I don't watch TV ordinarily but on a recent trip overseas I got a little bit hooked on the National Geographic Channel as they have some really cool, interesting and entertaining shows. Diggers is not one of them... On the plus side I guess the guys are VERY enthusiastic and they do visit some interesting locations. On the down side, the show is boringly monotonous and the endless 'Diggers jargon' soon grates like crazy as there is not much in their dictionary. How many times can a viewer possibly be expected to suffer phrases like 'I see round in the hole' in any 30 minute period, no matter how enthusiastically delivered? By the end of the first show I watched I was ready to smash the TV the next time I heard another one of the 'Diggers dictionary' phrases. The enthusiasm starts to grate too when the guys go off when they discover something 'awesome' - rolling on the ground, running through the forest or whatever. They remind me of 8 year old kids let loose from school for the first time in months... Oh and just about everything they seem to find is awesome. Hint: it usually isn't. This is a fine example of exactly why reality TV is killing the medium. Pure rubbish of the highest (or should that be lowest?) order.
