Changian Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Tune into True Channel 18 to see what must be the most boring reality show ever. A live cam inside the cage of Lin Ping, Thailand's panda cub. Right now it is either sleeping or dead. Hard to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 This is a subtle ploy by the shows producers to increase the ratings, it must be working 'coz the number of viewers doubled in the last minute (I tuned in). There is a bit of string moving in the shot to show it's not a still image EDIT It does indeed look rather dead EDIT 2 For those who really need their fix, more panda cams here http://thai-panda.blogspot.com/2009/08/lin...ngth-63-cm.html the one in San Diego Zoo actually moves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t unrest what big stupid (used a nicer world than I wanted to use) thing with this things.

metisdead Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Yea, all this hype with this panda is enough to like totally gag me with a drill stem! On one of the Thai news channels in the mornings (I don't watch it, the wife is watching it on her tv), I hear this most pukingly sound to coincide with this dear panda's adventures. Uh oh! I'm out of drill stem, may have to gag myself with a spoon instead!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapout Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Its right up there with the program??? that showed the young people sleeping, brushing teeth, etc. Maybe this is the training program for new hire camera men and program directors.

It won't be if he spikes himself on a swinging gate and ends up as dead as a door nail. It'll become international news footage.

IanForbes Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Are "ANY" of the pandas alive? Maybe they are ALL just stuffed toys. At least my lady is a little more lively... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumfoord Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 after playing few rounds of the online game 'hold the Button' at http://www.holdthebutton.com/ is watching the panda channel a welcome change in pace.

Changian Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) Pandaphants - the cuteness of a panda combined with the Thainess of an elephant. How could it fail to impress visitors? Edited November 5, 2009 by Changian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunDave Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Have to confess, when I first heard about this Panda I thought "why did they name it after a supermarket" (Rimping) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiang mai Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 How sad is that, a bunch of people come to Thailand and end up watching panda's on TV and complaining about how boring it is - the term, "get a life" doesn't even begin to do justice.

Do I detect a bit on envy that some of us have Truevisions satellite whilst you don't? If you want a DVD of the highlights - let me know. You're missing Linping having breakfast right now. Looks like it's having Khao Tom this morning washed down with green Fanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridian007 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Better this than the Thai dramas... At least your partners aren't learning socially defective behaviour from watching the Panda (except excessive sleeping!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anothertorres Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 i just want to bump this thread because i've come to the conclusion that the Panda Channel is the only channel worth watching. they sure are a big bag of silly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Truely astonishing garbage!!! Unbelievably, it's very popular.........isn't that supposed to tell us something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anothertorres Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 well, i'm appalled. how on earth can anyone look at a couple of fat pandas woofin down food and chewing on tires as "astonishing garbage". you my friend are way to angry at the world to be posting on the internets. anf frankly, life is way to short to be hatin on the panda. besides, it's like staring at a campfire. i just can't look away. i've also been on mescaline all day so. whatever, pandas are cool as shit, end of story.

RoastLamb Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 What's the reality tv show on the channel called LIVE in the top left and 2 TANGO in the top right? Seems like some kind of pop star training acadamy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mca Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 There's a really deep dark nasty part of my heart that hopes to turn on the Panda Channel and see a team of vets frantically trying to resuscitate it. I think it stems from there's been more new coverage dedicated to that frigging animal than there was about the families of the victims of Tak Bai seeking justice etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changian Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 I dont recall any cute pandas being killed in Tak Bai. Only Muslims. Hence the level of media coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
