#1009 – I miss “One Way Out”
Aug26
One of my favorite short-lived Discovery channel shows was “One Way Out” – a show about an escape artist trying to improve his skills. The science was pretty bad, but watching a guy try (and usually fail) to escape from death traps of his own devising? Comedy Gold.
It was much better than “A Hanuting” anyway.
doyle, what is the ball that scotch is in?
p.s.
woot! first comment!
😛
I know that every channel is a business, but it’s whacked to have an “educational” channel not complete a series if it’s less than popular. Commit!
…and then I remember the title and concept and have to remind myself that this isn’t exactly a documentary series on the role of lice in history or something. This is edutainment, even if at its best. Beats the heck out of the “history” on the History Channel.
I wonder how Dennis feels about being tied up for the rest of the week? 😀
“Hanuting”? :p
@Rybbert: I hate that show so much I can’t even spell. 😛
I feel ya Doyle.
Think Haunting is bad? Try some of the Ghost Hunting garbage on SciFi. It angers up the blood just thinking of that tripe.
Is one way out the show where that guy zip-tied his hands to a table and put a scorpion in his mouth, because if so that is the same guy who did the room full of bees and the spinny chair. That show was cool.
You think Ghost Hunting on SiFi is bad? Try watching one episode of CN Real’s Ghost series and try not to laugh at how obvious it is that it’s fake.
CN Real is almost fully dead, thank God.
@cobrien: Yep – that scorpion episode is the one that hooked me.
If you haven’t seen it, check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj_1Zriyq9o
After seeing that, you’ll always smile at the phrase “you know what would really suck?”
@ohmyjam: It’s a very annoying combination of two identical bricks that I personally don’t dare to separate in fear of breaking the little pins connecting them together. Used as air bubble for the squirrel in the Spongebob series as well as on lamps.
@Art Fever: Can you provide us with a BrickLink?
(sorry, I had to make that pun)
I’d say the fakest ghost show is ghost trackers
@Art Fever & Sheri: Here you go, the version of Sandy Cheeks without keychain:
