I wish Ed the Sock was on more. Then maybe Much wouldn't suck so bad.

You think they'll still have it? With the way stuff is turning out at Much right now, I think that anything is possible.

Take away the Fromage Awards and Much will be nothing but a smelly pile of cheese.

Ed will definately do that again this year. In fact, he did a summer version already this year.

Now that Ed's big wham bam is gone there isn't a lot for him to do. lol. He used to host a video flow on Sunday afternoons. I always ended up watching whether I wanted to or not.

Good VJs left: Rick, Devon, Ed The Sock, Jen
I find Hannah to be quite obnoxious.
Oh and by the way, Ed still does Much Take Over.

As far as actually knowing what they were talking about and having passion for music. George, Sook-yin, and matster t, were the only good vjs. The rest were just there for the job. And it's cause they all had roots in the music sceces. George was on The Edge, Sook-yin was in the alternative scene and still has a weird band. And Master T WAS a HUGE part of the Canadian Rap scene.

I suppose Nam was cool too, she was not just smart, but had the cool life story, and was really genuinly likable. She's on TSN now i think.

Sook-yin was the only truly alternative vj, who hosts it now?

Really though if you see any of her interviews she is just as good if not better then George, now that i think of it's she's like a female george she was really intelligent and knew everything,

by the way i was asking about who hosts the Wedge, which was actualy Sook-yin's creation

Rainbow got fired (so i heard from someone else) because during the MMVAs or some such thing, the camera went to him when he wasn't expecting it, and he was smoking pot on screen for a few seconds.
