I must have watched a different Breaking Bad................the one I watched showed people killing people, dismembering bodies, cooking Meth as a way to earn money to provide for your famly. Both show entertain, one shows the stupidity of some families and their demographic's, the other entertains with the brutality of killing, stealing and breakng the law. WOW I wonder which one will dull ones brain

You Watch your Tongue
Don't talk Bad about Breaking Bad
On another note,Honey Boo Boo's family's only bringing in 40k a year for the show

Reality star Honey Boo Boo is working on the cheap
I was flipping through channels on my way to Food Network and happened to see a chubby little girl wearing a dirty shirt spitting a mouthful of water at a man (her father??) on The Learning Channel??????
But you see, that's not even close to true. There's plenty of excellent TV these days, and the proliferation of Cable means there's more niche TV to be shown. The problem is that the networks focus on the wrong things and cancel the more expensive shows, which usually tend to be the superior ones. The media just likes to focus on this trash because most of the people who write and read gossip columns are intellectually vacant and vapid.
The funny thing is that last night I was watching a program on the orbits of planets and how some planets have very different orbits...you know, intellectual scientific stuff on THE SCIENCE CHANNEL...and guess what I saw: A freaking commercial for "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo".
It was my first time actually seeing what this "show" was and I couldn't believe it. It was MUCH worse than I imagined. I thought it was just a show that followed one specific Toddler being exploited by her mother, but it's actually just another show about rednecks. Why do we need another redneck show? Why do we even need a single redneck show?
Why would I, someone who is watching a program on planetary orbits, have any desire to even see a preview of this trash?
No, if people like you contribute to the ratings that this kind of trash gets...yeah I have a problem with you.
People like you are the reason why "The History Channel" went from being intelligent and educational to being a pathetic redneck channel without any educational value whatsoever. You people turned A&E from a channel about culture to one about freaking toddlers, pedophiles and horrible mothers.
It's atrocious that anyone can watch this kind of filth and it says a lot about you as a person if you do.
You obviously would be happier watching the Rocket Scientist channel. I've heard they don't air those intrusive 30 second Honey Boo Boo promos. Or maybe use that time to channel surf like many normal folk do.
For someone so appalled and disgusted, you seem to be spending a lot of quality time on this thread.
I missed Honey Boo Boo last night BC CSPAN has no commercials, dang gum it.......

I'd rather watch this show than that ego-fest aka "Keeping Up with the Kardashians".
At Least the kardashians remind me of the show dynasty compared to the extremely hateful trash called here comes honey boo boo, even lizard lick towing is a lot better than this mess.
Yes Lizard Lick Towing is fake, but it's much more entertaining than crappy here comes honey boo boo, lizard lick towing is the dukes of hazzard of reality shows, even southern fried stings is better.
I Wish Jay Russell would investigate this family from here comes honey boo boo, I Root for him.
I know about how they are all under the same conglomerate, but advertising is supposed to appeal to the proper target demographic. Why anyone watching Science would ever want to watch this pathetic show or any that are similar is beyond me. The executives who run History, Discovery, A&E, etc. should be shot. They are contributing to the degradation of society by pushing this trash on us.
Why? Why would you watch? There are literally a thousand other channels out there, why watch this trash? Why not read a book or exercise instead of poisoning your brain with such nonsense? Even the Home Shopping Network would be better.
It's sickening to me. I'm ashamed to be a part of the same species as the kind of people who would rather watch "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" than "Breaking Bad".
I actually exercise WHILE I'm watching Honey Boo Boo. It's one of the shows that keeps me entertained while on the treadmill.
They don't beat their kids, they don't take handouts, they pay their taxes and their kids are happy, healthy and clearly loved. The house is clean and tidy and they all clearly enjoy their time together, which is more than what I can say for a lot of families.

Talk about dull brains. Breaking Bad is the exact opposite of what you're saying. Walter White is an anti-hero, you are supposed to dislike him because he's ruthless and lacks a moral code. Much of the show is about that whole struggle. His wife wants nothing to do with him. Even his meth-cooking partner finds him to be morally corrupt. Metacritic gave the show's current season a 99. Every reviewer except one gave it a perfect 100 score, which is better than any other scripted television program in the history of that website. Yes, it is violent, but so is the world. It does not glorify the violence, it paints it in a negative light, and it definitely does not glorify the drugs.
You see, it is a television program that takes more intellect than "haw haw, them rednecks is funny!"

I WAS watching the rocket scientist channel. I was watching a program on astronomical orbit of exo-planets when I saw my first promo for this pathetic excuse for a show.

I'm on the thread complaining about it. I'm annoyed that this program is getting so much press. I'm appalled that this show actually garners high ratings.
