I just heard we are going to have to endure Kate Gossilin again. That ship has sailed. Move on to something worth while. Kates 15 minutes have passed. What kind of statement do you make to people who are struggling in these times, when she get a free $7000. hair do. Come on add some heart warming things to your station.

Too much with the Christian agenda. John and Kate should go, horrible. Another example of a bad marrage Roloffs. What a juxtaposition to the advertising for shows that contain disasters, murders, destruction.
Do you have an adjenda?

I ENJOY WATCHING MANY OF THE PROGRAMS ON DISCOVERY & TLC, BUT WATCHED A BAR-B-Q PITMASTERS COOKOFF AT MESQUITE, NEVADA LAST NIGHT AND COULD HARDLY STAND ALL OF THE "F" WORDS THROWN ABOUT BY THE CONTESTANTS, MAINLY MYRON NIXON. A SHOW LIKE THIS IS NO PLACE FOR THAT LANGUAGE. SURE, IT WAS BLEEPED OUT, BUT YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE AN IDIOT TO NOT KNOW WHAT WAS SAID.

I watched the first season of jon and kate + 8. It was interesting to see how one would cope with having six babies at one time. Now it is a travisty. I beg you to please stop being a partner in the exploitation of these children. It is so disgusting. It is criminal to particapate in such a blatant quest for money. It sickens me. Please stop!

August 4, 2009 -- Discovery Communications, Inc. today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009.

David Zaslav, Discovery's President and Chief Executive Officer, said "Discovery's second quarter results demonstrate our ability to execute on our business plan and strategic initiatives in a difficult operating environment.

We delivered 12% ratings growth across our domestic networks and increased international subscribers 11% while offsetting our continued investment in programming with reductions to the selling, general and administrative cost base. The result was demonstrable operating leverage, with Adjusted OIBDA growth of 13% despite the challenging economy and adverse foreign currency fluctuations. At the same time, we took several strategic steps to better position the Company including partnering with Hasbro on a new children's venture and monetizing an underutilized part of our valuable distribution platform. We also considerably strengthened our balance sheet, paying down $772 million in debt and reducing our leverage to 2.5 times, providing us additional financial flexibility. While the operating environment remains uncertain, with a strengthened balance sheet, operational momentum and sustained operating leverage, we expect to continue to deliver on our commitments to shareholders in the second half of 2009."

Second quarter revenues of $881 million were down slightly compared with the second quarter a year ago as 2% growth at U.S. Networks was offset by a 5% decline at International Networks, primarily the result of a $34 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency fluctuations.

I would liek to know if TLC, and DIscovery communications are in a very sly manner taking and pushing a pro life stance as they show all these shows with multiple children, john and kate, the duggers, the roloffs are all Cristians. Nothing wrong with these people being Cristian, but the channel is somehow pushng a pro life slant in the guise of endearing entertainment. kind of slick and creepy!
