Roger Rules!
Well, I finally got to see some episodes of Extreme History. Mom Schrade
has been taping them & gave me the cassette on New Year's Day.
What a bang-up job Roger does! He's really quite the host! He sort of
plays up to his tough guy persona during the narration/explanation parts.
He's "acting" just a bit. But it's cool.
He's very friendly with the show's experts & they all seem to get a big
kick out of him. It's at these times when he's really being himself.
Plus, he's funny! I can understand people not taking to his sometimes crude
jokes but I think they're hilarious. Besides, Roger has always had a crude
streak. "Fuck a duck!"
I almost wish the shows were an hour long instead of only a half hour.
The show seems to be a bit rushed at times.
I hope the History Channel uses Daltrey for more episodes. It made me re-
alize again that Daltrey isn't as dumb as he's made out to be. He obvious-
ly understands & is interested in each show's theme. And his diction is
very clear.
I only watched about 4 episodes last night & I can't wait to watch the
others.
Bravo, Roger! The Heart of The Who! And dare I say its new leader?
LONG LIVE ROGER DALTREY!!
