AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
trialversion412 Love this show. John is so funny with all his little comments. If you have never seen this show, you should definitely give it a try. If you were a Cheers fan, you can still watch "Cliff" in all his goofy ways.It is about companies that make there "stuff", here in America. He may show you the making of a Coleman grill to Campbell's soup to RV manufacturers. He usually interacts with the people on the assembly lines and usually tries their job. Funny watching him try something that takes the skilled worker lots of time and experience. He is always so good to emphasize how important all people are in the making of any such products. He is the perfect choice for the host of this show.Hi SHELLY, Love ya!
ashlynna58 I enjoy watching your show as it reinforces my feelings that we try our best to buy "Made in America". I would like to see you do a piece on Classic Leather. It is one of the last companies that still makes it's furniture in the time honored tradition. Their frames are still made in the US and exposed frames are still hand carved in the US where most companies are having everything made off shore. Please check them out. I think once people see what goes into making the furniture they will appreciate it and pay to have it "Made in America". Classic Leather is the oldest Leather furniture manufacturer in America, and is still family owned and operated.
Hawaiian_Mad_Dog John Ratzenberger makes this show unique. It's great for TV...nice to see what really makes America special...the people behind the scenes of every great product or idea made in the USA (alot of nostalgia here). John doesn't leave out anyone...everyone's important in this show. His genuine personality and sincerity comes shining through...along with his sense humor...I would love to have him as my neighbor!Great Job Discovery / Travel Channel...and Thanks to Reader's Digest! I hope this show's on for a long time...I never miss it...makes me feel good to be an American and instills good feelings about the people who live and work here. Nice to see hardworking people get credit.Watch it..if you haven't...this is reality TV.
jbradshaw Made In America is a truly unique show. John Ratzenberger travels around the United States to visit factories that create some of the more iconic products in the United States. The production of Jack Daniels Whiskey, the story behind the Howard Johnson motel chain, and even the story of John Deere and their production of farm equipment are all featured.John Ratzenberger's extremely likable personality make this show very down to earth and humble. If you want to check out the products that help make the United States great, be sure to tune in. It airs on the Travel Channel every week.This is one show that I hope stays on the air a long time. Kudos to the Travel Channel!
