It's interesting to see how he recycles stuff from series to series. If you watch The Roosevelts and then The War, you'll hear the same stats and side notes mentioned.


I think that's ok tho. I mean it's all american history. There's bound to be some overlap. I do love the scores for his docs too. I know Civil war is basically just Dixie, Marching through Georgia, and Battle Hymn of the Republic over and over but the way they mix it up with the instruments and the tempos keeps it fresh to me the entire time. Plus I just love Civil War era music. It's all very distinctly American.

I think that he learned his lesson after the Civil War. Not sure if he planned on people binge watching the series, but, if you do, you're going to hear that damn violin theme to the point of nausea.
