Should they just rename the channel already?
There's literally nothing Historic going on this channel.

The Hitler Channel

In the 90s maybe.
Now it's the trash collector channel.
they should take all their known history shows and turn it all into one show
pickers run a pawn shop that sells conspiracies and its all operated in a semi
IT'S JUST A GOOD, SOLID, TANK
I don't know where it all went wrong. The most educational show on there is fucking Pawn Stars and that's only because Rick gives an explanation of almost every item they get. You used to be able to find at least something historically related, but now just garbage. Looking at their schedule on the website:
>Pawn Stars
>Ice Road Truckers
>Axe Men
>Mountain Men
>Alone
No, in the 90s and 2000s it was genuinely about antiquity. Around 2008 is when they had all the Hitler shit and then 2011 was when the pawn stars, aliens, etc. shit we have today came.

Zoomer pls. The late 90s was nonstop WWII shit.

what went wrong
ELEPHANTS 2: CROSS HARDER
Started pandering to brainlets
In the early 2000s, I watched this channel all the time for stuff like History's Mysteries and the other antiquity related stuff (I forget all of them but I remember a French language one in the early morning).
capitalism
Judaism
Oxygen literally rebranded from general women's interest to 24-hour true crime murder-porn, because that's apparently what millennial women are into
Hitler's on Military History Channel now.
Does anyone else remember an old commercial from this channel that has Cleopatra walking in on Marc Antony and Octavian and it's implied they had sex?
reality TV is cheap to produce and gets good ratings
>tfw still watch reruns of SVU on USA
here in my 3rd world poopsock we have history channel which is basically some knife-making contest + pawn stars all day non stop, and history 2 which is mostly actual history documentaries.
>WW2 isn't history
forged in fire is comfy
Didn't make that claim.
literally every 20-something chick I know watches serial killer documentaries and listens to true-crime podcasts
when the fuck did this start happening?
you keep using the word "antiquity" only
Haven't used it once.
Yea Forums really needs post IDs
it always happened
true crime paperbacks used to be the rage with women
Post your favorite boomer channels
Is there anything worse than an American documentary on any subject?
>lion roaring in the background
every time.
I watch forged in fire and alone. They're not good shows, but better than everything else.
women masturbate furiously to this, killers receive tons of letters from women in prison
>(((capitalism)))
How's Pawn Stars holding up after Old Man passed?
>hating on the History Channel
>Should they just rename the channel already?
>There's literally nothing Historic going on this channel.
But then they couldn't trick you into believing whatever you're watching is truthful.
kek
for me its ancient aliens
what was their conclusion after 12 seasons of looking? did they find any?
yes
I like Alone but I have no idea what's supposed to be even remotely historical about it. Maybe that SINGLE quote at the beginning?
kek no and now its on season 14
Some KOIND of evidence?
best programme was life after humans
take a nap boomer
>basically some knife-making contest
at least forged in fire is pretty good
it gets repetitive fast
tv in general is a dying medium
Forged in Fire is pretty good.
Project Blue Book season 2 when?
You've seen nothing, now that (((Disney))) owns Nat Geo expect for the worse in a few years.
Ancient aliens is pretty comfy television.
yup thats why i like to watch it
this
and it's every time
>masculinity amongst the male population is at an all time low whilst s o y consumption, anime watching and infantile interests are at an all time high
>women are desperately looking for some form of high test and have resorted to brutal murderers and psychopathic killers
Blame yourselves, desu
Is that madlad still on the show?
>brutal murderers and psychopathic killers
>Blame yourselves, desu
I'M TOO HIGH TEST TO UNDERSTAND WHAT DESU MEANS YOU JAPANESE CARTOON HOMOSEXUAL
>too high test to understand
>knew it was from Japanese anime
Hmmmm
of course
doesn't deny being homosexual

Forged in Fire and Pawnstars are the best shows. I'll also accept American Pickers. Danielle Colby is CUTE.
The History channel is many things, but one thing it is not is a channel about history.
Reminds me of the misnaming in 1984, the ministry of Love and so on.
Turns out that the largest television watching demographic consists of barely educated urbanites
Never watched a single second of any of those shows.
