Great Show!
I love Dirty Jobs, but Rowe does use adult language sometimes and some innuendo (like when he was a pig inseminator), but apart from that, it's a great (sorta gross) show.

Dirty Jobs
I love watching Dirty Jobs Mike Rowe is sooo funny. I never knew there were so many dirty jobs in the world. Throughout the show,though Mike swears very heavily, makes "suggestive" remarks and some episodes have Mike doing "suggestive" jobs. There are some episodes of this that even my parents don't let me watch. This show is definelty NOT for younger children.

I don't think that this is appropriate for young children, some of the jokes are definitely not appropriate, and the jobs sometimes aren't appropriate.

Best show
I love this show. I could watch it for hours and hours!! MY whole family loves it. We watch it whenever its on or try to a least.I think it's a cool way for kids to learn not to think their life is messy and hard. If they watch this I know they think wrong about the messy part. I do.

I personally have been obsessed with this show since age 9. Mike Rowe and his cast give credit to hard working Americans that are under appreciated or get no appreciation at all. When I was younger I didn't understand the 'adult' jokes and let them pass by. But I do warn you, some episodes are slightly inappropriate for really young kids, and they swear in about every episode of this show. They usually 'beep' out the more serious curse words though. I find this show extremely funny and entertaining, so I would DEFINITELY recommend it.

people have a way
humor is most of it. I never get yelled at for watching a single episode. Bring friends over eat pizza, crack open a soda. com on , not that bad of a show. ive gone past a limit here.
