Nature Host:

"Ah yes, the elusive Zombetula gora, otherwise known as the common stalking zombie, is a rather clever creature who will hide in plain-sight and wait for the typical minor character in a B-rated sci-fi or hapless cheerleader to wander across his path. The zombie will suddenly appear and eat the minor character when he is most distracted with the cheerleader's bra. Here, we see the brute in the process of devouring the brains of a divorce lawyer..."

Continuing the last post.

As you can see, he slowly consumes his prey, waiting for- *SNAP* Oh Bloody Hell! He has spotted us! Run!.....

Gasp* Thank god we got out of there in one piece, eh, Reginald?... Reginald?

*Zombified Reginald comes up behind the host and kills him, beginning to eat his brains. The camera man is soon the only one to survive in yet another anti-climactic zombie apocalypse story in which the person who survives wasn't even a necessary part of the story.

Thank you, NatGeo for this insight into the future (not).

Love how they're all for the Lowest Common Denominator theme programming, but couldn't be bothered to run ONE commemorative program on D-Day.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

I was a bit dissapointed with that as well, even the military channel didnt have much.

divorce lawyers?

of course they do. they convince one spouse that they can and should rake the other spouse over the coals, because they don't get along anymore. they also convince the spouse that they'll be rich.
 the spouse doesn't realize that the rich person that the divorce lawyer is talking about is himself.  :noid

On the opposite side of that...have you ever thought it might just be a Halloween weekend type of thing?

However I typically don't watch that channel anyway.

Hm up here, NatGeo had an entire day special on outer space... "Naked Science" - lots of episodes about possible life in space etc.

Though last week's Discovery Channel special on space was MUCH more in-depth.
