Channel: ? Show That Ruined It: ?

[stroh]

I have several channels that I like, or at least used to like to watch.  However it seems inevitable that some jerk wad ass clown program director has to jam it's airwaves with some new shtick show and run it incessantly.  Hate!   

Every time I just want to watch something this garbage is all that's on.

History:  Ice Road Truckers.  Enough!  I get it it's cold.  It's *goshdarn* cold driving to work here too, but I seem to make it most days.

A & E  :  Deadliest Catch.  You're *goshdarn* Morons.  (Although I like imitation crab)

Discovery:  Dirtiest Jobs.  Quit *goshdarn* whining.

Golf Channel:  Big Break.  Die.  Die.  Die.


The latest is:

Food Network:  Some dumbass cake show.  Seriously, it's the Miami Ink of The Food Network.  I don't care!  I want Alton Brown all the time.

Yes, I watch a lot of Food Network.  I still haven't gotten over the release of Emeril.

Food channel?

And you called me a *humid grotto*?

[stroh]

   Karen's fault.  But I'm hooked.

Alton Brown's show was the shiite, and they could just play that and Iron Chef (original recipe) and it would be good.

I stopped paying attention to TGC when Pelz started doing not even vaguely disguised infomercials for wedges, putters and (the final insult) the club that his sorry ass  'school' was at.

SpeedTV used to have ACTUAL car racing, instead of 150 hours of NASCAR coverage, followed by 'Pinks' and a 'Pimp My Ride' clone.

What I really don't get is the fact that we've become a nation that actually watches OTHER PEOPLE WORK on television for entertainment!

WTF IS THAT!

Back in VA, the public access channel once ran a guy's show where he filmed his cat sleeping in an overstuffed armchair.  Thirty minutes of this fat grey-n-black cat, sleeping in a chair.  It'd reposition maybe once or twice, not that we had a poll going or anything.  Yeah, I'll watch anything late at night.

Anyway, that was a good channel.  Can't remember what ruined it.
