    Has Animal Planet effectively burned its bridges?

    You know an Animal Planet program has to be truly bad when even Robert Reed of the USGS constrictor report criticizes it:

    I haven't watched the channel since a year after Steve Irwin died. It just became unwatchable at that point.

    I agree, lets all email Jeremy Wade and tell him to switch to another network.

    The only thing I watch on Animal Planet reruns of The Crocodile Hunter, I caught one this morning

    Oh yeah and I do like the Cats and Dog 101 stuff. Other than that though the rest of the shows are unwatchable to me.
