Veteran  698   |  Subject: The Honey Boo Boo reality show. Seriously?!?I realize that the network, whichever one it is, wouldn't do this if they didn't think it would sell, so obviously, there are people who are going to watch this, but all I can ask is.... Why?
Even if I didn't have a daughter I would find this disgusting
I don't really think that this is even threadworthy, just felt the urge to mention this. |

Master 1441  North edge of nowhere | Subject: RE: The Honey Boo Boo reality show. Seriously?!? Apparently I don't pay enough attention to TV; I had to look this one up. I can't imagine watching this, but it's an interesting reflection of U.S. culture (or lack of) that someone thinks this show will be watched. The brief article I found about it says the 6-year-old child "Honey Boo Boo" (I would never give my child a name like that, but she's not my child) drinks a combination of Red Bull and Mt. Dew. I am willing to bet that's not good for anyone, let alone a 6-year-old. |

So Popeye's spinach is being replaced by Redbull and Mt Dew? Hmmm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ug8p5pVsj9U |

Champion 11989 Philly 'burbs | Subject: RE: The Honey Boo Boo reality show. Seriously?!? I'm happy to see this. The sooner we get the pendulum swinging all they way to the extreme of all that is vile, the sooner it will begin to swing back towards beauty and purity. This is surely a huge push in the vile direction. |

(and I stress the word crap, and the word trailer)... With a home environment like that, $20 says she's hooked on meth before age 16. I'm afraid if I watch it, it will end badly. Kind of like the video in "The Ring", except that instead of costing me my life, it will cost me IQ points... |

*Gulp*, as am I... Maybe there are a few thing you just can't argue about and this is one? So "cheers" to Honey Boo Boo for uniting the world! The Olympics and Honey Boo Boo. |

I would like to think this proposed "programming" represents rock bottom, but I fear we're not even close yet. But I'm with you in theory. |

I imagine bottom being when we have a channel devoted to a guy hitting himself in the 'nads with a sledgehammer. 24 hours of nut-busting. And it gets middling to high ratings. All day long. "Didja see 'Hammertime' yesterday, Joe?" "Sure did Bob. Love that show. Wham, wham, wham! Hahaha" "Hahaha. Wham!" |
