SmashLAB: Discovery Channel, Please Stop Sucking!

[Tuckerfan]

Its not the TV show Smashlab saying this, but a Canadian company which has the same name (and no connection to the TV show).

Then along you came with your fucking awful television program with the same fucking name. Surely you researched this before airing the program. I can only suppose that you felt we were so small that you could just poach it. Fine enough–I guess that’s life.

The problem is that your program seems to suck. So now when someone does a Google search for “smashLAB”, they find endless posts about how badly “smash lab sucks”. Great. Now we suck by association, just because you lifted our name.

I wonder if they couldn’t pursue some kind of lawsuit the Discovery Channel, it no doubt wouldn’t get Discovery to suck less, but it might inform people that the two were not connected.

And they say “no publicity is bad publicity.”

Once again, “they” have their heads up their ass.

I’m surprised they didn’t protect their trademark but I’ve known a lot of people who are foolish in that regard. It isn’t “poaching” if they don’t register it, after all.
