Guntucky -- Laugh or cry?
Guntucky -- Laugh or cry?
New series starting April 21 on CMT about guns in Kentucky. The web site is: http://www.cmt.com/show/guntucky/series.jhtml
I'm afraid that it's going to be more hillbilly/hicksville than I would like to see. On the other hand, the cast is the ownership of the Knob Creek Gun Range near West Point -- a place that many of us admire. Looks like most of the episodes will be filmed there too.
Being the optimist, I'll probably catch the first episode or two & see how it goes. Hope it isn't too similar to Orange County Choppers (which, for me, got real boring, real stupid, real quick).

I don't know many who 'admire' KCR or its staff. This has also already been posted. I think it was Cranky that posted it.

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Re: Guntucky -- Laugh or cry?
I have no urge to watch this, nor do I admire any of the staff at KCR. Unless there is some kind of firearms miracle, this show will only make the firearms owners of Kentucky look like a bunch of dumb crazy rednecks.

I can tell you that Kenny Sumners is not a dumb redneck.DDgunslinger wrote:I have no urge to watch this, nor do I admire any of the staff at KCR. Unless there is some kind of firearms miracle, this show will only make the firearms owners of Kentucky look like a bunch of dumb crazy rednecks.
How the show is I would guess that yeah KGR will look like a bunch of rednecks.
But it is on CMT which is a redneck station.

The script for these type of shows contain only one sentence made up of only two words "Act stupid"
One of the big reasons I give up on TV long time ago.

Re: Guntucky -- Laugh or cry?
I've known Kenny for at least 10yrs, probably closer to 15yrs. I never said he wasn't a good guy, nor did I say he himself was a dumb redneck.guncrank1 wrote:I can tell you that Kenny Sumners is not a dumb redneck.DDgunslinger wrote:I have no urge to watch this, nor do I admire any of the staff at KCR.

I'll reiterate, the "staff" does not impress me and the "show" will cast a poor light on Kentucky gun owners.

Well, no news there thenDDgunslinger wrote:this show will only make the firearms owners of Kentucky look like a bunch of dumb crazy rednecks.
Kidding of course! Luckily I only know the people starring in it as a bunch of good people. But, I only see and talk to them for 2 weeks in a year when I'm working the subgun nationals and visiting the machine gun shoot. Too bad I can't receive CMT on this side of the pond but I'll definetely make the effort of trying to watch the episodes one way or the other

Re: Guntucky -- Laugh or cry?
The "staff" Kenny has hired over the years has left a lot to be desired. He has some real turds on his staff. The range detail he has needs some refresher training on how not to be a douche. With some of the crowd that place draws from the city i understand the rules, but the attitudes don't make me wanna spend much time there.

One thing you can count on, the script will supercede their true personalities anyway.

Re: Guntucky -- Laugh or cry?
Not bad, but seems par for the course as far as gun shows are concerned. The lure for me is that it is somewhere that I know.

You have to remember that point, this is not their real personalities. This is what the directors want them to be.CatMostFeared wrote:It's made out to be a TV show and be funny. The directors come up with all the bullshit ideas
