It is Christmas Eve and what is being featured on the History Channel? A series of documentaries about the pending end of the world. Merry Christmas everyone! Enjoy it, as it will be your last Christmas before the end of the Mayan calendar. Oh well, it is a step up from having "ancient astronaut theorists" describing to me how the virgin Mary was impregnated by E.T and that the last supper was one last attempt by alien Jesus to phone home. You really have to wonder about some of the crap that passes for programming on the History Channel these days. Surely it caters to a certain audience and it gets ratings, otherwise they wouldn't be showing it.
Everyone have a Merry Christmas!
PS: I was watching ET before channel surfing, and let me say hindsight being 20-20, that movie is way overrated. The best Christmas movie of all-time is still a toss up between Rocky 4, Die Hard, and Gremlins.

ReplyDeleteI wouldn't bet on that, the HC may be just another of those taxpayer-funded sinkholes we're forced to pay for to keep a few people in the TV business happy.
I'd like to see their ratings,but finding out the ratings for a particular TV channel or show seems like searching for the Holy Grail, interesting and challenging, but never any results.
btw, I urge anyone who believes the world will end with the Mayan Calendar next year,to sign over all their worldly good to ME,for safekeeping. I'll take good care of your homes,cars,cash,bonds,land,boats,cottages,etc.
