Just seen this program, well if you can call it that. Is it for real ?

What a jerk he is, and his misses if fat. She could chase me all day and never catch me.

And he just said he ' nearly survived' a bike crash?? you either survive or not lol

Oh well time for a film instead.

.That show is the highest rated show on that particular channel-Dog is real and was arrested in Mexico for something or other -big mess -he was chasing some bail jumper etc.--he's real. He is primarily in Hawaii -that is where most of the show is done I think.
Just some more reality- garbage TV. I have a friend who is bonkers over Mrs Dog. He likes the big ones. To each his own I guess.

Yet another reason we Yanks need to beg for mercy from you friends across the pond. How we can foist this rubbish upon you is beyond me. Truly.
Especially since you retain exclusive viewing rights to the Eurovision song contest!
Thanking you...

Nobody forces you to watch TV. If rubbish didn't get watched, they wouldn't make it.

And that's a pretty sad commentary on our culture and population.

I have to interject and say that "Dog-The Bounty Hunter" DOES NOT represent our culture and population. Yea, he caught Luster - a famous and rich fugitive.....but......he is an idiot who got lucky when somebody thought of and had the ability to cast the idea of televising this show.

You're missing my point. My point is that the success of so many horrible television shows is hugely embarrassing to anyone with active gray matter, because it shows how thousands of people are willing to spend their time.

Ok, I understand your point now. So I guess anpther example of what you are talking about would be The Jerry Springer Show! Amazing how it was deemed "the worst show ever" and it lasted what......? 12 years?

Another show I couldn't stomach.

I prefer some of the programming lunacy from across the pond. Top Gear comes to mind. Delightful show. My wife thinks I'm nuts for watching it. Guess she's right. But I accuse her of the same for watching that dribble American Idol.

Hasn't Jerry been on for 13 yrs? Whatever, it's all crap. Just like all those star magazines at the grocery checkout. It would be great if people could wise up and stop buying / watching all that crap. ***shakes head in disgust***

It was on at a place where I had no control over the channels. Much to my shock. Also I think I can see past the ' All Americans are like this' part Well most.

Family Guy now that IS good, and from over the water.

PS: Is his mullet real, I think there extensions myself.
