I wonder if it'll sound like that zora practicing in Majora's Mask...
I have to say I'd like to see this too. It would be nice to see the LEARNING channel get back to actual education. Discovery needs to get back to educational stuff too. Sheesh, they managed to make 50billion spinoff channels simply from the popularity they had when they DID just have the educational stuff, then they have to spoil it all by doing something stupid like frickin' REALITY SHOWS! I HATE that Jesse Ventura build shop, AND all those TLC things. It was fine when they had ONE of those shows, Junkyard Wars, but I knew something was up when they made Robotica. It then flew out of control from there. Junkyard Wars at least let you in on all the science behind the projects and almost never had that idiotic "Human element" these reality shows are known for, but all these new shows, like the Jesse thing, have nothing but gossipy "can you believe he said that?" stuff going on.
I just hope this show isn't like Animal Planet's "The most EXTREME" show, which often is completely inaccurate on top of putting the WORST animals in the top spot. Some insect or arachnid or bug of some kind always seems to end up winning those things, when it's OBVIOUS that the animal that should win a most extreme builder award isn't a frickin' termite, no matter how large the building is "to scale", it's humans! Well, I gave up on Animal Planet a long time ago anyway (about the only people on that channel who seems to know anything about animals are the nature show hosts now), and REALLY got upset when the pet psychic show started. Oh, and the day I happened to catch a glimpse of an episode of the pet psychic with special guest Jon Edwards.... ugh....

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
