arghhh why does the Travel Channel keep on showing STUPID ghost shows?

[LS20]

5 straight hours of "americas most haunted hotel" and "most haunted houses" and "most haunted cities" ....

who watches this crap? and what does it have to do with travel??? show me some exotic countries!

Unfortunately for the same reason The History Channels and Discovery Channels keep showing Ghost and UFO shows. Apparently there is a huge audience of fscking idiots that eat this BS up.

 

[FoBoT]

they have no content

not enough material for 200 channels

 

[chrisms]

I'd rather they just show Anthony Bourdain reruns

The same reason Home & Garden is 99% Home and 1% Garden!
Why don't they just name it the HOME CHANNEL?
1--- Here's how "not" to drive a nail and hit your thumb with a hammer while having a flimsy guy that wears pink talk about this for 5min.
2--- Hmmm, should we paint the baby's room black or brown? Satin or Eggshell?
3--- Do you think my black walls go with my black leather furniture?......... Oooh!

LMAO............. What happened to the garden part? My wife hates this channel now! It used to be halfway decent.


Same thing with Discovery Health! 90% of the time all they show is delivering babies!

umm...usually haunted places are tourist attractions. so yeah, it would have to do with travel a little bit anyway.

My wife likes to watch the ghost shows on occasion. She will be glad to know she is thought so highly of.

It's that or poker. It sucks.

Anthony Bourdain rocks.

It doesn't make any sense. You'd think that making a travel show would be fairly cheap to produce compared to a regluar program. Pick a spot, call ahead, get free rooms in exchange for favorable reviews or lots of product placement... Pay a camera crew and sound guy to follow a hot blonde hostess around...

HDNET has the two best travel shows on earth. Art Mann Presents and Get Out! are great!

Lets all light candles and pour olive oil on the porch to chase away the evil spirits.

That's OK, Santa and the Tooth Fairy will make up for it with many comforting gifts.

How dare you forget the Easter Bunny.

 

[DrPizza]

Let's not forget "Pet Psychic" on Animal Planet.

In fact, all those channels have gone to hell the last few years... Or rather, they're making Americans stupider by lending some credibility to these idiotic things. Make me supreme ruler of Earth and these things would stop. Except, my first action would be to remove pure fiction from newspapers. Good-bye horoscopes.

The Easter Bunny is real. Why would I include him in a short list of imaginary things?

I for one, welcome our new former pizza delivery guy overlords!
You have my vote for king of earth.

 

[Heisenberg]

All those channels have been going downhill ever since they turn TLC into a channel for bored housewives.

 

[LS20]

does TLC still STAND for the Learning channel?

i used to like all the surgery shows on them

 

[purbeast0]

Yah I'd rather watch the WPT shows they have on there

 

[sandorski]

You keep watching them, they keep showing them! E-mail them a complaint, as far as they're concerned you are totally cool with those shows. :shrug;
