This is making me miss when History Channel and Discovery Channel didn’t give me cancer with their current formulaic reality garbage

I used to watch History channel about 2-3 hours a day, because I “home schooled” for 6th grade, and my Mom was lazy. As a result I was way ahead of my classmates in Social Studies from 7 th grade on.

If you let a kid do that now, he’d just end up stupider.

I really wonder - what happened to them? Advertising dollars dry up, so they had to switch it up - and produce crap that the unwashed masses watch, as opposed to things that are actually educational?

No idea. I never had cable TV growing up, so in some respects, I’m slowly catching up on my alternate childhood by watching all these documentaries.

At least that’s what I keep telling myself. :P

I imagine that’s what happened, but I don’t really know. I didn’t think they were doing badly before, but maybe they were. Now with the state of cable TV they’re just doing whatever gets the most viewership - lowest common denominator.
