I just watched the first backdrop painting episode. Very enjoyable!

Lionel Strang is, to say the least, unconventional as a video host. But he is absolutely outstanding in that role! His rather droll sense of humor jumps out of the screen at the viewer (at least, at this viewer) and adds tremendously to the watchability of The Backshop episodes.

I've seen the earlier episodes of The Backshop, and each is better than the last.

Great job, Lionel!

Agreed

Its one of those things that you don't really think about, but having someone with a little personality and humour makes the program more "real" than just a talking head with no real expression.  The backdrop video is pretty good, too.

Yeh, that was too funny - Chris didn't even notice one of his brushes was missing...but Lionel and the audience knew!

I kept waiting for Chris to say something

About his missing brush.  Maybe the later parts he will notice it's absence.

 

Enjoyable, looking for the rest of the series.
