OMFG..Anyone watch History's "God, Guns, and Automobiles"?

[pipoman]

Holy Shit has History finally completely jumped the shark? Fucked in the head "Mancow Muller" and his unbelievably fucked in the head brother..

1. Yes, a few nights ago... the dealer's brother wanted to by a hybrid vehicle, was crucified by host.

It's the discovery channel, right?

Or science?

[pipoman]

2. History..

These are the guys who give car salesmen a bad name. "All my salesmen are outlaws, I like it that way"..is just one of the hundred or so stupid statements made by this asshat..

"Mancow" used to (may still) spew his vile bilge on Faux and Friends regularly..

[NYC_SKP]

4. I remember Mancow from NY, the Howard Stern show, I think.

Amazing waste of cable bandwidth.

7. and food, and air, and water..

(a waste that is)

[Nevernose]

3. I can say precisely one good thing about Mancow:

He had himself water boarded to prove that it wasn't torture. Quit after about two seconds and said, "I was wrong. Water boarding is torture."

5. Mancow?? Holy crap that's a name I haven't heard in awhile.

I assumed that knob had finally finished swirling down the toilet of American media.

[pipoman]

6. LOL

he has if this is is where he's devolved to..

[shenmue]

8. Oh, the HC went bad a long time ago

Now almost all they have is bad speculative shows. There's a difference between that and history.

[pipoman]

9. Yeah,

the success of Pawners and Pickers brought so much more money and viewers than 'Mussolini:Man or Monster' they are trying to find other big viral hits... I would like to think History is left leaning (or ideally apolitical if that were possible) and this ridiculous show is an attempt to help people see how idiotic the hard right is..I fear the audience will be shittoheads and may give some of them stupid ideas..like blowing up a car with C4 to reward a bunch of unscrupulous outlaw used car salesmen

10. Real history has a well known liberal bias.

The enlightenment, the evil of fascism, the New Deal, the civil rights movement- the liberals are the good guys way too often in real history. So is it really surprising that the History Channel prefers reality shows about rednecks?

11. I stopped watching HC when they presented Knights Templar conspiracy

theories and Nostradamus as "history"

The channel should be forced to change their name. It seems to be mostly fake history and reality TV shows.

12. "That price...is too fucking high!"

[pipoman]

13. LOL

exactly...exactly what this was..Did you see it? Madcow's brother (the owner) blew up a car with C4 to reward his salesmen for selling a bunch of cars...so incredibly redneck it is hard to believe..
