    My husband got me and my kids hooked on this show. It's funny because he's so blunt about the job and he gets awfully dirty.
    I wonder if the people he works for 'makes up' jobs or if what he is doing is an actual job.

    I also like the tag line that goes with it...

    In a World that Glamorizes Beauty, there is Mike or something like that

    Dirty Jobs can be seen Tuesdays on The Discovery Channel at 9pm Eastern

    Dirty Jobs Rocks! :D That, along with Mythbusters, are two of my all-time fave cable shows. Does anyone know if it's really true that Mike Rowe used to sing opera? I know he's an excellent singer, he has done it alot on the show, but I wondered if the opera thingie was true, or just an urban myth... (D'uh, I guess I could look it up... :rolleyes: )

    Mike Rowe is just too funny. Honestly, it's hard to see anyone else hosting that show. He handles himself with such grace, even when it appears things might not be going to plan. And according to behind the scenes clips and specials, a lot of things tend to go wrong!

    He's a pyrotechnition. :devil:(try saying that 5 times fast) :lol:
    He comes home most nights looking like the tin man, so his job is pretty dirty. :eek:
    Blowing up stuff for a living,all day every day, isn't exactly clean...
