This docushow is so boring it makes Ben Stein's performance in Ferris Bueller's Day Off look like a complete riot. The star/host seem to not care at all about the subject, and looks like he rather wants to be home. How can you make black history seem this bland and insignificant?

"High on the Hog" travels alongside host Stephen Satterfield as he (re)discovers the history of African American cuisine in America. While this docuseries was beautifully shot, I agree with user Dragen that it was a bit boring. The gentle demeanor of Stephen and the guests who he interviews gives the docuseries an overall dreamy, almost too calm of a tone. I did, however, thoroughly enjoyed "High on the Hog," and learned a lot. I look forward to the second season!

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. Seeing the food from back in the day as well as learning about different things I didn’t know was great. The progression of each episode was dope.
