The viewer doesn’t need to be told what they can see, and that’s the issue with having very good radio commentators (who paint a beautiful picture with words) doing TV commentary , where you need to compliment the image with insight.
It’s a difficult job and the 2 1/2 hr stint I did was challenging, so over three days I dread to imagine, but currently it’s very muddled.
that's a good way to put it, they're doing radio commentary on a TV broadcast; unsurprisingly it quickly wears thin on the audience, especially when said audience is mainly composed of enthusiasts
