Discovery Channel

Or more specifically, their “Big Science” series. I recently watched their Human 2.0 special, and it was interesting, but seemed to take all of its content down to the lowest bar possible and water it down with nauseating amounts of recap after commercial breaks, reused footage, effects, and sound bites, topped off with only tantalizing mentions of interesting subjects that the hour-long garbage pile only mentions. I was laughing at how overused the unneeded theatrical elements were, and was literally yelling at the screen for more facts and less meaningless filler timewasting! Discovery: If you’re reading this, assume your audience has more intelligence than one of those petri-dish brains you highlighted, and adjust the depth of your shows accordingly, please.
