Show Name: Wreckreation Nation

When and Where Does It Air?: Tuesdays at 10/9c on Discovery Channel (premieres January 6, 2009)

Genre: Reality

What’s It About?: Get off your butt and check out some of the nation’s most unique and outrageous hobbies. Each week on “Wreckreation Nation,” host Dave Mordal will travel around the country and partake in one hobby. Sample pastimes include lawn mower racing, pumpkin hurling, and “chessboxing” (chess with a little boxing thrown in).

Who’s In It?:

  • Dave Mordal (”Last Comic Standing”) as Himself

Who’s Behind It?:

  • No Information Available

Why Should I Watch It?:

  • The concept sounds pretty fun. I’m sure America has a ton of odd but awesome pastimes to showcase. I’m already looking forward to the episode on chessboxing.
  • Dave Mordal was one of the funniest comics “Last Comic Standing” has ever had and he seems like a perfect choice for this show. He’ll more than likely make a good concept even better.

Why Should I Skip It?:

  • Obviously if you don’t already like Discovery Channel programming, “Wreckreation Nation” isn’t going to change your mind.

Conclusion: I’m definitely watching at least one episode of this show. I would be surprised if I didn’t enjoy it and who knows, maybe I’ll even find a new hobby.

Clips: I couldn’t embed any clips but you can find a few on Discovery Channel’s website.
