It seems the biggest trend in TV is people tuning to watch ordinary people doing mundane jobs - Pawn Stars, Operation Repo, Dirty Jobs, American Chopper. It’s a trend I’ve never understood. The only show like this that seems slightly interesting is Ice Road Truckers, partly because of the coolness factor of driving trucks on ice, and partly because of Lisa.
Actually for 35% of Americans who don’t work and have no plans to do so it’s a chance for them to see what employment looks like.
