Well, A&E should change its name to “The Bigotry Channel”, I suppose.

Junk TV—easy to produce, not much cost involved since you can get State govts to help fund it. I mean, why do you think there are so many “shows” about Alaska?

One half-hour show would suffice for any and all of the premises these shows are based on—not an entire series for several seasons, for crying out loud.

For instance, do I want to watch people’s pathologies being broadcast nationwide, like “Hoarders”, for instance? That is little more than cruel exploitation.

Nothing but garbage. Lowest bid vessels to deliver advertisements.

Totally correct assessment.
