Dirty Jobs;A show about manual labor, blood, sweat, and poo is a hard sell to a family network

About Me

This is a site for all Mike Rowe and Dirty Job fans! Mike has become a very popular and successful man since the premier of Dirty Jobs. He has captured the eyes of people from all over, due to his unthinkable quest to perform alogside workers whose jobs that you could define as gross, nasty and of course DIRTY. Mike Rowe you could say, is definatly t.v. eye candy and his sarcastic and comedic personality can suck you in wanting to watch more of Mike and Dirty Jobs. “I'm a B-list celebrity trying to give it an honest look. They see me do actual work. ... I try to be the viewer with a microphone.”It was during his service project for Eagle Scout at the Maryland School for the Blind that he read aloud for the first time, which he cites as one of the reasons he became interested in narrating.He went to Overlea High School, then attended Towson University in Baltimore County, Maryland. Rowe currently lives in San Francisco, California.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Hardworking peopleDirty Jobs is a program on theDiscovery Channel where host Mike Rowe is shown performingdifficult and/or messy occupational duties alongsideprofessional workers. The show premiered with three pilotepisodes in November 2003. The show returned as a serieson July 26, 2005.The appeal of the show is the juxtaposition of Mike Rowe,a well-spoken man of television with a sharp, sarcastic,self-deprecating wit, the hellacious (or hilarious) blue-collar situations in which he's put, and the colorful (andsurprisingly easygoing) personalities of the men and womenwho actually do that job for a living.
