My wife watches Jon & Kate + 8 with zeal that borders on the religious.  She's got their book, too. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I watch that occasionally, it's so entertaining mostly because that Kate is a hardcore ball busting nag!!  lol  Sheesh :)  If they weren't on tv that guy wouldn't put up with her crap that's for sure!  ;)

I must admit, I'm pretty disappointed with cable TV nowadays. The Discovery Channel, The History Channel, Sci-fi channel and ALL the stupid wrestling that's on several channels just makes me want to drop cable TV completely. TLC went overboard long ago, having shows on retarded people, genetically defective people and other freaks of nature. Discovery is barely appealing to me any more. Sci-Fi, which has the most appeal to me is starting lose me as a viewer. They keep putting on shows/ movies that are more fiction that science fiction, not to mention ECW wrestling. (WTF does THAT have to do with Sci-Fi?????) Don't even get me started on the music video channels!!! MTV, VH1 & CMT.


I can't afford the extended package, so I don't get some of the better channels.

I haven't watched TLC in a long time because it became all that reality stuff.  I think they used to have Connections 2 which was a great show and one time they had this great show on famous books and their authors.

Ice Road Fishing and those kinds of shows just don't appeal to me that much, the only intervention show I like is Dog Whisperer and I don't even watch that.  So what are they doing on TLC these days that has the DUmmies so upset and why not just watch History or Science or some other channels that still has some good stuff from time to time?

Occasionally I'll watch American Chopper if they have an expecially nice bike they're fixing up.

The history channel is nothing but leftist propaganda.  It is the NYT/History channel and is full of aliens amongs us and if only stalin had beat the allies crap.

You are SO right! Today they had a show where they were speculating whether or not Lincoln had a homo relationship with a soldier because he stayed at his house often when the pressure got to much for him. Give me a frikkin break!!!!

I have a best friend, my BIL, that is my outlet when shit gets to the point I'm ready to beat the hell out of somebody. Without his friendship, I'd probly have spent more time in the county lock-up than I already have.

Because a man has a close friend, he must be suckin somethin' besides doorknobs, right?

What a bunch of stinkin' perverts! They always think men cannot be close unless it is a sexual nature. Nothing quite like taking one of the greatest men who ever shaped this country and making him GAY!

Anti-semitic as well I would argue.

Nevermind the fact that they play every documentary with some half-assed theory about why the Bible can't possibly be what conventional wisdom says it is even if those theories contradict each other but you never see is the same treatment given to the texts of the the other religions of the world. I dare their brave, bold producers to try that crap with the Koran.

The breaking point to me was when I was watching a show on the conquest of Canaan. The narrator points out how brutal ancient warfare was because it required hacking each other to bloody bits at close quarters and because of the psychological stresses the entirety of the Hebrew male nation must have been psychotic basketcases; at which point the image on the screen is of filthy, bedraggled wild-eyed men whose features are deepened by the orange glow of a raoring fire.

Has any other ancient society ever been so painted? The Romans? The Macedonians? Anyone? Even the Moloch worshippers of Carthage are treated with admiration.

I guess only jews are the psychopathic killers with their bogus religious texts.
You know, I am remembering that and I thought that was one of the stupidest comment I had heard yet.  Was that the one with the Naked Archeologist about what natural disaster may have corresponded with the exodus out of Egypt?  The really stupid thing about that, other than it was directed at the Hebrews while such things are never said of any other group, not even the Spartans in that 300 thing I liked, but it is projecting modern values onto an ancient civilization.

We are so self-absorbed these days, I think most of our psychological diseases come from that whereas I don't think think the ancients had the leisure time to sit around feeling sorry for themselves all day.  They also had different ideas about death, we are so deathophobic as a culture we think nobody should ever die even though everybody does.  There was a much greater acceptance of death as just a natural part of the whole cycle of life.  In fact, the whole concept of time was seen more as a ring instead of the linear, non-repeating progression we have been conditioned to see it as today.

But I still think they have a lot of good shows.  I liked that one about locating the Garden of Eden by satellite imagry and I even like watching the Nostradamus shows because they are so  funny in their inaccuracies.

There isn't a DAMN thing wrong with the Duggar Family. They provide for their kids WITHOUT the government's help, ...and that's all that's necessary. I do wonder, if it were some crack whore, would they be saying the same thing? Something tells me no. Hell, something tells me those moonbats would be saying it's America's fault that the woman HAD 10+ kids. Isn't that what they tell us now when it's 6? Yes, I know the Duggars have about 18, but they provide for them all. I'm all for having as many kids as you can afford. It's TIME to start sustaining the population with AMERICANS.

American Chopper drove me away from whatever channel it was on.

Dirty Jobs is ok, but........ they do get a little disgusting. 

The bigger problem is that there is no longer anything to "Discover" or "learn" from those channels. It's all about ratings any more. A LOT of these cable channels have forgotten their roots. I used to LOVE TLC, Discovery, & the History Channel (The Drug Channel). There are few shows on them any more that are worth watching.

Ohh, and Kevin?? I agree whole-heartedly. Have as many children as you can afford. The Duggers appear to be a  model, albeit large, family.

Oh, Discovery Health had a documentary on tonight about the top transgender physician in the country. I can't imagine that show would even have viewers. It takes all kinds to make a world but I guess if God gets it wrong there's a doctor who can cut off your tits and make them into a dick. Sheesh!

That encapsulates two "Must-miss" topics in one show for me.  Medical crap just doesn't interest me at all and doubly so for people with gender identity issues.
