I don't watch a lot of TV anyway, but have seen a few of the so called 'reality shows' (no, not the 'Keeping up with the
)
and most are anything but reality.
Some are pretty good. American Pickers I enjoy, Forged in Fire is not terrible, Pawn Stars still has some good ones, Storage Wars is interesting most of the time, and some of the cooking 'contests' are interesting. I like Beat Bobby Flay, because he actually loses sometimes. Deadly Catch and Wicked Tuna Outer Banks are fairly good.
The history recreation shows are simply boring and too often, too far fetched if anyone has even read 5th grade history..
Life Below Zero is not terrible, and with maybe the exception of The Last Alaskans, the survivor shows are junk, which brings me to one of the dumbest shows (and families) on television...the Browns. Alaskan (millionaire) Bush People. The should have called it the Alaskan Bull&$#!*& People. Second only (but barely) to some nut called Joe Ray from a show called The Boonies. Lives in a cave somewhere near a place called Calico Rock Arkansas. He should move to Alaska (or Colorado or Washington) wherever that dysfunctional group called the Browns now live. And what kind of accent is that the Brown kids are all supposed to have?
I've seen several of those Alaskan shows and one thing stands out in my mind. I know some people that have lived in Alaska. Seen pictures and videos of their homes. Look like regular homes and yards to me, but is there some law that says to be on TV from Alaska, that your yard has to be overgrown with chest high weeds all over the place and everything made from junk (and looks like it) ?
Even on Alaskan State Troopers, the homes they go to look like Joe Poop the Ragman lived there.
Is it against the law in Alaska to own a machete or (Gawd forbid) a weedeater?
