54 channels and nothing on. Not exactly (10,054 if you include shopping total crap channels), but you get it. More to the point is the time wasted looking for something remotely appealing then investing some time initially to watch only to have all hopes dashed and valuable time wasted.
With the "optimistic" angle mentioned, I figured it is great to know something surprising about an iconic historical figure which, for some reason, is hardly known.
A good start for my generation seemed the JFK episode. If any of this series should be worth the time this one should. Well, not so much. Watching on Hulu proved totally insulting due to immense number of ads which are likely worse than even when it originally aired on The History Channel. Uh...did someone at Amazon call Hulu and say: "hey, we've been way too kind (i.e. Stupid, you know running a business segment not greedy enough), anyway we're now inserting ads on Amazon Prime video even though our subscribers pay and have been use to free video and we're laughing (even more) to the bank. Perhaps refreshing Hulu on the P. T. Barnum axiom of suckers popping out by the minute was inspiring?
Greed, that's one thing, but O. K., content is king, right? Well of the ten things I didn't know only 2 made the cut. This is stretching things out largely already known to recycle history and repackage it with nary any imagination or reason other than to snare a sucker. I give it a 4 because it's JFK and someone born in the last decade might find some value. I won't be watching the other episodes as the combo of dashed hope and insulting number of adverts really ticks me off. If I can find a platform without annoying ads I might try season 2 as the Henry Rollins might be less BS like his persona?
