annoying music during programmes

[Lesley]

The quality of programmes has declined but it is soooo annoying when trying to watch a reasonable programme and the loud music drowns out the naration, what the actors are saying etc ... all you can hear is the darn music ... so annoying !  Why on earth are all Directors etc doing it?  It isnt just us being elderly - our son and daughter in law also find the problem annoying ..

Very true what you say and should be stopped. Suffering with tinitus its bad enough trying to hear what they are saying with out that dam music

I agree, there is no need for a musical score to be present throughout, just on the bits where there is a perceived need to heighten the emotional atmosphere, or where there is no dialogue.

There is one film with no incidental music at all just the credit music. It is a war Film, One Of Our Aircraft Is Missing, and in my opinion music isn't needed, as the film is dramatic enough.
