Nostradamus: 21st Century Prophecies Revealed (2015)
Music overwhelms dialogue
The constant high level of never ending music drowns out over 50% of the narration. It never stops. I quit watching after 10 min. Because of how annoying it was. I am an audio enginner with GREAT hearing.
Sadly, this is the problem with many younger sound engineers with poor ears to know the correct mix. I find the dialogue in many newer movies in the past 10 years to be bad in this way. It is mostly due to improper digital mixing and monitoring, by not considering "perceived" volume over measured volume and BALANCE. It does not need to be constantly playing which causes listeners fatigue.
Music is to enhance the feel and support the dialogue, not overwhelm it.
Pure Genius (2016)
Inspiring show with positive message
I loved this show, and felt extremely inspired watching. With all of the negativity on the TV these days, what a breath of fresh air to see something so positive! The story line of merging technology with medicine is a wonderful concept and brings hope to those who don't have any. This show left me feeling uplifted!! The cast was great, and so was the story line!!!!!
Unfortunately those in charge of programing continue to push garbage shows which do not elevate the mindset of those watching. Reality shows are an example of mindless trash programs promoting bad behavior as a means to becoming rich and famous.What does this say about our society? Too bad for audiences who appreciate substance over trash.
I was very disappointed when this show was not renewed, because our society needs these kind of inspirational shows to overcome the damage created by the negative mindless trash shows the networks dump on the American public.
It is no wonder so many people suffer from depression in this country with all of the negative input coming from sensationalized news and negative reality shows.
