Dominic Monaghan Calls for Cancelation of Swamp People, Labels Show "Death Entertainment"
by Hilton Hater at .Dominic Monaghan is speaking out against Swamp People, and on behalf of animals everywhere.
The former Lost star, who labeled Matthew Fox a frequent woman beater in May, posted on Twitter a short while ago that the History Channel should put an end to its popular series ASAP.
Labeling the program as "death entertainment," Monaghan said Swamp People "continues to demonize reptiles as monsters and animals that are okay to torture and kill."
He added that "if alligator populations need to be controlled, I understand. But the act should not be glorified on TV" and concludes by pointing his finger squarely at the History Channel: "I blame the network, not the people."
What do YOU think? Should Swamp People get the axe?

regarding the swamp people show. Why can't those people catch the gators and take them to an alligator farm like the gator people do in Florida. Gators were here first and I understand you have to limit them but not that way. I agree with you Dominic
The Show Is Entertaining, And Should Continue To Be Aired, If People Can Not Stand To Watch The Show Change The Channel. Its A Way Of Life Where They Live And It Will Continue To Happen With Or Without The Show (Which My Wife And I Love). People Keep Buying Things Made From Alligator Skin So Someone Has To Fill The Demand...Why Not Put It On TV So People Can Choose Whether Or Not To Watch... Mr. D.M. Is Just After A Little Attention In My Opinion.
.. If I ever thought you were invvloed in something like this I'd cry, I'd be mad, I'd me mortified, and you would have to pack a bag and leave the country for awhile for your own safety. Have respect for the law but fear your Mother! He rolled his eyes and said as if I would be like that Mom! He had me there .darn kids are smart. Anyways..I love your work. I too am a fellow shooter, just starting out. Thanks for the lovely work that fills the world with brightness. And thank you for being a special Mom!
I love animals and donate to various organizations. I also hunt. Hunting is far more humane than farming animals. Check out PETA and WSPA if you want to learn the truth about the source of your food, leather couch, and wool coat. That being said, I believe this mind numbing form of entertainment is useless.
It's too bad History channel has to resort to this show for ratings. So many other good shows on their channel. It's a reality obviously, but what kind of mindless idiot wants to watch a bunch of mindless rednecks with grade two educations slaughter alligators?? "Prime time good times round the ol' picture box and next to ma' coal stove.. Pass the popcorn Ma!" I agree it should be cancelled and as a viewer of History's more informative and entertaining programs, am offended by the commercials. Not that any of the swamp people, or it's producers... or viewers would understand the fact that this leads to loss of viewers not even watching this idiocy. S'called a domino affect ya beatnick. Go back to school. Better yet.... Don't bother.
