I've been dealing with that same problem my whole life, & sometimes wonder how I live with myself....

Hoarders. Also:
Animal Cops- animal patrol going to the homes of people who abuse and/or neglect their cats&dogs. Despicable people.

Intervention-people with addictions. Some sick stuff here. A guy was so alcoholic, he had 3 seizures within a week and on the third, ended up in a hospital. He was stabilized, but decided to then take a cup, put in Purell Hand Sanitizer, and drank the sanitizer cause it has alcohol in it.

     Any show, a'la Jerry Springer and such, where people air their personal dirty laundry for the dubious distinction of "bein' on TELLABISHION!!!"

     Even moreso, those who would watch such shows; I just don't get it.
If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

There were a couple that just made me wonder what the hell they were on.

FISH POLICE, 1992 CBS
Weird animated show that lasted 6 episodes.  Based on a comic book, but why did they bring it to tv?

COP ROCK, 1990
Enough people know about this bizarre concept, I think. :)

As I understand it, they wanted an adult cartoon because the Simpsons had been successful.

ER

Just about any episode of Cops.

My Strange Addiction can be pretty disturbing and unsettling to watch at times. Stuff like people licking cats, eating toilet paper or detergent. Yeah, it's just f&*ked up.

I also find Hoarders very tough to watch especially when they find dead animals in the houses. How horrendous!

Hands down I would nominate I SURVIVED on the Bio Channel. Some absolutely amazing stories about people who went thru hell and back. Whenever I think I have it bad, I watch this show and it really puts things into perspective.

You and me both, man. It's the SAME thing, every time. This one cheated on this one, this one slept with this one, and it's about THE most worthless occupation of TV airtime ever. It's so scripted...
