Serengeti (2019)
The visuals are great, but everything else is tepid, at best
I have not seen the first season, but believe me, Serengeti II is just as bad as these reviews for the first season. Did they already have the second season ready to go?
There is no attention to the writing and no educational value whatsoever. I'm not sure if it's Lupita Nyongho's grasp of the English language or just really awful, lazy writing, but I feel like it's both. It seems like whoever was in production would've caught onto these lapses.
They also give the lead animals insipid names. And all the animals have the same emotions just like humans have emotions, so silly. Like another reviewer said: very Disney-fied. Very dull in the end.
Myths & Monsters (2017)
Waste of Time
This show has 90% fun graphics/gifs, some of which are nice. It is 10% informative, but repetitive.
The transitions are so long that the 4 episodes I forced myself to watch could've easily been done in 45 minutes. You can clean your house, do the dishes and Instagram the whole time and not miss much.
