Man alive, I'd think with a month under their belt the show would be more smooth.

Pappy's still just thinking out loud, Jen chirps in all the time (sometimes with her mic off, and Jiggs tries to keep the meters moving. Still a bit disjointed - but that was Mike and Dan's claim to fame on the radio too. It just doesn't translate very well to TV.

Also.... With his pasty complexion and contorted face, when Pappy slicks his hair back, he looks like this famous thespian:

Yeah In honor of Rodeo Vann I want to do a hour by hour breakdown, but I can't sit through it without turning it off....honestly, I FF until I see what Cycy is looking like for the day, and then delete it off the the DVR.

haven't seen much north talk here so thought he must have been doing well on his show. So the show is a good fit for north? Even though I've shit on him in the past, it would be a good story if he and Jiggs did well w/ this show.

I think the lack of North talk means that even the "passing a car accident" observers have given up on him.

Even Rodeo seems like he could give a shit :-)

Rodeo is too busy dealing with his overweight, obnoxious in-laws to be able to devote any time the Mike.

North just hanging on to the edge right now. I have not watched the show in a few weeks and even then watched only a few minutes.

This whole Morning TV thing is a huge mistake.

North will be fine when he gets a WLS gig and I predict (ding) he will be much happier.

Come on Score, the guy is never going back to slinging dogs full time, but I dont doubt the show is fading away at a rapid pace.

Please do not get wrong, I don't think Mike North has a talent, but he is a good listen for his outrageous remarks to many subjects. The surprise, the shock, the unplanned remarks is what made the guy. Not his ability to control or produce a show. One day, someone will offer him a cheap deal to be on the air and if they are smart, with someone else that he ahs no authority over and the show will grow and thrive again.

It is an amazingly simple formula, not sure if North refuses to believe it or nobody has ever said it to him?
