Man vs. WIld

We try not to watch too much tv but you know sometimes it just gets turned on and then stays on and then someone (or more than one) ends up sitting down to "chill". We have satellite and have blocks on everything rated above PG and lots of channels completely blocked - just no sense in even knowing things like MTV exist as far as we are concerned. We talk occassionally about throwing the whole tube out the window but then somehow we don't (yeah, weak). Anyway, we have a found a tv show that everyone in the family watches and enjoys and is (somewhat) educational. Man vs. Wild. Seen it? If not, check it out. My 5yo knows how to use his shoelaces for at least 20 different things (not related to his shoe!) and my 8yo knows how to get out of quicksand. I like it because as we are watching and afterward we all talk about it and do "what if's" and "wasn't that cool's" and "maybe someday's" - together.
And so far we haven't had to beep out his language or innuendos which is our big reason for not watching "Dirty Jobs" anymore. Oh - and we all really enjoy "How It's Made", too. My children loved the one about how escalator rails were made!
