The Non News Channel I Can't Stand the Most is........ - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TLC, what an awful channel filled with crap. I can't even be around it with out getting annoyed. My Mom and Sister have it on all the time. I can't go downstairs in front of the TV and talk to them when it is on. It is awful. All those Makeover Shows and Decorating Shows are terrible. Let's reward people by giving them thousands of dollars and they can't even take care of themselves. It is awful. Who else can't stand TLC. I don't learn anything on there. They should change the name of the station to Totally Looney Crap.

I love it! It's better than the soap opera day time crap when you're at home during the day.

You wanna know a channel that's full of crap?? Animal Planet. I hate that channel.

They had some great eductional programming (it was a sister network of the then-similarly programmed Discovery Channel) up until the early part of this decade, at which point, they shifted their focus to their current programming scheme.

I used to miss it, but now there are great high definition channels such as Discovery HD Theatre and National Geographic HD to fill the void. INHD2 is also a great substitute, as they show a lot of classic IMAX films (although Comcast in my area recently dropped it in favor of ESPN2HD).

I used to sometimes watch Trading Spaces, but I don't anymore. One show that was somewhat interesting on TLC was Little People Big World.

EmoJoe · 08-07-2006, 05:31 PM

I love Animal Planet.

I hate design shows and whatnot, so that's probably why I don't watch TLC. I'd rather watch the Discovery Health Channel.

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 08-07-2006, 09:30 PM

I LOVE TLC. Trading Spaces, What Not To Wear, Miami Ink...ahhh best shows ever.

I stopped watching TLC when they got rid of "The Dating Story"

I can't stand any of the so-called home shopping channels. To me they're just a bunch of smarmy hucksters selling their wares to unsuspecting people to have them part with their money for stuff they don't need, or can buy elsewhere. I can't see wasting good TV channels on this stuff, and that part of my cable bill goes toward having this crap aired p***** me off.

Look on the bright side. They could be watching lifetime. Or worse, Oxygen.

So, thinking about it that way, I voted in-between.

Good point, but still-lol They all stink. There is nothing I like on any of the three.
