Gentle and affable...
26 April 2011
"Only in America with Larry the Cable Guy" is a show currently being shown on the History Channel--having debuted couple months ago. Each episode consists of Larry visiting various jobs throughout the USA where he learns about the job and then tries it out for himself. In style, it's very much like Mike Rowe's "Dirty Jobs" but the emphasis is much more on Larry's gentle humor and rarely is meant to be gross or harrowing. Instead, it showcases interesting jobs and lets Larry interview them and pokes very gentle fun at them and himself. I frankly think the show works because of Larry's nice personality, as many of the jobs he highlights aren't all that interesting--but he and his staff manage to bring it to life. Well worth seeing--and one of the more interesting reality shows currently on TV.
