Does "Dirty Jobs" seem different to you?

collieluv28 @collieluv28 (388) • United States 20 Nov 08

Maybe it's just me but it seems that "Dirty Jobs" is a bit different. I can't put my finger on it but it's not as appealing to me as it once was. Maybe Mike Rowe is getting tired of the show. The jobs are still interesting,...
