L'art de l'espionnage

I absolutely cannot tolerate the narrator. He mispronounces everything, will say the same word three different ways. Why didn't anyone edit this more carefully? It's an interesting shoe but comes across very unprofessional because of the narrator.

... I cannot sleep without having joined in with the chorus of complainers. I hope that Dylan Berry (as listed in the credits) is never employed again, after having worked on this series. To be unable to properly pronounce words, and/or names, is just ridiculous. He is definitely "out of his league".

However, to be totally fair, the Production team should also be cited, for their complete lack of oversight. The lack of intelligent narration should have been caught, and corrected, before this series ever hit the air. It's complete sloppiness that this didn't happen.

The content was interesting, but the narration just continuously drove me crazy. I was cringing on a regular basis, instead of absorbing the programming.

Some interesting content let down by the narrator sounding like he can't be bothered and the captions that give facts on terminology flash up so fast, you only get to read the first line without pausing the program.

Everyone else has already said this but if for some reason you see this review before the others, the narration of this show sounds like a high school senior project. It's really bad. Having said that, it's actually an extremely interesting topic and is presented quite well. I recommend. My recommendation means nothing. Thank you. That is all.

Overall it's a nice watch. It's informative, but somehow leaves you feeling as if it barely scratches the surface. Most of the presented stories feel rushed through. But the worst part of the entire experience is the bad narrator - if a foreign name/word had to be said, it would 10 times out of 10 be mispronounced. The most shocking one of all being the Spanish "atención" butchered as "atentschion", but not too far behind all Slavic names.

In short - interesting topic, exciting details, mediocre execution.
