Veroe's idea box

I like History channel's Top Shots, but that's about as close as I will get to a reality show. Okay, well, I confess to watching Stan Lee's Who wants to be a Superhero.

Other than that, it's History, Discovery, Science, Versus (for bull riding) movie channels, Comedy Central (stand up) and a few others.

Discovery, the Science Channel...the only Reality TV worth watching (How It's Made and How Do They Do That are two of the greatest shows ever)
 
fave reality shows...Ace of cakes, Pawn stars, American Pickers, Border Wars, Operation Repo. All shows about Real people living their Real lives working in their Real jobs. Reality isn't a game show or talent contest.

Precisely. Also good are Mythbusters, guys who prove or disprove myths and urban legends for a living.
 
Dragonrazor, those are two of the best shows! I also used to love Junkyard Wars when they had it on.

LR, it sounds like our tastes run the same on most of those things. I haven't become a fan of the MMA or UFC stuff yet, but I have watched a few matches while flipping through channels.

I've been watching a lot of AMC lately. They've been running a lot of John Wayne, and I love the Duke!
 
Mythbusters, Pawn Stars, Auction Wars, those are the only reality shows I'm aware of watching. I don't mind a few reality competition shows, but only in moderation.

I vote for a change in reality television. Put me in charge. I'll come up with the perfect competition based Reality show. The Darwin Awards. The winners win. The losers...usually remove themselves from the gene pool
 
LR, Spike? Let me guess, 1000 ways to Die? :D

Best Mythbusters ever: the water heater episode! Did you see that thing blow?

I also will stop on CSI (the original) pretty much anywhere I see it on.

I was more impressed with the cement truck :D
 
It was a larger explosion, but the water heater was all steam!

True. It also went straight through a building roof without damaging the building *impish grin*

an excerpt from my sales pitch for The Darwin Awards.

Nature doesn't do ANYTHING halfassed. That should be a slogan: The Darwin Awards. The Winners win. The losers....usually remove themselves from the gene pool
Nature doesn't do ANYTHING halfassed. That should be a slogan: Special guest competitors: Britney Spears. Justin Timberlake. Kim Kardashian. George W Bush. Rihanna. Chris Brown....
Nature doesn't do ANYTHING halfassed. That should be a slogan: Justin Bieber
Nature doesn't do ANYTHING halfassed. That should be a slogan: JK Rowling
Nature doesn't do ANYTHING halfassed. That should be a slogan: that chick who wrote Twilight
 
John Wayne is the man.

I got into MMA because I studied Kenpo for almost five years when I was between 6 and 11 and I like the fighting. I got hooked into the UFC in particular by the rather famous/infamous Forrest Griffin Stephan Bonnar fight.

Yeah, I enjoy 1000 ways to die, and every now and then Manswers will have useless trivia that I can file away.
 
BTW, Veroe, sorry for running off with your thread, hon.

Having said that, there is one other Spike show I found somewhat interesting: Ultimate Warrior.

Oh, and I love those Fight Science shows.
 
Wow, you guys really went off on the conversation, and here I am trying to complete an owed post for Sally.

This is nothing. I've got several people on my messenger lists telling me I need to make this Darwin Awards show lol.

Apologies again, Veroe. But I did enjoy the discussion. I'm heading off to sleep now. Guys, I enjoyed talking with you all. Good night. :kiss:
 
*Slips in to admire the artwork*
Sir, you have tastes that run quite alongside my own. Excellent choices, and each one quite evocative.

I search for pics that have an interesting story to them, or conveys an interesting character to them for me.

This is my idea box and every pic here has an idea behind it.
