do you despise "minced whitefish" editing....?

Question

i am drawing an analogy between tv programme editing and fish products!

on the one hand you get lovely long interesting substantial chunks, that you can feast your eyes [and metaphorically - your teeth on]

and on the other you get just a mass of shredded little tiny bits of "minced whitefish....none of which last even as long as a full second........and instead of giving you a visual area to explore at your leasure while you listen to the commentary, you're battered by a blizzard of tiny cuts that make you feel like youve gone ten rounds with mike tyson......after just a couple of minutes of the programme.

for the second time in two days ive had to turn the t.v off because i cant stand being visually "abused" / or visually raped by an intrusive editor.

is the "minced whitefish" editing style only suitable for the low attention span retard audience, that watches mtv.

and should programmers sack talentless editors who just try to conceal their lack of talent behnd qikstyle

Answer 1

I agree. Don't chop everything up into mush!

Answer 2

The BBC is a prime example.
You get wonderful wildlife programmes, king prawn with succulent flavourings.
Then you get the "Dancing, Variety on Ice, Lottery Draw"shows. Minced whitefish that I would not even serve to my cat.

Answer 3

No...
