Hazard Pay TV Show

"Holmes on Homes" is probably one of the best home inprovement shows around! He tells it like it is and fixes the messes left by fly-by-nighters or crooks in the business.
Canadian......of course

Should have made him body thrust from the bottom. Also, I think it would have been better had they shown the professionals doing actual work for a larger section of it. Limb walking is the coolest part, and there was a sevear lack of that IMO. O well, guess that just leaves it to us to show people how it is done right.
 
they pick morons that are dangoeus to make $ thatis hhat sells they think people out there dont want to see saftey in a show about danger jobs
 
One other note... Yea see him loading the chipper from the front and bout go head first into it. That sure would have made ratings. And on that note, sure woulda hurt like H*ll if he hit his head on the fead ramp, since he had no helmet on.
 
I watched it...was appauled..this show in my mind is a HUGE black eye to our industry.
The other show "Dirty Jobs" did one on tree trimming that was a bit more realistic and not so embarrassing
And what is with this craze about crab fishing...sure its crazy....but for only 3-5 days a year!?!?
come bust trees everyday!!!!
where is our reality show?
:)
peace
 
So, since its all down on tape, how about one, or several, anonymous BUZZes to a local enforcement authority?

Remember to purchase products from the companies that sponsor the programs, since without their sponsorship you wouldn't be able to view it. And call them up, too, and thank them handsomely for providing the stimulating entertainment.


"T is for TV. Get daddy's hammer and smash it open. Look inside and you will see all the cowboys and Yogi Bear and Shirley Temple and Huckleberry Hound and EVERYBODY! Wowee!"

I have to agree with Jim on the piont of hammer time to TV. I have a bud with a bummper sticker KILL YOUR TELEVSION well after one more industry showing how to do it, well hammer is gonna be 12 guage pump action at next BBQ.
The bad thing is that I have a client who watched the show and asked why alot about how I worked and theh groundies. In the end she has a new impression on what we really do and how we really do it.
As to Chris yeah I loved that part. Cutting away and lets the branch take the saw over and zipps a piece of his line. Yes to the chipper part that was a rating getter right there. Bad thing is we would have to talk about it in Awakenings!

Yea know, you would have thought the Discovery channel would have been smart enough to run that by the ISA or some other orginization and ask their opinion on the clip before airing it, and if they did... wonder who dropped the ball on that one.
 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA This is rediculous how many ppl saw on TLC I think it was Raw Deal something on that line. Well here we go again this time leave out the helmet same as above minusea helmet. Cant wait till next show we gonna be minuse a climber.
Fastlil I totally agreee with ya .

The funny thing is that a coulpe of people have actually stopped by to see us do work and say to us Yeah we have seen this work on Tv. All I do now is shake my head and just let the groundies take care of it.

Thanks to his colorfull expenations the people just look in Aw and sometimes we get more jobs.( think hes looking for a raise hmmm)
