Episode 07 – Ludwig the Fairytale King

Why did they deliberately inject politics into what should be a German Raffi lesson?

Politics deliberately injected

Because it is produced by such distinguished institutions, I expected this to be much better than I found it.  I don;t mind it being oriented towards kids.  But there is so much wasted time--little musical introductions and interludes; the hosts being goofy; etc.  Also, I think it&#39;s a n odd strategy to make sure there is often lots of background noise to go with the short dialogues.  I get the idea of making things realistic in that sense.  But I generally found the staged dialogues pretty hard to follow, partly because of the sound quality and partly because the vocal they introduce is so unexpected: UFOs; shark fins; etc

Disappointing-too much wasted time
