Will There Be Ducks on Mars in 150 Years?

I sometimes like to watch Discovery Channel-style documentaries about a wide variety of topics.  There are so many channels now that have this kind of programming.  I do think that they might be running out of ideas for shows though.  Some have really started to speculate.  About anything & everything.  The past, the present, and most especially the future.  I thought documentaries were supposed to present the facts.  Huh.  Here are some real examples:

Prehistoric America (prehistoric generally means before recorded history, so this is really a bunch of hooey)

Future Weapons

Unsolved History (lots of room for speculation for what might have happened)


I am thinking maybe I should help them by pitching them some possible new shows:

What if Hitler Had Won the War?

Did Jesus Like Fish?

Is This Piece of Polyester in China Really the Shroud of Turin?

If The Laughing Buddha Was So Obese, Did He Have High Cholesterol?

Will the Sun Suddenly Crash Into the Earth in 3,000 Years?

Uranus Unveiled in 2079 (my personal fave)
