My pet peeve - which is the same with many other DIY shows - is how
they repeat much of what you've already seen when they come back from
a commercial.


It's not just DIY shows. A lot of Discovery, Learning, and History
channel shows are like that. It's a way of stretching 10 minutes of
information into an hour show.


Yup, and if you watch enough History Channel you'll see the same photos and
film footage and animations used over and over, including when their use is
flat-out wrong. "When the German army invaded France in 1940...."--umm,
yeah, they apparently were equipped with Russki T-34 tanks, how surprising.
