I've been a Larry the Cable Guy fan for years. I first heard him when he did a weekly call-in segment on a local rock radio station. He says even now that 98 Rock helped to launch his career. Tom and I have seen him twice live at the First Mariner Arena in Baltimore.
A few weeks ago, Larry came on the 98 Rock Morning Show to promote his new show on the History Channel: Only in America with Larry the Cable Guy. I expected it might be amusing to watch a time or two. We added it to our weekly DVR recording schedule. I didn't expect I'd likely watch more than a couple of shows.
Boy howdy! I haven't enjoyed a show this much in years. There hasn't been a segment that has not only been funny, but *interesting*. I've learned TONS of stuff about the neatest things. Watching Larry going to the home of the family of the Emily Post to learn about etiquette? I was in tears laughing at his antics. And they get one over on HIM during the rodeo segment.
If you're looking for something to watch on TV that will bring a smile to your face and maybe let you forget some of the ugly of the world out there for a time, you really need to check out this show. It airs on Tuesday nights on the History Channel.
