Anyone watching Animal Planet Killer Aliens?!?!

Anyone watching this crap...?

I can't stop LOL. But some of this is pretty annoying.

I don't but how is that show , i am a "Fatal attraction's" Fanatic though lol.

its got some true facts but a lot it is just snake and reptile hatred.

Yeah thats a great show

Honestly, animal planet drives me nuts now. It's nothing but shocking cases to make people afraid of animals or just plain old 'reality' tv... I like documentaries and shows teaching all the COOL STUFF about the animals I love! Not just things to shock the public! Just seems like they've fallen, relying on lame tricks to hook viewers. Plus they tried to trick a friend of mine into being on one of their shows--he runs a snake rescue/is a private breeder. He has fewer snakes than most people here! They asked to see footage of his snakes crawling around the house...as well as to film dirty cages before he cleans so they could 'watch the cleaning process'..:rofl: that's when they finally told them they were from Animal Hoarders! Suffice it to say, he decided he wasn't interested in being on their show anymore, LOL! :rolleyes: Now, I fully believe most of the people they get on that show are legit, but they do some tricks of their own to make things seem much worse. It IS tv after all!

I stopped watching Animal Planet too :(. Its such a shame that they are feeding off of peoples fears in stead of curiosity and education. Where's Steve Irwin when we need him :tears:.

I like Nat Geo and Nat Geo Wild. They have some good shows. Except "My Life is a Zoo". I've watched it a few times and...I'll just say its not for me and leave it at that :(.

Can't agree more with you animal planet changed a lot over the years. But NetGeo Wild is awesome just found out about it and its one of the coolest animal channels.

I LOVE Nat Geo wild!! :) Even on shows like Snake Hunters, it's done in a way that is educational and not so...biased in fear. The guys actually love snakes, lol!

Thats awful!! Its just sad what producers do to make "good" tv.

My life is a Zoo isn't so bad I watch it with my girlfriend, pretty insane how many animals they have and interact with. Most real City Zoo's I've been to have a lot less animals.

I've just seen them do things that were ummm... not done right, I guess thats the best way to describe it.
