  • Sensationalist, and a little fear mongering!

    Mispronounces the subject of investigation at every mention, even after being corrected (in episode 2). This just really bothered me because the point of "ClothOff", as you yourselves illustrate, is to create images of people with *clothes off*. Nobody is clamoring for whatever "Cloth Off" is; "I would love to see what the dining table looks like with the 'Cloth off'." — said nobody ever, obviously. more

All I ask is that you go back and read about the events of that time. Korea, Vietnam, Cold War, nuclear fear, collapsing Soviet Union, Rise Islamic fundamentalism…… recent history. Not from headlines, social media, but from well resear... more
