The show is great, the host can go

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.
