…or is TLC (the life channel) quickly turning into TTC (the trash channel?) with “old enemies returning” to L.A. Ink, American Chopper’s Junior and Senior forcing you to choose “whose side are you on?” and now, for the love of cheese, a new show called Sister Wives exposing life inside a polygamous household.
