The UnBelievable with Dan Aykroyd (2023) S2 E20
random000 2 points 6 months ago.

Overall this season was very consistent & thankfully not too gross. It hearkens back to older shows such as In Search Of with Leonard Nimoy, 3 different Arthur C Clarke shows World of Strange Powers, Mysterious World & Mysterious Universe.

Those are the ones with much the same tone as this & Shatner’s show. In the early 80s there was also Real People, That’s Incredible & Ripley’s Believe It Or Not with Jack Palance. There were a few reboots of that one, but they were not as good & mostly gross.

Dan’s show sometimes has classic trivia from anyone of those shows, but nicely has original presentations that weren’t previously televised somewhere else.

His camera people need to knock off the weirdo unflattering camera angles when he introduces bits. That nonsense isn’t necessary. Their job is to make him look good, not to make art film snippets of a dude past his prime. Stick to standard journalistic looking straight at the camera shots, or go home.
