OT: absolutely tickled *pink* to see Mike Rowe back on TV!

[palerider]

for those fans of Mike Rowe, late of Dirty Jobs fame, and were saddened when the show was cancelled.

GOOD NEWS!

if you haven't heard, he's BACK!

on CNN, of all places, with his new (resurrected?) show, "Somebody's Gotta Do It".

I read last night that he'd had a local tv show by that name on KPIX SF, and discovery channel saw it, and liked it, but only wanted the 'dirty' jobs part... now, CNN is letting him go back to his roots of not just dirty jobs, but jobs that somebody's gotta do... as it were

I'm a fan of Mike Rowe. Nice find. CNN also added Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown. If the network is not careful they'll be relevant again.

or, at least, worth watching some of their shows.

Some of his better QVC moments are on Youtube.

I'll have to check it out! He was fun to watch, all unscripted and all.

I also liked Andrew Zimmern's Bizarre Foods, otherwise known as
"I dare you to eat that".
