  • The Real Reason The New Yankee Workshop Ended
    For 21 seasons, The New Yankee Workshop captivated viewers with Norm Abram’s calm, expert craftsmanship and passion for woodworking. Week after week, he guided us through building everything from elegant furniture to outdoor gazebos, always making complex projects feel approachable. But in 2009, despite its immense popularity and full funding, the show abruptly ended. Norm had built over 235 projects, yet he decided to walk away at the peak of his career.

    Sadly the background music that plays along with the audio portion of this show is just way too loud and irritating

    When you see a title like that usually people take a strike at the person. As one who grew up watching Norm on new yankee workshop or this old house I thank you for the respect that you have given to such a wonderful craftsman.

    never had a shop class in my life, but I DID watch every episode of New Yankee Workshop, and by learning what Norm taught, I'm passable good, AND never had a shop accident.. Always wear those safety glasses. Thanks Norm.

    He is one of the few people that nothing negative can be said of him.

    Just a guess but I think the reason for the obnoxious background "music" is to prevent copyright strikes by adding to the original content. Yeah, it is annoying. I muted the audio and used the closed captions. I watched the New Yankee Workshop when it was originally broadcast. A great show!

    The creator got one thing backwards. Was this a music video or a video about a classic woodworker. The non-essential music over powered the commentary. It was totally distracting. It would be good for the creator to edit this otherwise good video and lower the music volume to nearly audible.

    The incessant and wholly unnecessary background noise is far too loud and makes what is being said virtually unintelligible. Both This Old House and The New Yankie Workshop managed perfectly well without any such distractions. Stop it. 🙄😖🤬

    It would be a good idea to re-edit this video and remove the distracting and annoying music. It doesn't help at all.
