TLC used to be called the "The Learning Channel", and was home to a fine lineup of educational broadcasting.  I remember watching Medical CME programming on it once upon a time.  Now it features such fare as "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo", "Americas Worst Tattoos" and "Buying Naked".  History Channel used to specialize in historical documentaries but now features "Pawns Stars", "The Curse of Oak Island" and "Ancient Aliens".  After reading this article, I blame you for this state of affairs Emily Fehrenbacher.  If you need to be "entertained" all the time, why can't you stick to the sitcoms, and leave at least a little room on the TV dial for something with a modicum of educational and enrichment value?  If you and everyone like you actually WATCHES shows like "Alaskan Bush People", then Discovery will continue to film the trash, pushing out any potentially decent programming they might otherwise come up with.
