More snark!

[edit] Delete or not

I'd say don't delete. It's actually a worthwhile page, if anyone can give a REVIEW of the quality of science on the science tv, who funds it, etc. I know Discovery Channel Science, SUCKS in its science. Unless you really think there were aliens in Egypt. Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 14:50, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Currently it needs a lot of work. Redchuck.gif ГенгисYou have the right to be offended; and I have the right to offend you.Moderator 14:51, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Oh my god, this *is* the discovery one. well, *some* work is comming, as i HATE this channel. heh.  :-) Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 14:52, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, I thought it might be referring to that one, which is part of the reason as to why I felt it should be deleted. Fuckertalk to me :D|see my shit 14:56, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Cable TV + science = woo up the wazoo, right? Nebuchadnezzar (talk) 15:14, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
It's not really "wooie" - it's just CRAPPY. UK get's Horizion, we get "Monster bug wars" "Jaws week" and "Anvil Toss". Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 15:18, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Ah, I see, it's more in the "Blow Shit Up" genre of pop science. Nebuchadnezzar (talk) 15:22, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Yep. -- Oh, no. i have to take back one of my snarkies. They actually did air "wonders of the solar system". pouts. Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 15:24, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
(EC) I'm pretty show that MythBusters is the only good show in that genre. Fuckertalk to me :D|see my shit 15:25, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
I was actually pleasantly surprised with this blog piece that appeared on the Discovery Science homepage that says we shouldn't teach creationism Intelligent Design alongside evolution. Fidgetertalk to me :D|see my shit 15:28, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Added that, though i think the wording i used is clumsy. Ok, time to work. I'll add some more shows later, if no one else does.

[edit] An anecdote for you all

So I tuned in and noticed they changed their motto to "question everything." While a commendable idea, I also noticed during every commercial break they air commercials for those types of big businesses that no everyday person would do business with, like Boeing or DOW Chemical. I know that those companies advertising is a sort of bribe to stations not to air anything negative about them. So now I am questioning them. --Alakazam (talk) 21:58, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
