TV hits new low!!

Did anyone see the Glutten Bowl on Friday. Guys seeing how much and how fast they can eat. Whats next? 300 channels on the Dish and nothing appealing. Where's Green Acres when you need it.

The glutton bowl stands right up there with laying down in a bathtub full of worms/snakes/maggots/rats/and whatever other stuff they can find. Newest one I heard of on the radio today is on MTV I can't remember the name of it, but it is being billed as a "reality sitcom". It is supposedly the family life of Ozzie Ozborn, you get to watch him raise his 2 kids. (Bet THEY watched the glutton bowl.)

I'm waiting for a lot of the old TV series to come out on DVD. MASH, complete 1st Season, is now out with another season due in May. If they do well, maybe some of the others will test the waters. As far as broadcast TV, they haven't even begun to plumb the depths.

Don't forget PBS! Our satellite provider broadcasts Detroit PBS. We get all the Michigan outdoor shows, and of course This Old House and the New Yankee Workshop.
I also like Food Network Canada - cooking is one of my hobbies.

It's not unusual for networks to burn up their worst stuff by running it against the Olympics. Fox already had this in the can, (for reasons unknown to me!) and obviously decided to burn it up while everyone was watching a very eventful night of ice skating!
Just a guess.

Paul,
If you get the Michigan PBS shows, You must get "The Boat Shop" Our PBS chanel used to have it, but no more. I used to love that show.
