I find that they rarely talk about past history anymore. Like I said in another thread, more often than not they are searching for mythical creatures, ufos, showing mega disasters or the end of the world, the universe, guys with scary jobs, or modern marvels. How is any of this history?
I agree- that's part of what I was talking about when I said that they aren't always great. Those "Modern Marvels" shows annoy the crap out of me.
But there's definitely still some history there. That list of stuff that I've watched recently provides some examples.
Bumpity bump. I'm watching "Last Days of Earth" and they are talking about the other GRB -- gamma ray bursts and what would happen if a black hole wandered near Earth. One of the guys just said that if he had to pick a way to die cosmically, it would be by a black hole.
And I watched "Gangland" last weekend. What a fascinating and disturbing show.
