    you mean 'The Nostradamus Effect' isn't science?

    They neither refute nor deny those theories. Only present them. If that ain't science I don't know what is.

    btw, new episode of The Universe tonight: 10 ways to destroy the earth.

    telling ghost stories isn't science.

    Is it me, or does it seem like the History Channel is just getting it's ideas for shows off of far more interesting lists on Cracked.com?

    History is a very vague term seeing as everything has one.

    History channel is awesome. The Universe is awesome. The Nostradamus effect sucks though. So does Pawn Stars, and half the other stuff on there that isn't The Universe or Gangland.

    The Universe was good until it became another ZOMG DOOMSDAY! show. Modern marvels is ok. The rest of it is fucking shit that is either pseudo-science (nostradamus, UFO hunters, monster quest, etcetc) or shit that isn't about history (ice road truckers, etc)

    I hate Ice Road truckers/pawn stars/those type of shows. History channel really needs to cut that out. The UFO/Monsters/Nastradamus crap has been going on for years. Unfortunately, it's safe to say that those type of shows are permanent part of the history channel.

    New season of the Universe started a few weeks ago. I'm sure they'll deviate from the doomsday stuff soon enough. They've already went over every possible phenomenon multiple times. There's no way they can keep that up.

    The parallel universe episode was somewhat amusing to watch. What I really want is more Viking/Medieval/Greek stuff and less of these "8 hour Dan Brown conspiracy theory" marathons about freemasons and secret societies and how DaVinci encoded information about global warming into the FLOWING HAIR of his paintings. Because the fact that he made hair that complex must mean he was trying to encode some super secret information.

    The history channel should show the history of the history channel.
