It's completely soul destroying to watch. I can't explain how much I hate shows produced in this style. It's completely shallow entertainment, at no point are you able to connect with anyone or anything that's happening.
The "firstly" and "secondly" you refer to are pure US production values. They treat everyone as if they have the attention span of a GNAT so a lot of their programmes are full of flashbacks, flashforwards, and talking heads about the thing you just saw about 7 times. An average 30 minute...
