recently? you mean for the last 5 years.

^^ btw, Jenn's still at Much, she's just hidden.

she's around. she's always around. :D


George leaving Much?!?! Who will I look forward to daydream about? :O

no, but seriously. I agree that this dude practiacally carried Much, and he will be greatly missed. But you gotta admit, he could've done better, and CBC really is a damn great opportunity. :) i wish all the best.

Hope wrote:^true. mtv doesnt even play music related stuff i hear.

I can't remember the last time I put MTV on and The Real World or something equally as stupid and mundane wasn't on.

The worst part is that VH1 is almost just as bad now. And MTV2 is just as bad now, too (not that I even get it, but yeah).

I'd give my right leg to get MuchMusic here. :P

Are you fucking serious? Well at least this makes me happy that I don't watch TV anymore and thus have no idea who the new VJ's are, not that I especially care at this point :mad:

And re: George.... is CBC gonna make him cover his tats and take out his piercings and tame his hair?? :puppyeyes: I'm gonna revolt if they do.


*is reminded suddenly of Nerf Herder*

No tats, no piercings
No hats, no grunge beard baby, yeah

:dance:

Heh I love them. OK I believe we're finished here.

I think CBC will be fine with his image.

I think his image is what makes him, him. If they wern't going to accept that then they wouldn't have hired him. Besides, CBC can do some cool stuff. Like Zed. Only I've never watched Zed

So...is someone going to replace George then? I hope they don't have another VJ search or something. If they get another VJ equally as idiotic as Devon...I don't even want to think of that. *lol*

Nam was super cool too. And Amanda. And Master T. And Rachal. And that person who used to host the Wedge...what was her name again? She was cool.

I always find that the VJ search is pointless. There are really cool people that would make awesome VJ's and then they pick the one you don't want to win.

Though Bradford came out of the VJ search and he was my hero. He used to say when things were happening in Newfoundland time, for no apparent reason. :love:

Oh yeah...I guess Rainbow left too! Man, this sucks.

Yeah, he hosts MOD now AND SUCKS TERRIBLY AT IT. He's even worse than Rick. MOD will never be the same w/o Amanda.
