Little good it will do posting here, but History Channel has obscured any feedback paths to their programming department.
I really would like to watch this show. I managed to get through to the first commercial. But it's the sound. Rather, the NOISE. Their sound editor seems compelled to pull out all the sound effects he can find and throw it into the program at an unreasonably high volume. I have to crank up the volume to hear the narrator, which causes others in the room not interested in the show to scream to turn it down. It's very annoying to me too, especially that sound of someone dragging sheet metal off a truck. Really.

I gotta say I love this show. It really indulges your inner curiosities about a WIDE range of subject matter. What on the surface would sound like some documentary on a lackluster topic you'd watch in grade school, Modern Marvels makes fascinating.
Whether it's guns, engines, shipping, mining, plastics, or something as seemingly mundane as plumbing, Modern Marvels presents an entertaining and well-organized program taking you from the subject's origins to where it's likely headed in the future. This insightful program is highly recommended for those who have even the slightest curiosity, and who desire an understanding of the things that create our society.

Being a history lover and liking the past and remembering dates over the years I from time to time have watched "Modern Marvels" a series on the "History Channel". The series focus is on the past of inventions that involve food, technology, toys, buildings, and anything that you can think of being from the past that was made and was famous or became part of pop culture. The clips shown are also well done being educational and informative. Really a good watch if you like past history.
I love the show and watch it more than any other show. I love to see how things are made and to see what stunning accomplishments man has made. I'm often surprised by the unique looks into corners of our development not seen elsewhere. My grandkids like watching too and get the same enrichment as I do. I hope it stays on forever with one exception.
Sadly, that obnoxious fat guy with the bad jokes turns me off and destroys my joy in watching the show. He adds no value nor knowledge other than stupid wisecracks. His voice scrapes against the smooth presentations and sometimes makes me switch the channel.

I love the series, there is a ton of information available given in a fairly clear and concise manner. But season 21 and the addition of Adam Richman killed it for me. It became more if a sitcom one they tried to integrate having a host actually asking questions which could have been filled with more information as statements removing a ton of extraneous fluff.
So for now I give it 9 stars for everything up till season 20 and season 21 isn't worth a single star.
There are sometimes flaws in the statements made but they are generally pretty close to the truth and the information given can help open the minds of the people watching so that they are spurred into gaining even more information. I know I have learned more from this show than multiple years of public schooling.
