Written word has become performance art

While consuming these shows/content, there comes a point when I start to wonder why I'm watching a reasonably pleasant-looking man, reading off a teleprompter/autocue, talking at express pace, rushing through the material, deploying forceful tonal voice modulation, manipulating facial expression and using a lot of hand gestures. I feel like a passive student in a non-interactive classroom, with an energetic teacher putting on a jolly good show.
