What the fuck is this shit? "Your body on drugs", well, maybe don't take retarded test subjects next time and actually have some science instead of sensationalist bullshit. So glad I don't own a TV

i stopped watching discovery when Cash Cab became their most often aired show
i still scroll through the channels when when i see disc it looks like reality TV shows that only have the slightest connection to education or science
actually, todays Discovery scedule, and it appears to be almost nothing except reality TV:
2PM:Street Outlaws 3PM:Street Outlaws 4PM:Race to Escape 5PM:Treasure Quest 6PM:Treasure Quest 7PM:Airplane Repo 8PM:Airplane Repo 9PM:Airplane Repo 10PM:Land Rush 11PM:Alaskan Bush People 12AM:Alaskan Bush People
tomorrow: 1AM:Airplane Repo 2AM:Airplane Repo 9AM to 8PM: Naked and Afraid 8PM to 11PM: Naked and afraid XL 11PM:Treasure quest
nothing but reality shows over the next 24 hours on disc

I know for a fact that the pawn shop one is made with actors and has no reality component whatsoever. My friend met the camera crew.
I think this one has actors instead of real life drug users too. The supposed cocaine addict throwing together the bookshelf has to be acted. It's too ridiculous to be true.
Probably none of them are actual reality shows. Too inefficient, too many hours of camera crew wages.

The learning channel is about midgets, fat people and how many babies can Christians make before someone has sex with them.

Hey, these people started with a sub prime mortgage and somehow got an airplane. Sooner or later it had to be repo'ed.

i like deadliest catch. and naked and afraid. for the most part i don't like the reality show crap.
i remember when they had wild discovery... those old nature docs back in like the late 90's those were the good days.
even animal planet is not about animals as much these days, so retarded. and i can't really remember the time i actualy learned something from The Learning Channel (tlc)
i should just switch to netflix.
