TLC, Probably the most inappropriate name for a TV channel since MTV. I remember when TLC used to have shows that actually did teach things. They had doctor shows and really I’m not sure what else because who really watches the freaking learning channel. You took a channel that could actually educate some people and turned it into VH1-Light. I recently started looking at the shows on TLC and began to be very annoyed. Let’s take a look at some of their shows….
John & Kate + 8
Let’s start with the show that pisses me off more than any other one. Why do I care if some stupid stuck up bitch and some Asian looking dude get divorced? Yea, I get they have 8 kids and they have their own show. But who cares? Are people’s lives that pathetic that they gotta stay home on a Monday night and watch some other people’s marriage falling apart? Where’s the entertainment in that? Hey TLC, you’re the learning channel, how many people are learning from a family with eight kids. The only people that have 8 kids are probably on welfare and live in some mid-west hick town with nothing else to do with their time. And let’s be honest, do you really think they have cable?
American Chopper
TLC, what the fuck did you do to American Chopper? Remember when it was a show about motorcycles, and you occasionally got the father and son arguing and yelling at each other. I put it on the other day and they got some random people building bikes, Paul Sr. is writing books, and Paul Jr. is opening a boutique. Geez you took a show made for guys and turned it into a show that that a 12 year old girl invites her friends over to watch after they read the latest twilight book.
Well here’s a great idea for a show. Let’s get some tattoo artists and follow their customers. I bet the people that came up with this one are the same geniuses that came up with the McRib. Look i'm sure there are some interesting stories of how or why people get their tats, but really do we need to learn about it on the Learning Channel. Hey Miami Ink, take your show to Bravo where the housewives of where ever they’re from can watch you paint a Woody Woodpecker tattoo on some drunk idiot from Indiana.

……last but not least,
Little People, Big World
Holy Shit! Is there a creepier show on TV today? I got nothing against the midgets, or dwarfs, or little people or whatever they wanna be called. But to have a half hour show following them around is kind of scary to me. I saw ten minutes of the show once and had nightmares for a month. I didn’t even know what the people on the show did until I started writing this. Apparently they run a farm. Really? A farm? What is it, an ant farm? I hope at least when I go there to get greeted by the lollipop guild.
But I will give you this TLC, you’ve educated me on how with hard work, perseverance, and a butt load of money from the Discovery Channel networks, anyone can be successful as long as you follow them around with a TV camera.
