TLC/Discovery Channel
Educational channels whip ass!

I started watching TLC a lot when I was unemployed in November. I like the medical shows.

I'm also a big fan of Court TV, particularly "Homicide" and "The System."

I've always been a fan of PBS, but since Rho and I moved to Philadelphia, we've become more engrossed in it. We have 4 PBS channels on our cable system here in the city, but the one that takes the cake is WYBE, Channel 35. They don't show the traditional PBS shows, but it is probably the most diverse television station I have ever seen. They show a lot of international stuff--BBC News, Greek shows, Korean shows, Indian music, local stuff. Very very cool.

Some of the colleges here also have public access channels on our cable system, one of which is Drexel University's DUTV. They show some really out there stuff.

(Side note for the moment: For the first time in a week, I can see the bottom of my sink. Rho and I were rather lazy this week and hadn't run the dishwasher in 3 days.)
