The Bible miniseries on the History Channel

History channel has jumped the shark, along with TLC (WHICH USED TO ROCK) Now it has honey boo boo, instead of shows showing operations, or even remotely teaching you something. no more learning on the learning channel, just dumbing.

Now the History channel shows crap like Pawn stars and American pickers, which showcase American greed. Mind you, owned by the same company that ruined Discovery, and TLC.


Yeah sure (sarcastic) I am expecting "sooooo" much from this.

Interesting isn't it. We now have 200 channels to select from where 100 of them are useless, and 50 of them show the same programming. Good thing I don't spend more than two hours a month watching anything outside of a sport broadcast, and even then I can only watch baseball because I can't stand the advertising.

PBS is getting harder to watch as well since they've had to step up the pledging.

LOL. It really does seem sports is the only thing worth watching anymore.

My TV habits are UFC, a show called WW2 in color, on the military channel, and Yankee, Knickerbocker, 49ers, and NJ devil games.

Anything else is background noise while I game.

Not on topic, but as there's discussion of different stuff related to documentaries,
I'll leave you with this channel:

Some nice docs there, really liked the "Failure is not an option" one.

Then the classic hasn't changed, except for the numbers.

That leaves me out in the cold, since I don't like sports at all. My solution? I don't have a television. If there's something that interests me I'll see what others say and then watch it online.
