TV shows- Highway Thru Hell

This is the kind of show that has me wondering if I should get professional help, a lot of help!

This is like watching a train wreck but instead of a train, it's 18 wheelers, cars, and all sort of vehicles needing to be towed away.
Here what Wikipedia has to say about it:
Highway Thru Hell is a Canadian reality TV show that follows the operations of Jamie Davis Motor Trucking, a heavy vehicle rescue and recovery towing company based in Hope, British Columbia and Lac la Biche in Northern Alberta. The show focuses on the hardships of operating along the highways of the BC Interior, especially the Coquihalla Highway (Coq), and highways in Northern Alberta, around Fort McMurray, which are notorious for rapidly changing weather and big wrecks.
It's currently playing the fifth seasons and I can't stop watching it; Sometimes trucks has full load in their trailer and hang to a side of a cliff. Some other time, the trucks are only stuck in snow and need to be pull off. Spellbound!
To give a better and clearer idea of the show, I'll describe it for you: A truck loose control, it hit a snow bank and end up on its side. Jamie Davis' crews are call. When they arrived, they decided that just one towing truck will not be enough, they call a competitor. Both towing company work together and started to chain the truck and its trailer. The operator started slowly to pull on some levers on their equipment to move every thing back on its wheel. After about 2 times period of advertisement, the trucks is back on its wheel and drive away. Every one is happy. The end. 
Exciting, right? You are going to watch it from now on, right? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!
If you decide that this is a show for you, please let me know, we could trade names of health professional.
The picture of the kitten is a recommendation from my psychologist to fill my head with beautiful images instead of all the wrecks!

  1. As it is a Canadian tv show, it is your patriotic duty to watch! If it helps, you can imagine that kittens are driving the trucks.

    1. Don't be silly, kitten can't drive; It has to be an adult cat!

      But you might be on something about the patriotic duty, that would explain why I stand up during the show at attention and keep saluting... and drinking Tim Horton coffee!
