Too cool for subject

Documentaries are a never ending source of disappointment these days. The dumbing down, the constant recapping just in case you didn't get it first, second or third time. I particularly hate all those documentaries about the natural world with their intrusive soaring/majestic music and a presenter who sounds like he's in a constant state of awe and ecstacy. Look mate, I want to say, just get a grip and calm down. I know it's not the same thing but... can I come in the crabby and crusty corner too.

Oh please do! I have warmed the cushion on the naughty stool for you.

The hideous and unbearable Blue-Petering of documentaries is a source of constant rage for me these days, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. About the only presenter of the ilk I can tolerate is Neil Oliver; he can dumb me down anytime he wants to Fnrr fnrr. ::rude gesture, naughty smirk::
