Was that the channel that became the killing Hitler channel after the Killing Hitler channel went all Aliens, and then became the Aliens channel after the Aliens channel went all ice road logger people?

H2 was a channel that sometimes had interesting shows. Oh well, it's now in my TLC "frick even looking" bin.

This is really beautifully stated. I mean, spot on.

vice used to be pretty cool, and their war stuff is usually good. the rest of it it has turned to trash though.

The only stuff of VICE that I watch is their war coverage. They've done a fairly good job with covering the conflict in Syria and Iraq.

Have you never seen the documentary show Vice on HBO? Viceland is basically the same thing except now they've expanded to have shows that cover specific topics.

Weediquite looks at marijuana use in mainstream culture. The episode coming up deals with people using pot to alleviate cancer symptoms.

Gaycation has Ellen Page going to different countries to show what life for LGBT people outside the US is like.

Balls Deep looks at various subcultures around the world and the guy reporting gets into it kind of like how Mike Rowe gets down and dirty for Dirty Jobs. In the first episode the host goes to a Pentecostal tent revival.


you can see several of the early episodes for these shows for free on their website.

So according to that synopsis the programs aren't terrible, just the names. Whoever named these and whoever signed off on the names needs to be smacked.

Watching now. Some of these documentary shows look pretty interesting.

Vice Essentials. "Bare Knuckle" A look into the world of underground bare knuckle boxing in the British Isles. Will watch.

Where am I gonna get my Aliens and Hitler fix now???

I haven't seen any of these shows on the new Viceland channel, but I have a hard to believing it (or anything) won't be better than the trash H2 constantly broadcast.

I just programmed it out of my guide. I'm down to less than 25 channels that I potentially watch. It might be time to cancel Directv.

Tried watching a show called Flop house. Didn't last long. I hope some of you found it good. Different taste I guess.
