Although Dirty Jobs is one of my favorite shows, I do enjoy a lot of Discovery’s other programming and that includes Deadliest Catch, Planet Earth, MythBusters, among others. Discovery has just informed me of a somewhat secret promotion on their website, enabling viewers to get a few of their best high definition Blu-ray sets on sale, up to 50%, in fact.

Get 50% off select Blu-Ray DVDs by entering promo code BLU50 at checkout.

Use the promo code and save big bucks on some awesome TV shows in beautiful high definition.

Although we don’t have any new episodes scheduled for the next few months, we have some excellent repeats of Dirty Jobs coming up soon. Take a look at what we have to look forward to…

Mushroom Farmer – August 8 at 10am EST
Greenland Shark Quest – August 8 at 7pm EST
Greenland Shark Quest – August 9 at 2am EST
Goose Down Plucker – August 11 at 8pm EST
Goose Down Plucker – August 11 at 11pm EST

I got word from Discovery a few hours ago that Dirty Jobs and MythBusters will be returning with all-new episodes in October. It’s still a ways away, but we’ve still got repeats to tide us over in the meantime.
