The reason these remain popular is because the rest of the TV offerings are so bad.

Posted - Mar 18 2012 : 12:55:17 I was a fan. Heck, I read "North by Northwestern" and like I say I really liked the show, but now it is trying to compete with the others rather than being itself and what it was, which IMHO ran its course about 2 seasons ago. If they want to do more, they should re-enact some these guys father's lives. The Hansen brothers and Phil's dad were both bigger than life.
Everyone is "juicing"it. You remember Fluterby how I caught them "juicing" an episode of the show your son is on, and you admitted they wanted him to do more, but he had the integrity to call a stop to it. Thank him for that by the way.
Without gettin into culture commentary which belongs in NBR, the other day, Jon Hamm had some words about reality TV which I think was spot on and apparently so did the rest of the public because an informal Yahoo poll about 78% of Americans agreed with him. It is time for programmers to stop doing things on the cheap.

I'm getting a little tired of these shows now. They were cool to start, but they each try to beat each other and now they are "amping" it so bad I cannot stand it anymore. They got these guys actually trying to act contrived scenes and it just does not work. I'm not talking about the Kardashians, I'm talking about shows like Bering Sea Gold, Ice Pilots etc. Even Deadliest Catch has been "juicing it" just a little too hard and it is ruining the my enjoyment.

Only a matter of time before Shelby makes the headlines. I remember watching him run the metal jet boat under a tree, nearly destroying his "friends" arm. |
