Some of his produced travel and food shows are not too bad. Low budget, simply shot, low production value and not a lot of distracting nonsense. But holy crap every other channel of Byron Allen's company that Spectrum shoved on the line-up are beyond awful. His Pets channel is nothing more than stealing internet videos of cats.

I've watched Funny You Should Ask numerous times. Just a bunch of bad jokes and a cheap grand prize of $5,000. At least some of the comedians are decent.
