Those shows always end up being disappointing. I would say because there's really nothing new..a nd if there was something new, it wouldn't be kept secret by the producers of the show... you would have already found out.
Plus they usually end up being tied into Global Warming and I can't stand being propagandized to any longer.

IMHO

The majority of the show tonight was all about global warming... Go figure right? I personally think something will happen, but will it be bad? I don't think so... I think it will be something that shows us how live right, and be enlightening... On the other hand nothing could happen... Who knows... Humans have been around for how long now? Lived through how many "alignment cycles"... Even one guy mentioned that the last alignment humans were discovering many fundamentals of everyday life today... Fire, tools, and other things....

Besides their long-count calendar, the Maya kept track of much larger periods of time. According to Carl Johan Calleman, author of The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness, the nine levels of major mesoamerican pyramids represent different intervals of history dating back to creation. For instance, the lowest level, calculated in Mayan code as beginning 13 “hablatuns”, or 16.4 billion years ago, marks the formation of the universe – the Big Bang.

Calleman calculates the subsequent time periods in his nine-level scheme using the number 13. Going up the pyramid, each represents an acceleration of evolution - by a factor of 20 - compared to the interval preceding it. For instance, the second lowest level covers a time period beginning 13 “alautuns”, or 820 million years ago. That's ostensibly when animals first evolved on earth. The third unit begins 41 million years ago (primates), the fourth 2 million years ago (Homo Sapiens), the fifth 102,000 years ago, and the sixth about 5,000 years ago. The seventh period began around 1755 and ended in 1999, which coincides with the industrial revolution and rise of high technology.

If the math is correct, we are now residing at the second highest level on the pyramid, one that will last just under 13 years. After that, a final interval of 260 days will culminate in a date he maintains is October 28, 2011.

Calleman's October 28th end date for the Mayan long-count calendar isn't widely supported. In Maya Cosmogenesis 2012, former software developer John Major Jenkins insists like most other researchers that the correct end date is the December 21, 2012.
