Anyone watch that show? I think it's pretty entertaining. It's based in my town and it's cool to recognize the places he goes to. He's kind of a wierd guy (the way he dresses) but I like the show.

I remember he first got his start by doing a few episodes on Dirty Jobs. He went in this family's trailer that literally had hundreds of thousands of roaches. I was so embarassed.

After Dirty Jobs he had another show that was on discover, I think. It was called something else though.

Thank God is wasn't. It was some fat lady and her daughter.

They try to make it seem like this is a backwoods town but it's really not that bad. He caught two huge rattlesnakes in different businesses in town. I've never even seen one in my life.

Every town seems to have it's condemned home. Some nasty crap goes on behind the doors of some homes.

I remember a family I actually went in when I was kid hanging with the son, I came out flea infested. Miserable cats everywhere and a dog. I had to strip down in the garage and run in to my house naked. There was no door connecting garage to house, so I literally ran around outside to the front door. :laugh2:

I saw part of an episode the other day. No one in his family is too crazy about his brother's ex-wife. Or are they back together? No idea how it turned out. He was killing a bee hive and wore the strangest outfit to kill the bees I have ever seen.

That wasn't his brother's wife he just called her that. They seperated and the family put out and ad in the paper for him. They had about 5 girls show up and he chose one and went out on a date - which he bombed.

I saw that episode. That was a strange outfit. His latest show was killing a bunch of wasps. I hate those things. One of them stung me on the back of the neck last summer and the pain intensified for about 20 seconds and didn't go away for a few minutes.

Actually, the show on Discovery is Verminators, which was not him.

His show on A&E was called something else and was not just named after him, but about the whole group of people. I guess he got more "play" since he's the standout of the group and they went with a show for just him.

I knew it was either Discovery or A&E.

Ohhh, yea! Benton, LA, practically the Venice of N.W. Louisiana.

I mean, if you close your eyes while standing on Main St downtown, you'd think you were in NY NY!

They're in Benton but most of their work is in Shreveport (where I live) and Bossier City (across the river).
