Members Super_Donut_Man Posted January 7, 2010 Members Share Posted January 7, 2010 Kinda funny that the "history" channel doesn't really have much of anything to do with history. Has anyone learned anything from The Learning Channel (TLC) I don't watch tv much anymore, and, frankly, when I do it scares the shate out of me.

Members Bass8987 Posted January 7, 2010 Members Share Posted January 7, 2010 I can't stand all the Nostradamus/2012/End of the World type of shows on History Channel. I swear it is on every time I turn it to that channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members t3ch Posted January 7, 2010 Members Share Posted January 7, 2010 I know right? History used to be so awesome. I like a lot of their current shows as well, but it's not just pure history footage and documentary, which was what was so cool about it in the past. Then again MTV doesn't show music anymore, so eh.

Really, the last Modern Marvels I saw ( the beginning any way before I changed the channel) was Ice, let me say that again, so it sinks in, {censored}ing Ice!

Members niomosy Posted January 7, 2010 Members Share Posted January 7, 2010 It used to be the WWII channel. I recall seeing bits of a show on Egypt and I thought... hmmm, Egypt on the WWII channel!? Oh! Maybe it's on Egypt's involvement in WWII! But... eh. The wife and I cut out cable t.v. a couple years ago or so. Nothing to worry about. Although I do miss watching Good Eats and maybe a couple other things, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Super_Donut_Man Posted January 7, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 7, 2010 I was watching/had it on in the background for 3 hours last night, I didn't see one damn bit of useful history. Started off with some post apocalyptic survival how-to show, then straight into end of the world crap for 2 hours, interrupted every 15 minutes with a pawn shop show commercial (which why the hell is that on the history channel, there is nothing remotely involved with history, billy-bob hawked his late wifes wedding ring to support his meth habit, but this was predicted by Nostradaumos [sp], so the world is ending in 2060) I love shows like Modern Marvels, How it's Made, and that type that still comes on History, Discover, etc... Yeah same here for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
