I am not looking to be preached at or learn something complex - that is what books are for.
This makes a great show to have on while making small talk, reading, playing silly iPad games or just to veg out to. Beautiful scenery, funny contestants, simple explanations. If you have ever built a sand castle you get the general idea for most of it and can have an appreciation for the work and artistry involved. It does't explain all the nuances as if I will some day try this (HA!) myself. But then I don't want an instructional video.
I really like the host. Some hosts talk and I want to tell them to .... Well shut up. He talks the right amount, is well spoken, and to the point. He doest the obligatory talk to the contestants but not in such a way as he seems to interrupt them or have "what do I say now" moments. Some of the other hosts could learn something from him (cough glass blowing cough).
Overall, I enjoyed this and do not regret lost time due to watching this. Though having them literally race the tide would be great, as in tide is in and sculpture is gone - yeah I am mean. Tide has run off with many a sand castle, it's part of it all.
