go...CNN is overdoing it with Piers Morgan. There is<br />going to be a huge backlash.I think the suits at<br />CNN are wrongly thinking that Americans are<br />familiar with him because he is a judge on <br />America's Got Talent. I would say Nick Cannon<br />is more of the draw and the people.It is a dumb<br />assumption that people who watch America's<br />Got Talent want to see him beyond that show.<br />CNN is going to get a hard lesson just like NBC.<br />The hour long interview show does not work in<br />prime time.50 % of the viewers will flip the<br />channel right away when they hear the accent.<br />It is the same reason why you don't see <br />Americans doing news on the BBC. Right now<br />you can get Jools Holland and other similar<br />celebrity interview shows on BBC America<br />and they don't even measure in the ratings.<br />People regard him as a reality show personality.<br />CNN needs to keep in mind that people <br />will watch Modern Family on ABC, but not<br />them doing a show on CNN. People don't<br />like this guy and they flood NBC with calls.<br />CNN is forgetting that in order for people<br />to watch a show you have to like the host.<br />The guests won't win people over. TRMS<br />is going to be the big benefactor. People<br />know that the Oprah interview is nearly 3<br />week old and CNN will do some creative<br />editing.CNN better have a back up plan.<br />There is no positive buzz anywhere.It was<br />the same dumb logic that got us Parker<br />Spitzer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6540471114822045290.post-51874486689707070102011-01-11T12:59:25.769-05:002011-01-11T12:59:25.769-05:00@anonymous 1:25, Dr. Drew's show on HLN isn...@anonymous 1:25, Dr. Drew's show on HLN isn't scheduled to debute until Spring. <br />A statement released today says:<br /><br /><i>Please join HLN in welcoming Burt Dubrow, who will be the Executive Producer of the new Dr. Drew show set to launch this spring on HLN. </i>Phebehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05457996554927541014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6540471114822045290.post-21553470506821746762011-01-11T01:42:13.328-05:002011-01-11T01:42:13.328-05:00@11:55AM: You seem to be swayed easily.

Even though most of us do not expect his show to be successful, let's hope that his mission to make CNN #1 again works out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
