TV show: Wife Swap Hippies & Rednecks

[gopguy]

Pity the hunter's wife did not demand the greenie weenie PETA dad go out and buy a gun so he could defend her and his pathetic linguini spined family if attacked......Oh, yeah. Conservatives are not supposed to impose our views on the lefties...but they can do it to us.

I agree with Missashot....crap TV. Most evening if the TV is on it is Fox News or the History Ch.

 

[matthewdanger]

What ever happened to men being the head of the house? I'm glad I've never heard of this show.

 

[garand_shooter]

I don't watch Reality TV, and after reading this thread, that position is reinforced. BTW, isn't PETA against the ownership of pets?

 

[V4Vendetta]

I never saw the show either. I don't watch a lot of reality TV. I don't watch a lot of ANY TV. When I get home from a day at work, I relax with a book or nap.

I thought the scenario might make for some interesting debate between the hunter and the hippie. No such luck.

You'd think that, wouldn't you? I watched a couple of episodes of that show Dharma and Greg, and I waited with bated breath to see if they did anything but bounce the "dirty ridiculous hippies" off the "dirty ridiculous richies", in the hopes that there might be actual discussion, debate, understanding, some kind of poignant point made about something worth talking about!

But no. People are so terrified of offending or alienating their audience that they refuse to go any deeper than tangential contact between opposing ideologies, which leads to lots of almost-giggleworthy wisecracks and zaaaaany situations, but resolves nothing and provokes no thought.

There is an ignorant person somewhere out there that is stupid enough to believe that the gun owning man got rid of his firearms for good.

Somewhere?!? Looks like we got us some here.

It's TV! It's not real. No one has to give anything up permanently. TV!:banghead:

I saw that show about a year ago, on UK TV.

Almost had me in hysterics.

"Th... th... they... ve... g..g..got... a... a... Confererate Flag!" [near-nervous breakdown]

"Th... th... they... ve... g..g..got... g... g... guns!" [near-nervous breakdown #2]

If I remember right, though, I did think the Conservative husband was a bit of a bastard at times.


Still... both parties chose to take part in the program, so all heartache resulting from it is entierly their own fault, IMO.

 

[Koobuh]

You mean the glowing box will show more than DVDs?



This nonsense is why I stopped watching television yeeears ago. Now I just need to cut down on my internet time and read more books.

 

[Turkey Creek]

Never seen it, never going to see it and I can't believe anyone actually watches this drivel-

 

[Spec ops Grunt]

My tv is only on for Adult swim and video games.

After spending the evening with family and then getting the kids in bed, Mrs Scout and I watched "12 Angry Men" on either AMC or TCM. "To Kill A Mockingbird" was on the other night on one of those stations.

Other then the occasional classic movie, the TV is mostly used for "Dance Dance Revolution" (A video game my 12 year old daughter "does", it not a sit in front and punch button games, but a move your body and stomp your feet on pad game) or "Thomas the Tank" and "Bob the Builder" videos for my 5 year old. (He also likes the Three Stooges, but who doesn't.)

Mrs Scout refers to the History Channel as "The Hitler Channel".

Network TV ???? Reality TV ???? What's that ?????

 

[PlayboyPenguin]

My tv is only on for Adult swim and video games.

Yea!!! Adult swim!!! Harvey Birdman...Attorney at laaawwwwwwww!!!! Don't forget the sci-fi channel though. BATTLESTAR GALACTICA RULES!!!

 

[mordechaianiliewicz]

I don't have to worry about this because I'm never getting married. I'll just spend my days with my dog, guns & work. My dog never wants me to trade in my guns, never wants me to eat only vegetables*, doesn't mind if I stay up & watch TV, is happy to go for a walk when I am & won't leave my side when I need her. Who needs a wife? I don't want kids so I have no need for a wife.


*There would be less scraps for her.

There are things you do with a wife I certainly hope you don't do with your dog V. (just playing) I'm single, and hope to con some poor lady into taking me.

My guns however are something about me you must accept at the least (and if you only accept, you'll like 'em inside of a month 'cause I'm persuasive like that).

Anyone interested? Throw me mail. Bwahahahahahaha!!!!

Firefly FTW!

Anyone else want a holodeck from star trek.

Go to the range anytime!

I'm not a Star Trek, Star Wars, etc. fan BUT I absolutely love(d) Firefly/Serenity. Anything Joss Whedon touches is gold

 

[KriegHund]

Ok, if this happened to me, i would laugh at her every five minutes hystericly.

Secondly i would state that i am a huma nbeing, and as such i have certain rights- like eating meat, and owning property.

Thirdly i would laugh at her some more while she cried. Wonder what she would think of my 'heartless libertian' shirt i wore today. Or of my wall o' weapons.

Kinda makes me wanna do one of those things, just cause, so long as i didnt lose anything valuable, it would be real funny.

Hey, its 8:57.

 

[SomeKid]

I saw a few references to the PETA woman having cops take the mans guns away? Can someone give the whole account, surely that is not it.

 

[V4Vendetta]

There are things you do with a wife I certainly hope you don't do with your dog V. (just playing) I!

That's just sick & wrong on so many levels. I understand that your joking but still that's just sick.

 

[Sindawe]

Mrs Scout refers to the History Channel as "The Hitler Channel".

BWAHAHAHAHHAHA I can see how she'd get the impression. Last Sundays "Hitler Special" was rather interesting though, focused on the "High Tech" aspects of that murderous regime. Interesting cautionary tale about how the most technically advanced and cultured nation in Europe could so easily fall into barbarism.

Anyone else want a holodeck from star trek.

Oh yea, then I could chill out drinking raslack on Moya at the end of hard day. AFTER shooting those cool weapons.

I've always liked the idea of wife swapping! But I've seen a similar show where they moved in a vegan type hippie lady into a cajuns home and they even got her to eat a piece of alligator!

My wife and I watched that one. We COULDN'T STAND her!!! I mean i just wanted the vegan to sthu. I love how her husband got so mad about her trying some alligator. Overall annoying episode.

[tellner]

The whole point of the show, from what I gather, is to put people together who are going to clash. Since we don't allow bloodsports we substitute with TV shows that rip people's hearts out. Hence this, The Swan (abominable), Jerry Springer, The "Your Fired!" Apprentice and so on. I'd have thought there was enough gratuitous pain and cruelty in the world.

Shows like that show why I hardly ever watch TV anymore and I only wish I still had cable to see gun related stuff like on the history channel though once or twice I felt I knew as much if not more than some of the "experts" on there, I think I remember catching a mistake or two on there, just technicalities though. And I miss Da Ali G Show, a comic genius and he went to a range once even!

As for "wife swapping" someone I used to work for actually was in a swingers club but he actually got kicked out! If you ever saw his wife though, you wouldn't wan't to swap anything with her!
