		<description><![CDATA[He's like the A-Rod of bullshit television. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all assumed it, but now we know that filming rednecks doing stuff is incredibly lucrative. Discovery Communications (Discovery Channel, <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/tlc-735/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>TLC</a>, <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/animal-planet/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Animal Planet</a>, and 25 other channels) CEO David Zaslav while increasing the company&#8217;s stock value by over 50%, made $49 million in 2012, which was remarkably slightly down from his 2011 take of $52.4 million in 2011, but up slightly from his 2010 take of $42.6 million.</p>
<p>Fuck me, that kind of money can buy a lot of shows about <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/mustaches/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>mustaches</a> and people who systematically kill birds.</p>
<p>Perhaps he will use this crazy influx of cash to smooth out his jaw-dimples, or maybe he&#8217;ll just make some more shows. May I suggest:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Oatmeal Bandits</em> (exactly what it sounds like)</li>
<li><em>FoxPunchers USA</em> (ditto)</li>
<li><em>Car Crushers</em> (show about people who get paid to damage <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/used-cars-215/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>used cars</a> with bats for some reason)</li>
<li><em>Seven Dicks</em> (show about 5 men and 2 women, all named Dick, who live in a trailer park outside of Gainesville)</li>
<li><em>Clown College Dropouts</em> (a show that follows five people who failed out of clown college as they get a second chance at a career, working as executives in the Department of <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/homeland/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Homeland</a> Security)</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;You see this cannonball? This one that ended up in my yard? I&#8217;m keeping it! You&#8217;re not getting it back, <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/shows/mythbusters' target='_blank'>Mythbusters</a>!&#8221;</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/tv-news/the-president-of-the-united-states-of-america-barack-obama-to-appear-on-mythbusters/" target="_blank">Mythbusters</a>, that precocious gang of youths with the <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/creepy/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>creepy</a> facial hair and the <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/tv-photos/mythbusters-kari-lubes-it-up/" target="_blank">one girl that everyone thinks is really hot by default</a>, recently had an accident while firing a cannonball at the Alameda firing range in <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/california/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>California</a>. According to the Sheriff&#8217;s Department, the ball took &#8220;a few unfortunate bounces,&#8221; crashing into a nearby house, entering through one wall, and exiting through another.</p>
<p>The absolute best line from the <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2011/12/07/mythbusters-cannonball-hits-house/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">AOLTV</a> article?</p>
<p>&#8220;The San Francisco Chronicle said &#8216;cantaloupe-sized cannonball&#8217; damaged the home and minivan of the Gill <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/family/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>family</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Gill family minivan was damaged? At what price busted myths, <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/mythbusters-458/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Mythbusters</a>? AT WHAT PRICE BUSTED MYTHS?</p>
<p>Mythbusters screwed over the Gill family of Dublin, California?</p>
<p>CONFIRMED.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/andy-samberg-is-now-in-charge-of-shark-week-on-discovery-channel/" target="_blank">Shark Week again on the Discovery Channel</a>. In honor of the momentous occasion, we&#8217;ve decided to take a look at some of the weakest <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/sharks/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>sharks</a> to ever appear on the small screen. <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/shark-week/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Shark Week</a>, <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/video/comic-con-2011-hot-girl-rides-mechanical-shark/" target="_blank">weak sharks</a>: get it? Yeah you love it.</p>
<p>At any rate, here&#8217;s a look at the weakest, most pathetic sharks we could find.</p>
<h4>The Dharma Shark (Ezra James Sharkington) &#8211; <em>Lost</em></h4>
<p align="CENTER"><object width="450" height="286" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/o-zYeqKSVkk?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed width="450" height="286" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/o-zYeqKSVkk?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" allowFullScreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" /></object></p>
<p>The Dharma Shark, which was jokingly named Ezra James Sharkington, is pretty much just a normal shark, save for the fact that the &#8220;Dharma&#8221; logo is imprinted on its back. Nothing is less bad-ass than corporate sponsorship.</p>

Is the woman in the back right Adam&#039;s mom?
President Barack Obama has found some time in his busy schedule of running the Free World to offer up a brief appearance on &#34;Mythbusters.&#34; On the episode which airs December 8th, &#34;Obama challenges hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman to prove the ancient Greek myth that scientist and polymath Archimedes set fire to an invading Roman fleet using only mirrors and the reflected rays of the sun.&#34;
As any avid &#34;Mythbusters&#34; fan knows, they are revisiting this myth for a second go, as I&#039;m sure they were trolled the first time around on the show&#039;s message board. Obama most likely led the flame war so he could get Adam and Jamie to design a new weapons defense system on Discovery Channel&#039;s dime. ...Suckers. (Deadline)
