Truth or Scare was a documentary series that produced just 20 episodes over a 2 year period (2001-3), and part of the reason for that might have something to do with its host, actress Michelle Trachtenberg (Buffy, The Vampire Slayer), as the producers worked around her shooting schedule.
With Halloween right around the corner, Michelle takes a look at its origins.....
Michelle's delivery is a little flat, as she's there to teach and educate. Because of content, this wouldn't qualify for the FCC's E/I designation, and I don't think it aired in the daytime.
Rating: B--.

The Discover Kids channel wasn't that great, but it's current incarnation Discovery Family is even worse. The Hub was pretty good for a little while, but there's very little reason to tune in to Disc Fam, unless you're a fan of Cake Boss and home renovation shows, which have next to zilch to do with family programming. Disc Fam is basically the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Channel, which is what The Hub should have tried not to be.
As long as Hasbro has a controlling stake in it, they'll continue to spam My Little Pony down the viewers' throats. Simply sub CN for DF, Teen Titans Go for MLP:FIM, and it's the same thing.
