Discovery Home & Leisure

Pros: Induces SuperCraftyWoman syndrome
Cons: Where do I put all this stuff?

I am the most un-domestic person that ever walked the face of the earth. I'm sure of it. I hate cleaning, I hate cooking, I hate the laundry. But the thing I'm probably the worst at is anything craft related. I Crazy Glue buttons on, and tape hems....

Pros: New ideas every day.
Cons: none

Just a couple of months ago, I picked up a great show that the Discovery Channel has been airing for some time. It's the Christopher Lowell show.

First off, I would like to say this guy is so fun to watch. Overlooking the fact that his...

Pros: great ideas for your home
Cons: shows the same shows over and over

I keep the channel locked on the Discovery channel from 11 am until 4 pm every monday thru friday. I love their Home improvement shows such as "The New Christopher Lowell Show" which use to be called "Interior Motives" in past...

Pros: Great programming
Cons: To many repeats...want something new every day!

If it weren't for Discovery Daytime, I wouldn't turn the television on at all during the day. Except for "Wishbone" and "Zoom" on PBS, the television is full of drivel unfit for any man or beast!

My favorite show is...

Pros: Christopher Lowell!!
Cons: Lynette Jennings!!!

I admit that I'm an HGTV junkie...but there are a couple times a day when I change the channel to Discovery.... that's when the Christopher Lowell show is on!

I absolutely LOVE his shows!!!!! He comes up with the cutest and easiest home...

Pros: My television has an "off" button.
Cons: Everything from start to finish.

The Christopher Lowell Show deserves neither the attention nor the praise that it has received in its two seasons. I have watched the show many times. Why, you might ask, would I watch a show that I despise? The answer is that it is so bad I watch it...

Pros: everything
Cons: show is too short

I must admit that now this is one of the only shows on home decorating that I watch on the Discovery Channel.

I started watching it when it first started and now that is has changed its name its no different....still a great show.
This...

Pros: Great Informational Programming
Cons: not very many shows

I have always loved to watch home improvement shows and was thrilled when I found that my digital service had Discovery Home and Leisure. You can watch old Christopher Lowell (Interior Motives) shows twice a day and Lynette Jennings and Gimmee Shelter...

Pros: Great fun & Learn too!
Cons: Absolutely None

Starting with Home Matters at 10am (depending on your location), the marathon of home improvement programs is on! Home Matters is low-key and demonstrates "how to" projects from simple recipes to building storage shelves for your garage. It's...

Pros: very informative
Cons: none

If you are looking to remodel your house or you are wanting to cook a fantastic meal for some friends or you are just looking to decorate you home then you have found the perfect channel. This channel has a variety of different shows that can help...

Pros: Many items are of interest to D.I.Y. enthusiasts and the designs are available to download.
Cons: Many programs give Fast Forward during parts such as sawing and planing wood.

Regrettably I find the camera work on many home and Leisure programs leaves much to be desired. Odd angle are irritating and, when trying to follow and D.I.Y. project, the cameraman seems to think it is more important to view the presenters face than to see the work he/she is doing.

Bring back the New Yankee Workshop and get rid of the amateurs, PLEASE!
