I remember watching Bill Maher on Jay Leno when Adam Richman was the guest

[CatWoman]

and Bill's complete hostility towards him.

Adam is the star of The Travel Channel's "Man Versus Food".

I just hate that show, and knowing Bill's disdain for people who eat a lot of junk and restaurants that cater to people who eat said junk, I well understood Bill's hostility.

I mean who wants to watch a show in which a man travels around the country to see how much slop he can cram down his throat?

That show, IMHO, is just another type of program that promotes the dumbing down of America.

It seems all the channels are following suit. The History Channel, The Learning Channel, The Travel Channel -- all used to have great shows.

Now their lineups are full of crap that for the most part, only idiots want to watch (here I must exclude Anthony Bourdain's show from The Travel Channel's lineup).

"Reality" TV is going to be the death of this country.
