I forgot about that show! :) what not to wear is still on during the middle of the day!</p> <p>I think TLC has kind of turned into ...well, people-watching, for lack of better word. HAHA. It's all series about things that are like a train wreck...you don't want to watch but can't look away! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331580 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 11:31:45 +0000 JoJoGirl 331580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: YES!! They had a whole series where they showed surgeries - I was obsessed with them in high school. Totally unedited, I saw a knee replacement, c-section, and some facial resconstruction surgery on a toddler. Yeah the last one was my last rodeo.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331564 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 11:22:08 +0000 Meridian 331564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to love TLC and was obsessed with Trading Spaces and What Not to Wear. But now I never watch TLC because all their shows seem so trashy :T </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331556 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 11:15:11 +0000 spaniellove 331556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: @JoJoGirl: I swear I remember watching a show where they did brain surgery when TLC first went on the air. It traumatized the heck out of me because I was in kindergarten (and I wanted my Disney Channel back), but it was so much more educational than...Honey Boo Boo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331550 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 11:10:52 +0000 wheres_c 331550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been watching breaking amish, but it's so fake it's ridiculous. The cast have had DUI's, Marriages, Children out of Wedlock. There's a facebook page dedicated to pointing out all the fake stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331494 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 10:42:31 +0000 prettylizy 331494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH just watched a South Park episode where they dissed TLC because they don't show much learning info anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331492 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 10:41:45 +0000 edelweiss 331492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was wondering the same thing about TLC this past weekend when i saw a commercial for breaking amish. </p> <p>oh my gosh the peeing in the jar. no words. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331427 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 10:04:29 +0000 Boogs 331427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: Yeah every time it pulls me in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331112 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 06:58:04 +0000 JoJoGirl 331112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: I do actually adore that show. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331110 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 06:57:33 +0000 JoJoGirl 331110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: I know, right? Someone posted on FB yesterday that TLC was founded in like '87 by NASA... now they show honeybooboo..</p> <p>(I believe it was a political post about not letting the same thing happen to PBS, but that's besides the point!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-331038 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 02:13:17 +0000 Boogs 331038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm watching Long Island Medium now.

I hope? And the lady peeing in a jar...Wowwy wow wow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-330945 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 21:53:27 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 330945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They certainly aren't The Learning Channel anymore... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-330940 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 21:49:22 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 330940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha I knowwww!!! I'm watching I didn't know I was pregnant right now but I actually am super excited about "cheapskates". I'm lame... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-tlc-come-up-with-these-shows#post-330937 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 21:47:51 +0000 lawbee11 330937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't get me wrong, I love them (especially Honey Boo Boo), but TLC has the craziest lineup of shows. My strange addiction is kinda ridiculous, and I just watched an episode of Breaking Amish this weekend that was just plain weird. Tonight I saw a preview for Extreme Cheapskates--as the name suggests, it follows around penny-pinchers. Where do they come up with this stuff?! </p>
