I love Lock and Load. But as for How the Earth was Made, well I do not know how but I do know who and that is good enough for me.......
I gotta say, I love the history channel. My dish stays @ 101w 90% of the time.
I am getting tired of them playing this doomsday crap almost every week though.

I tend to agree with Dee_Ann. They take some interesting subjects and just massacre the story until it is almost unwatchable by spending all their time trying to change a documentary into a drama show and endless repeating the same point over and over again.
Thankfully not all the shows are like that but enough to keep the remote busy, with all the ads we are paying about what it is worth.

i love the history channel its better then the history channel here in canada some times the cdn channel has some interesting stuff. just hope it dont get axed any time soon.
There you go it's about ratings, probably. That just tells me they give the Nielsen diaries to the wrong people...
Modern Marvels... I love that program.
Saw that Alone in the Wilderness program on Montana PBS. Pretty cool!
Nice pictures, Photto.
That's an Arizona rainstorm allright. Your neighbor gets it and you don't or vice versa. And, it lasts for five minutes. And, you are pleased it DID rain...
I like the channel. I have Directv along with FTA and it is in my top 10 watched channels. It's HD quality is great. I watch Modern Marvels and the Animal House doc last night was cool.
"Alone in the Wilderness" was quite interesting. But I'd rather never be more than 2 hours away from a hospital.
I can see how he could survive without a hospital or a local doctor, or a gas station or a TV or radio station, or a local newspaper, or a FoodMart or a good satellite feed channel or a utility company or snowplows......
But, what the heck did he do about BEER!
That just boggles my mind! Seriously, Mr. Proenneke was really awesome in what he could do. I was just in awe at his carpentry skills. And, I sure wouldn't want to wrestle with him.
RADAR
but nowadays the ability to have radio/tv/newspaper is dramatically different than back then
thats what FTA & sat internet is for

The History used to be the Hitler channel...but I've seen very little WWII programming whenver I've tuned-in the past couple years.
Then you didn't watch last couple of weeks. World War 2 in HD was on for about a week, and on Pearl Harbor Day, some great documentaries about that. I recorded all of it!
Yes, it's the Chicken Little Channel
Satellite AMC 4, 12060Mhz, 26700, SID 001F
The sky is falling around the clock. Every program, all day long.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Two thumbs down..
If you had C Band you could get the shows talking about cience things from the BBC and Discovery at the SatMex satellites, they usually show them with subtitles in spanish and english audio.
University of California's channel also it's pretty good, altough they tend to show a lot of info aimed to oceanographers like myself so... they hit me in a sweet spot
.Other than that just the PBS channels and nothing more about history/real-no-bogus-cience (like UFO, bigfoot, et al).
Today they are taking time-out from their usual fear-mongering to show "The People Speak", some actual history.
Thank goodness they finally got off of that broken record. I'm so sick of war stuff. My dad is a war/gun nut and I've had more than enough of that nonsense for this lifetime.
