Hall of Shame

source: Untold: Hall of Shame

I think I'm just a little confused. Conte was bad guy. Users got stuff from the bad guy Conte. Conte is beloved for pushing athletes to their potential (with drugs.) Athletes get stripped of their accomplishments while Conte still exists in his own world. I feel like after watching this that I was trying to be convinced to like this guy for his "innovations." This is a very confusing documentary of which I'm already quite well-versed of the real story. I hope in the future that these Netflix documentaries can take a better stance on these atrocities (drug creator and peddler vs user.) Not really sure this is worth watching.

Ever since the Untold series started there's been issues with the audio, with the music playing over interviews, some of the episodes in the first season were unwatchable because of it. Everyone is aware of it but the creators haven't changed the way the docs are produced. Same issues with this episode and the Johnny Manziel one; constant loud music playing over the interviews. It's as if they're afraid to let the documentary breathe and feel the need to fill every available second with noise. Shame, because this is one of the more interesting stories. It's fascinating to hear people openly discuss doping and their intentions to win at all costs.

I love this series and this episode is one of the more fascinating ones. But I'm begging the producers to *please* rethink how you soundtrack these. The music makes it almost unwatchable - it's loud, annoying (is it from Bugsy Malone??), and unnecessary for the most part. Why do we need to have music at all when someone is simply being interviewed? The worst culprit was the earlier episode about the Danbury Trashers where you could barely make out the voices over the soundtrack, but this one is almost as bad. Rant over... other than that, this was a well told story about something I didn't know much about. Incredible hearing directly from Tim Montgomery in particular. Keep bringing us these great stories!
