Your Guide to the Discovery Channel
Friday, January 19, 2007I love the Discovery Channel. Why? It’s the only “cable” channel we get in our “basic cable” package. Apparently that package means local programming + spanish channels + paid programming + Discovery Channel. Now that you understand why I’m a self-declared expert on the aforementioned channel, read on to learn more about the diverse programming found on Discovery…
Lets play a matching game! Try to match the description with the show:
- Freezing, Wet Jobs – Learn how hard it is to fish in the Bearing Sea (hint: you get cold and wet).
- Explosive Jobs – Explore the excitement behind blowing something up four different ways every week.

- Construction Jobs – Learn how just about every complicated structure in the world is made and how it never goes right.
