Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/03 00:16 If CBS was worried about trying to fit it into programming, they should have expanded the audience. CBS owns more stations than the ones that carried Penn. They could have put it on in more cities. Penn could always set up an internet radio show if he still wants to do a radio show. He could sell ads on the site and in the show to make up the cost; maybe he could even charge a little for the downloads. He could finally say "Bullshit" instead of "Bull's hit". There are ways to solve this if people wanted to do so.

EDIT: He would also own all his shows. He could present them all for download as he pleased.

Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/03 00:30 Mike, all I can say is I asked him directly about your exact comment and he said that it wasn't true at all.

Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/03 00:39 This is kinda turning into "guess the reason Penn quit"! He sounds pretty dead set on returning to do a show in another form . . . so it's gotta have something to do with CBS. What's the deal?

Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/03 01:00 It's the weasels, man. They don't like people shining lights on their pulling activities. You can say what you want about monkeys, but weasels? They got connections.

Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/03 01:01 Guys, I gave you the reason. CBS and Penn were happy with it. This is it:.... "Penn and CBS would have been very
happy for the show to continue had the one hour format proven to have
been easier to program in to more markets. "

that's it, no third party..nobody was unhappy....there's your answer.

Mike, if you go to the Rio to see the show. Ask Penn about it. He'll say exactly what I just told you.

Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/03 01:10 It's a CONSPIRICY!!!

Oh sorry, sorry I have to stop doing that.

We have no idea out side of what he said but I doubt there is anything behind this other than what was said.

I imagine, that while corporate CBS produces and owns the shows aired, it is up to the local affiliate stations to program their own schedules. So maybe CBS could have promoted the show more to the affiliaes, or given them some incentive to program it, they probably don't really have much control over those actual decisions. I think the show was only airing in 6 or 7 markets, so I'm sure you can understand why CBS wouldn't want to continue spending money on it. It sucks, but that's business.

Re:Can we get a live update on the show today - 2007/03/05 16:27 Penn said there were three to four recorded episodes left.
Patrick corrected him and said there were two.

Vlad the Pedantic Impala there is no possible use for a signature* except to demonstrate how funny/geeky/cynical/pathetic you are.
