A Dying Breed
It never fails that there are plenty of things to watch on TV however most of it is CRAP. Everyone knows the saying one million channels and nothing on. Well it never fails I end up watching one of two shows on reruns No Reservations or Dirty Jobs. Most of the time it does not even matter what their show is about. Just hearing them talk about culture or life while in the exact moment it happens an no added BS just to make it full of drama is what keeps my attention. Below are two videos one from each of the shows hosts. Both are quite long but worth the time.
Anthony Bourdain
Mike Roe
Now you might ask why I chose the title of this post as a Dying Breed. Well I say this because shows like this that are based on or show “true reality” they try to make sure things are as true to real and in the moment as possible. Sure there are some scripted parts of the show however they do not manufacture drama or “good TV”. A few of those shows you might know where they manufacture “good TV” is American Chopper, Big Brother, Survivor, and the list goes on. These types of shows are a dying breed while the manufactured “true life” shows every moment of every waking day are invading the airwaves. If you have not see No Reservations or Dirty Jobs I would recommend you take some time and watch them.
