Connected: The Hidden Science of Everything

Nevertheless I watched all episodes. Great topics, some things you might already have heard of, some not so much.

Sometimes there was very important information missing. Like in the episode about clouds. It's crucial to know about the downside of using chemicals to make artificial rain since over more then 50 years! This effects the nature of course in a bad way! Would have been nice, if he could provide more information from all sides.

But instead Latif Nasser's only comment on this was something like: "Wow, can you imagine, we can make the clouds rain!" ... That's about the way he ends every conversation with his interview partners. His voice not only sounds annoying to me, but the way he talks makes this show seem to be made for under 8 year old kids. With his over and over repeating phrases like ...Oh, wow, can you believe this?!... Oh, wow... really?! ... He comes across like an idiot, totally unnatural and exaggerated. I have nothing against goofy or wacky, like some reviewers call his way, but if you go for it, there needs to be a bit of good humor too.

That's just not the right way to talk to adults and teenagers.

My conclusion: Latif Nasser would rather fit in a children's show, even then the target group should not be older than eight years. With more depth to the topics and an adult host, let him/her be serious or a comedian, I don't care, this show could become more popular. Everything else was really good, the topics, the camera, the editing, the interview guests...

Netflix, it would be worth a try and change the host, please!

Outstanding and very informative. Don't shoot the messenger; some of my best teachers were whacky.

I'm 43.

The host is a bit like a young Bill Nye, meaning his enthusiasm seems kind of fake/rehearsed. Obviously the show is heavily scripted though, so a fair amount of acting is required of him. That being said, he does a good job of presenting the information in a way that would appeal to inquisitive tweens and teens, and still manages to be engaging and entertaining for adults.

I learned a great deal from season 1, and I genuinely enjoyed it as a source of engaging entertainment. If you're a teacher, have kids, or are an inquisitive adult, check this show out.

To be honest, I would like to see more episodes. There were also topics that seemed completely absurd. The digits episode was extremely bad and ridiculous. However, I enjoyed the other episodes. Latif Nasser clearly enjoys science, as evidenced by his actions. However, their behavior can be bizarre at times. Shaking his head very quickly, saying "wooooow" or his eyes, etc. Overall, I enjoyed this documentary series. I think the topics chosen were also good. As I said, I wish it had more episodes. Three years have passed; I am curious if there will be a new season. It was a great idea to show animation while talking about the past or something that happened in the past; I really enjoyed those parts.

Interesting and really high quality documentary. But I had to agree. The host is so terrible and annoying that it is really hard to watch!
