- LargoLasskhyfv 6y agoI often feel the same about documentaries made for TV or DVD/Bluray. Even ones from National Geographic. While the production quality is excellent, I can perfectly live without dramatizing background music or sound effects. I often thought about some 45 to 60 minutes piece that they could have done that in 5 to 10 minutes without wasting my time.
