Time Warp (Discovery Channel) has jumped the shark

[pokerfan]

Sure, it started out cool but now it's devolved into throwing food on the floor in slow motion? Hint to producers: Not everything filmed in super-slo-mo is cool.

1. Stuff being blown up/cut/shot/ect. in slow motion is always awesome though.

2. Not true.

A brief list:

Baby panda bears
A mother kangaroo w/ joey in pouch
The Dalai Lama

Actually, now that I think about it, pretty much anything non-animate and that hasn't ever lived IS pretty cool to shoot in slow motion, isn't it?

Things that would be awesome if blown up:
A bee hive
A bucket of water
A turducken
Phobos and/or Deimos
That bag of blood they give ER patients
All forms of transportation
Houses
Casinos

3. I think they've run out of ideas

and only in its second season. Lately it's turned into stupid human tricks filmed in slo-mo. Tonight they had competitive eating and using a pogo-stick to tenderize meat.
