Just got it a month ago. Nothing but re runs, re runs and more re runs. I am so disappointed.

I havent seen any original content in months....get used to it.

At least they stopped playing SuperCarrier but now they play Hitlers Bodyguard non-stop or top ten that make no sense.

They show those "Top Ten" shows non-stop.

I don't think they have Billy Mays commercials, though.

+1

It's almost like they pick their favorite ones then try to fit them into the order they want. When they announce #1 its always a WTF? moment.

It was good for a while, but it blows now.

Besides the history they could be making shows about, we have two wars going on.

There should be new content weekly. The possibilities seem endless.

Yup, about a month of watching at my old TV rate. Months later I merely browse and there is nothing new. Those hosts are pretty funny though.

When I first got it a couple years ago it was awesome. Now I never turn it on because of all the damn re-runs.

About every 2 or 3 months they run the 10 part WWI documentary that is excellent. I forget what it is called, but it is the easily the best history program I have ever seen on TV.

The Military channel has to be watched in cycles.

I wish they would rerun the original Wings series.

Part of the problem is that there's only so much military history that's documented in a visual format for TV.

There's a lot of military history that's been written down, when The Military Channel keeps rerunning the shows with that queerbait transgendered Aryeh Nusbacher I shut off the TV and go read a military history book.

The Weaponology-type "top 10" shows were idiotic, but the other ones they had recently (Tanks, Fighters, Bombers, Weapons) were pretty cool. The vids of the restored Vulcan bomber in flight was alone worth the price of admission.

I don't know what kind of crack they smoke to come up with those ratings.
It has to be high quality stuff.

Top ten tanks come on soon. I wonder which one they will pick.

It's not the M1.
