I watched four episodes of Dog the Bounty Hunter last night.  Kinda sad, but I must admit, I think Rachel and I have found a new favorite show.  For those of you not familiar with Dog, he's this 50-year old guy who lives in Hawaii who hunts down "fugitives" (people who have violated their bail bond -- mostly small-time crooks and drug addicts) with his wife Beth and his brother and two grown sons.  They all dress pretty much like Dog, meaning no sleeves on shirts and long hair.  When the crew finds the fugitives, they jump on them, spray them with mace if necessary, cuss them out and cuff them.  Then on the way to jail, they give them a cigarette and talk to them very gently about getting out of their lifestyle of drugs and crime.  Finally, they say a prayer to Jesus thanking him for his help in catching the fugitive.  Seriously, that's pretty much how every episode goes.  The cool thing is that almost always, the criminals just start breaking down and thanking Dog and his crew for caring for them.  I've heard that Dog and his family are strong Christians and that he speaks at churches, and I believe it: they talk about God and pray several times each show.  Many Christians probably doubt their faith because they cuss so much, they smoke, they have a very blended family, and the way they dress.  But I'm pretty impressed by their genuine love and just plain raw authenticity.  At the very least, it's entertaining.
