Cable execs: I see your point. In 2024 we'll be introducing trash reality shows that feature the weather.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 55 points 6 months ago

They don't even need to feature the weather. TLC stands for The Learning Channel and no one learns anything from their shows.

The only thing you learn from TLC is that you don't want to watch TLC

Well, in fairness to them, I learned I don’t want no Scrubs. Which is good as I think that aired on ABC

A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fine

[-] Bonehead@kbin.social 10 points 6 months ago

That's absolutely not true. I've learned that I may be messy sometimes, but at least I'm not walking through goat paths of garbage. I've learned that I may be a bit of a fuck up that enjoys recreational drugs, but at least I'm not walking on sunshine. And I've learned that I may be bit overweight, but at least I'm not bed-ridden and disappointing my doctor. I always feel better about myself after watching a TLC show.

I legit always thought it was Tender Loving Care.

I mean, it was definitely a play on the acronym

I've definitely learned how exploitative it is to force people in terrible life situations, many suffering from mental illness and/or some sort of past trauma or are just in a bad spot all around, to broadcast their lives for all to see and gawk at.

Oh you have a severe eating disorder that is extremely dangerous to your health? What a Freaky Eater you are! You also clearly have your Strange Addiction so we can exploit you twice for the same effort! Oh you're not even living paycheck to paycheck and are dumpster diving behind the grocery store to feed your family? We got an Extreme Cheapskate over here!

I'd watch me some Tornado Alley Trailer Park Wives.

Cross it with Wizard of Oz, and you can get: Tornado Alley Trailer Park Wives on Survivor Island
