History Channel - America's Book of Secrets

Is anyone watching this series? I am really enjoying it.

 

The host is Lance Reddick, and I don't recall ever seeing him in anything, but I understand he is an actor with lots of great movies to his credit.

 

I find it interesting to watch his body as he talks. I don't think I have ever seen anyone put so much punch into using their diaphragm for speaking. That's probably taught in drama classes to help project. Each breath he takes, his whole upper torso take a big leap upward. I see that same thing in opera singers.

 

I really enjoy his voice and his delivery as the host. I would watch him in other things if he is involved with other series.

Call me addicted.  I put a post out there the other night then decided to delete it.  This past week's episode was actually scary that it really could be happening.

@Just Bling Agree with you. But it appears this has been going on for years and years, so I'm sure it has only ramped up in today's world.

I think Ken Burns was associated with this show.

I enjoy watching that show very much. The show has been running since 2012 with  different narrators. Lance Reddick, the most recent narrator, played the part of 'Phillip Broyles' in the FOX sci-fi drama series titled "Fringe" (J.J. Abrams) which was one of my all-time faves.

He does a lot voice overs for many video games and movies, too.
