AXE man Drama?

[chopped]

I just watched the second of the season .Im really stumped at this point. Are they deliberatly doing things to make the show???
They chopped a tree down and it fell right on the guys truck:thumbsup::thumbsup:.Now any idiot would know to move the thing..LOL
Just so many things now on these shows that they do that are so unprofessional.I do think there is some sort of fund money for them.I dont see how any of these guys(the way they act now) could live to be over 30..
I guess there is only so much you can do with a show to keep it 'exciting''

How about Shelby driving that jet boat so wildly he was trying hard to hit stuff low branches,ect.I would have Laughed my ***** off if he run 10 foot hardwood stub through his head.
Gold rush the same thing ,had to drive a 4-wheeler 40 miles to the town post office cause they could'nt get the generator started to charge the truck battery? How about you drive the loader over and boost the truck? I have heard the same old song for 2 years " boy if we dont find some gold I'm gonna loose my house" Pretty patient bank anit it? been working 2 years made 20,000 or so divided between 5 men and food and fuel brake downs ect. Discovery chanel is backing them all it's just tv.

Yeah, if they showed you what it was really like it would probably make some boring tv for the most part. They each have producers, and the producers have a tendency to make up things to make their show more exciting or intense, all to grab more viewers. I believe they actually tell the guys to get in verbal altercations and then start throwing stuff, or get into a wrassling match lol.

I dont watch any of these stupid reality shows except for the original COPS.

All the others are so staged their sickening. I mean really, take Survivor...like their really in fear of dying or starving...with a 12 man camera crew 10 feet in front of them.

And why do they keep parading Kim Kardasian (sp?) on the tv and internet. she makes me sick. How can so many people get so wrapped up in someone elses life that they need to know all the details about them. Its really pathetic.

I thought the one about gold prospectors in Alaska might have held some promise..and i actually watched 2 episodes... but nope. all staged. They always just happened to have 3 cameras on 3 different angles looking at something that was an accident, wasnt expected, and cold have killed someone....yada yada yada.

 

[Jeff Lary]

exactly. yada yada yada

Most of these shows are working diligently to appeal to the lowest common denominator, idiots. Unfortunate, as several of these programs could stand on the challenges and risks of the work they are doing. My vote is to boycott the Drama Queens!

And what about the real houseslu^s of __________(fill in the blanks). How can somebody really sit and watch that crap. It was shows like this that made me cancel my satellite service 6 months ago.

And ive never had more time on my hands to do things that matter. no more vegging out watching crap onthe TV .

I am forever pointing stupit stuff out to my wife till she says " if you dont like it read while I watch it ,it's just a show"
I guess shes right last year i distinctly heard them say the old man on the gold rush show was producing $44,000.00 per day.This year he is in such dier straights that in order to "save" the mine he put his 16 year old grandson in charge.Makes sence to me

Well I watched the rest of it, and one point the boss guy said he ddint know where they had parked the car, But from the camera view you could se the red shinning right throught he woods. and what if it wasnt staged???? Int he end it landed on the highway, could have killed someone dribving by..
Thanks god they dont have one with guys on tractors.. (yet).
I still think after these show start off, they have money to throw in and make the drama..But goldrush I really am inpressd with the 17 year old.
hard worker and seems to be quite charm at it all.
Also diapointed in swamp loggers. several times I know ti was staged as they reached for the phone before it rang...lol and listen to the numbers ,they will say this problem has cost them 1500 dollarsm and a few minutes later they will say after this 2500 dollar mistake..........
expecially the weights on the trees.At those weights only 8 or nice would be on a trailer..lol

Pawn stars I got a gadget apraised at 150.000.00 so naturally i sell it for 300.00 what a crock of well ya know all that crap just burns my ***** it is so fake.You go to a yard sale if a guy wants 50.00 for a broke down chainsaw you have all you can to buy it for 40.00. but in that show he would give it to them and thank em for taking it off his hands.
