It really is amazing how low the programming quality on Discovery, TLC, History, etc. has gotten to these days.

You have to go to CNN to find Mike Rowe. CNN! If that's not a sign of how screwed up things are, I don't know what is.

Yes she was.

As for mamma booboo, I'd go gayer than a day in May before tapping that.

This, in spades. Although honestly I thought that show was on E. It has freakin' subtitles*. Wonder how "bad touch!" translates . . .

So much for the next season's line-up, with the much anticipated replacement of Papa Bear with ah heck Bear.

* Unless The Soup pulled a fast one and added those.
 
This woman is way less offensive than those incessantly sucking at the tit of popular culture. I wouldn't even know she (and her child) existed, if it weren't for those people. 🙂

Agreed. I do not find her in the least offensive, although admittedly unattractive. I find the fact that she had a show to be highly offensive.

Oh its all good when the white trash acts funny, but when they actually start acting like white trash its time to pack it up. This is white trash you voyeurs, watch it!, all of it! 🙂

I would have canceled the show after seeing the first episode... nothing about her dating a child molester. The show is targeted toward the same people who watch Jerry Springer or Maury Povich Show.. All should be canceled.

Meh, at least you could argue that Jerry Springer and Maury serve some sort of function (albeit a highly exploited function) and at least take it out of the "reality" arena and give it the mild dignity of a talk show studio. Honey boo-boo is what it looks like when the guests on those shows go home.
 
You fellows would be singing a whole different tune if the mom was hot.

I wonder if she managed to save any of the money from the show?

No we wouldn't. We'd just be making more jokes.

I'm wondering if she managed to save any of the money for liposuction.

If she were hot she probably wouldn't need to date a child molester. When you look like she does, that's about all you can get.
 
Good. Even before the revelation of the mother's supposed relationship with a child molester, that show was nothing but voyeuristic exploitation porn.

I think NPR summed it up best in their article:
http://www.npr.org/2014/10/24/35856...cancellation-shows-dangers-of-exploitative-tv

Too often, it seems reality TV producers have been in the business of handing worldwide platforms to dubious people in questionable circumstances. They shrug off criticisms of their high-wire TV acts and cross their fingers, hopeful that their "stars" won't implode until — like the bitter divorce between Jon and Kate Plus 8 stars Jon and Kate Gosselin — their shows are already in decline.

Thats the thing though, the pool of men willing to put their dick into her has got to be EXTREMELY limited (BoberFett, TexasHiker and Spidey come to mind). I have heard of women like her using their children as bait so they could get some sex for themselves. Pedophiles may be willing to fuck her if it means they get a shot at her children. That is probably what is going on here. I am shocked that TLC would pull the plug just when this train wreck really got interesting.

Coming from a guy that thinks giving young children orgasms is a good thing.
 
So, the "niece" that the guy molested was apparently the daughter with the teenage pregnancy.
