how is it even possible to make a program concerning exploration of uncharted areas and potential discovery of new species so appallingly dumbed down and irritating?

We get sh*t about Global (cant say Warming now, Gordon) Climate Change, sh*t about the rain forest getting chopped down. We get a guy whos so yappy and irritating hs caving buddy appears to be trying to arrange an accident for him. Said cave takes up 50% of the show and is nothing more than an empty wet hole in a hill. Theres a bird with lipstick on in the f**king jungle and a sshhhhhh!! whispery scottish guy.

Its like they took the concept of IACGMooH, mixed it with the retard narrator from Mythbusters and gave everyone involved in production a lobotomy.

The BBC have here taught us that there are no animals in the rainforest worth more than 5 seconds of camera time so f**k it lets chop it down and make shelves.

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

Tbh I stopped watching documentaries around about the time they stopped being about the subject, and more about the people talking on camera :( Its a shame as I feel they are/were a great tool for providing a basic level of information to the masses. I do sometimes feel like Im missing out, but quickly change my mind when I decide to watch one again.

Prime examples being that free-diving bint who spent more time talking about how scared she was of the sharks, with more camera time on her and not the animals, and some lost plateau documentary where they were going about the presenter being the first people to step on this plateau, yet they failed to point out that the camera was filming FROM the plateau...

Its the same when they show the big rat. 5 seconds of big rat and 2 mins of retarded scientists.
