All complete and utter shit. Have been for ages.

What the fuck happened ?!

Is there any decent ones left i don't know about that actually show something interesting, or is everything gone to shit now ?

PR_Glen · 07-17-2014, 11:30 AM

are you trying to say pawn stars being shown 20 times a day isn't history??

edit:

ancient aliens!

Tom_PM · 07-17-2014, 11:32 AM

When Cupcake Wars airs on the Military History channel, I say we all drink the kool aid.

Roald · 07-17-2014, 11:45 AM

PR_Glen · 07-17-2014, 12:06 PM

even the food network is ruined these days with stupid game/reality shows and non stop 'how much bacon can i shove in my face' diner shows.

used to have more cooking shows where someone could actually learn something, but no nobody wants to do that..

I don't want to do that either. I'm just waiting for Giada.

2MuchMark · 07-17-2014, 12:34 PM

Discovery Channel shows some of the most stupid stuff, but at least they seem to be showing more and more science shows again. I was getting worried for a while.

Manfap · 07-17-2014, 12:47 PM

yep, 5 years ago, you could always turn on any of them and learn something 24 hours a day.. now just shite!

I've had to start watching Bargain Hunt on BBC.
Spanish telly is so bad.

I am on diet, so I've stopped watching Food Network at least month ago.

Imortyl Pussycat · 07-17-2014, 03:56 PM

are you saying you don't like the series "Vikings" on History channel? omg, i love that show. then again, you don't like planet of the apes so.....

Imortyl Pussycat · 07-17-2014, 04:05 PM

i'm going to have Lord Ragnar's baby (Travis Fimmel of Vikings) Kira needs another sibling

SilentKnight · 07-17-2014, 04:13 PM

Haven't watched History or Discovery channels in years.

I miss the days when they had series like 'Great Castles of Europe'. Now that was stuff worth watchin'.

the network produced a couple hits like American Chopper, dirty jobs & became hopelessly addicted to reality TV profits. Now they just spam the public with work like toddlers & tiaras, which itself spawns more junk like honey boo boo. But it works. they paid honey boo boo like 2K per week & it brought in millions of viewers/dollars.

the public gets what it wants...

Amputate Your Head · 07-17-2014, 05:24 PM

You still watch television?

Broadcasters make billions in profits while using the public airwaves for free. In return, they are supposed to provide programming that fulfills community needs. Instead, lobbyists have successfully fought to make it easier for broadcast companies to gobble up even more free airspace while doing less to serve the public.

Massive corporations dominate the U.S. media landscape. Through a history of mergers and acquisitions, these companies have concentrated their control over what we see, hear and read. In many cases, these companies control everything from initial production to final distribution.

Amputate Your Head · 07-17-2014, 05:34 PM

The news is fake.

Relentless · 07-17-2014, 06:12 PM

Now you can what happens when people think they can save money by not paying good writers. Everyone knows reality television is crap... But it costs nothing to produce because you don't need good writers. I really do think reality television may be the canary in the coal mine. As content quality degrades, people start to see that free isn't always better.

The Porn Nerd · 07-17-2014, 06:45 PM

Ancient Aliens ROCKS - I wish there was an entire channel devoted to it.

carpocratian · 07-17-2014, 08:14 PM

Even when the "science" channels features shows purporting to be actual "science," they tend to get things wrong. Similarly, most shows about archaeology and anthropology are way off base (I spent years in graduate school for anthropology and roomed with archaeologists).

PR_Glen · 07-18-2014, 09:04 AM

aww isn't that cute? amp just figured out that tv commercials and tv programming is used to help sell products.. bravo

As bad as that is on its own, it's not just unnecessary consumer junk you are being conditioned to buy. You are also being sold ideology and a world view. It's called societal shaping, and it's very effective.

So I have to ask, why on Earth would you pay (and pay greatly, tv subscriptions are not exactly cheap now days), to have a signal piped into your home that feeds you with lies, propaganda, and a false view of the world 24/7?

You think it's "cute"? I think it's evil.

Tom_PM · 07-18-2014, 10:18 AM

Who to believe, those who claim it's news or those who claim all news is a conspiracy. It's either one crazy sect or the other, haha.

Dead · 07-18-2014, 03:53 PM

Netflix, problem solved! I have not watched broadcast tv in a long long time, and do not plan too.
All the information I need is at my fingertips, and I get to base my own opinion from every angle I choose to search, not what is being displayed.
Why would anyone even need cable tv? I am still searching for the end of the internet and it keeps getting deeper and deeper.........lots of information and all the history one could want.

MK Ultra · 07-18-2014, 04:46 PM

I miss Wings

(narrated by Peter Ustinov!)

now I only tune in when I want to see the latest episode of Most Deadliest Ice Road Naked Outlaw Alien Pawn Stars.
