For those who don't know, the wild-haired jackass is an 'expert' who appears on the History Channel describing how all sorts of ancient events were done/sponsored by/ordered by aliens. He is to actual history what Dane Cook is to actual comedy.

God, I loved watching the couple of episodes of the Ancient Aliens show, if only so I could snicker derisively. Oh, the arrogance, to believe that people from ancient non-Grecian cultures could actually fathom laws of algebra, geometry and physics. Did that dude ever accuse Pythagorus of being an alien, I wonder?

I think I want to punch everyone at that channel who makes programming and production decisions. The whole fucking channel is rife with bias, which is never a good thing when it comes to journalism and studies of history.

But it's all about what the American public "wants," right?
