PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Going to another network would be a step down and an embarrassment. Let it go.

I was just discussing this with someone and made the same point as you. As has been clearly evidenced the past couple of days, EPMB cares, more than anything else, about making $$$. (And fair enough; why shouldn't he, after all?). I can't see him settling for, say, Spike TV-type money. Indeed, it would take network cash to make this thing work, unless the purses for future seasons were a fifty dollar gift voucher and a Greyhound ticket home.

Wow, I really hope that EPMB will take the show to another network, someone like CBS maybe. I'm getting frustrated reading articles about how NBC screwed up the ratings by taking it from Thursdays and putting it in the Sunday slot, and also about how people don't think that women watch the show. However, I read that it wasn't so much EPMB that was mad about the time switch as it was Sly who vowed not to do a second season because of the change. I would hope that EPMB sees that there are millions of female boxing fans that will follow the show to whatever network is smart enough to snatch it up!! Besides, I hear that there's a ripoff show coming out soon from another network (FOX I think) and there's just no chance that will even be in the same ballpark as Contender, but what else can we do if they aren't bringing Contender back??
