Dumbed-down History
This show was such a disappointment. The concept is compelling but the execution was woefully lacking.
The on-air talent make televised congressional session compelling. These people had none of the charisma (and I suspect academic credentials) of Schama. The diction, dialogue and presence of the on-air talent were so disappointing. The shame of this show is that it will not develop an interest by young people in history.
This looks like a cheap knock-off of Antique Roadshow....ugh!
Let me know if you liked it or didn't.
