Wonder if it’ll be as good as “High Hitler,” the documentary about how Hitler was tripping balls for most of the war thanks to his personal physician. ---

We should at least note that this is a step up from _Mermaid, the Body Found_. We know that Hitler was alive at some time! ---

I understand this thread was derailed a bit, but . . . I caught some of this over the weekend. My God it was just plain dumb! Melodramatic, full of conjecture and fiction masquerading as analysis or real history. Here is my question. Do you think these people actually believe the total crap they are spewing, or are they just riding this horse as long as it get ratings and they get paychecks? I mean, I understand that true believers can go off the rails, but this is way, way out there. ---

I mean, I understand that true believers can go off the rails, but this is way, way out there. I can imagine the brainstorming session that resulted in this dreck: \*Okay, we need a new series for this season… So, we already have UFOs, ancient aliens, rednecks and other “reality” shows, that douchebag who goes around the country looking for runestones and other imaginary crap… What else can we come up with that’s lowest-common-denominator enough to bring in ratings? Uhhhhh … Hitler? Yes! A blend of the old and the new, takes us back to our roots. Perfect!\* ---

I think you meant to say, “There are psychos shouting ‘There’s Hitler!’ at shadows all over these woods; You can hear them prowling around at night.” If each of us had a brick for every pointless thread with “Hitler” in the title over the past two years, we could all have had new brick patios… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hunting-hitler-on-the-history-channel/734862.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hunting-hitler-on-the-history-channel/734862.md?page=3)
