TLC, Travel or Discovery Channel

[hammersavage]

Recently, I find myself only flipping between these 3 channels. I don't even bother with CBS, NBC, or ABC anymore.

Now I just watch TLC, the Travel Channel, and the Discovery channel. I know there are other good cable stations, but these are the 3 most watched for me. Of these 3, which is your favorite?

Here's a breakdown of each:

TLC: Miami/LA Ink, Little People/Big World, American Chopper, some decent home improvement shows

Travel Channel: No Reservations w/ Anthony Bourdain, World Poker Tour, 5 Takes, Bizarre Foods, the 'Passport to' series

Discovery Channel: Man vs. Wild w/ Bear Grylls, Deadliest Catch, Dirty Jobs, Cash Cab, Mythbusters, Shark Week in a couple weeks


I love 'em all but I could watch Dirty Jobs, Deadliest Catch, and Man vs. Wild on a loop and never get bored. What about you?

[weekapaugjz]

out of those three, discovery channel. whenever i am at my mom's house, the first channel i turn on is discovery HD to see whats on. i love the discovery channel.

network t.v. sucks. i think the only thing i watch on them anymore is sports.

[J.Clints]

TLC and Discovery.

[JPMNICK]

discovery for me. I am glad they got rid of american choppers. there was no reason for that show to be on the station. much better fit on TLC

[Fallon]

Dirty Jobs is the best show on cable.

I love American Choppers but your right it belongs on TLC

[J.Clints]

Dirty Jobs is the best show on cable.

It is damn good. I am glad its not me doing those jobs.

Dirty Jobs is the best show on cable.

i still haven't seen the noodling episode o&a were talking about with mike rowe when he was on a few months ago. i really need to get a dvr and just start recording everything.

[hammersavage]

Yeah, Dirty Jobs is just incredible. I never knew how much shit there was all over the place. It seems like every job is picking up some form of shit.

My top 3 shows:

1. No Reservations- I'm just a huge Bourdain fan and he's great in that role. Takes you all over the world.

2. Deadliest Catch- I had never seen an episode until a month ago. Now I've seen every episode at least 10 times. Love the Mike Rowe voice over.

3. Cash Cab- I dream of the day I get in a cab in the city and see Ben Bailey. I'll die happy...

Yeah, that's what got me into watching the show. When Mike was on O&A talking about noodling.

[J.Clints]

same here

i think that was one of the best interviews i have heard from o&a. rowe was right in on the flow of the show and i believe was busting on steve, which is always funny.

[JesterOfSadness]

Mike Rowe is Discovery channel.

[JPMNICK]

I like Man vs. Wild more thsan Dirty Jobs, but I love both shows. they both get recorded every week along with Myth Busters.

[badorties]

bourdain all the way ... i have about 6 hours dvr'd to enjoy at my leisure

cash cab a close second

tlc has its moments, although i'll never go outta my way to watch anything

[drusilla]

after tlc i'm a big fan of the discovery health channel. the only thing i watch on regular discovery is dirty jobs.

[DonInNC]

I watch all three, but I probably watch the travel channel more than the others. The History Channel is my "home" channel though.

[cougarjake13]

easily its discovery

mythbusters, deadliest catch, dirty jobs


on the other channels i have only watched miami ink

[Dan G]

I don't get any of those channels, but I do get Discovery HD which I watch a lot. They don't play the sames shows as regular Discovery though.

[hammersavage]

Another underrated aspect of the Discovery Channel I forgot to add is they pretty much only play things in marathon format.

Like today it was mythbusters wall-to-wall. Which is great cuz i don't have to worry about when somethings on, i can watch the new Deadliest Catch during a marathon on Tuesday. It's great for the lazy...

[NortonsHeiny]

I love Discovery. I would prefer an all Mike Rowe channel if possible. I will be needing him to talk just a little slower here and there....
