false tone of voice designed to hype up moronically weak editing and try to turn it into something impressive. The information is impressive, let it speak for itself - it really does not need sauce, mayo and seasoning. I would have got it off my screen in double quick time had my other half not decided he would push past the pain in order to get to the bare facts. It was a struggle.

"If we could drain the ocean!" was annoying the first time. After hearing it 15 times I felt compelled to create an IMDB account and shut it off. Did the director/producers ever bother to watch this?

It would be great if you could work on Lake Champlain and Lake George they are both very big lakes and contain a lot of history under the surface

Just watched the episode The Battle of Britain. It is so inaccurate. At Dunkirk it shows a Destroyer H88, it says that the ship is HMS Wakeful, in fact this ship is HMS Havelock, which survived the the war.

It then says HMS Wakeful was bombed and sunk, again this is wrong as HMS Wakeful also survived the war. This so inaccurate, I was going to check about Narvik but lost interested in the programme. If you are going to make a documentary surely facts must be correct. The commentary is so slow and uninteresting it is so off putting. The music is too loud too, clearly not made for the UK audience.
