I/O I'm addicted to the Discovery Channel

[randhail]

I'm not afraid to admit that I just can't get enough of Discovery. Almost any show they put in front of me I just eat right up. Man vs. Wild, Deadliest Catch, Dirty Jobs, Myth Busters, Future Weapons, etc. I can't say enough good things about the shows. They could air a special on the mating habits of rats and I'd probably watch it. Bear Grylls is THE MAN. He has more knowledge about everything in the outdoor world than everyone else on this planet combined. I love Mike Rowe's dry sense of humor. Growing up, I didn't want to admit my love for the channel for fear of being labeled as a dork, but I openly embrace and am proud of my dorkiness.

I don't have cable.

Now our bent rabbit ear broke, and our reception is even worse.

For crying out loud, I'm not rich, but I'm certainly not that poor.

I need to get cable.

Then again...I already watch too much TV anyway.

Yay!

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you are angry about not having cable

Just a little bit.

The other night, Ernie was walking up the stairs, and he suddenly stopped to talk to me...but him standing in the middle of the stairs was ruining the reception.

Then a train went by...and it was a loooooooooong train...and THAT ruined the reception.

I yell at the trains.

I realize it doesn't fix anything, but I feel better.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I yell at the trains.

So do I!!!

 

[Bonochick]

I actually like living by the tracks, but I hate it when trains screw up the reception when I'm watching a show.

Me: "#@!*#( TRAIN!!!!!!!! HURRY UP!!!!!!!! GO!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I just like to yell at trains...

 

[Bonochick]

Sunday night:

Me: "TRAIN!!!!!! HURRY!!!!!! GO!!!!!!!!! WHEN WILL YOU END???"

Ernie: "Looks like 150 cars!"

Me:

I dont have cable either. Can't even get the local channels.

When I lived in my dorm room, we were right on the Canadian border, and I used to get this Canadian station in French that came in really well, so I watched that a lot.

How much did you understand?

 

[Bonochick]

Pretty much none of it.

I me some Mike Rowe! His sense of humor & sarcasm are just supreme. If I didn't already have the perfect husband, I think I'd do some serious research on how one could get to know Mr. Rowe.

MythBusters is also a fave of mine - just being able to witness the glee expressed when those guys blow something up makes my day.

Started watching Planet Earth episodes Sunday night - those look like they'll be interesting, too. Yeah, 'addiction' might be too strong a word for me, but I'm definately enthusiastic about alot of the DCs programming.

^ The 11 part Planet Earth series on Discovery High Def. theater has incredible images. It took 5 years to film it. Looking forward to watching all of them.
