The Learning Channel's "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" got a higher rating in the 18-48 demo than the RNC

I can understand the duel appeal of both TV shows.
One of them is about a group of overweight rednecks living in a fantasy world and the other one is about Honey Boo Boo.
Bazinga.

The REAL Learning Channels are PBS and CSPAN.
