Good Lord, it's now Paige Davis. FYI: In the newspaper today.. Paige Davis is leaving Trading Places. Her last episode will air in March.

I don't agree. Thinking back several years to the younger Robin.
The last thing I was thinking about nailing was a hunk of wood. Pat On Tue, 25 Jan 2005 15:52:32 -0500, "Upscale" wrote: "B a r r y" wrote in message I don't get the whole Robin Hartyl thing. It's very simple. What is better than a woman you find attractive? It's a woman you find attractive that likes the same things you do. Obviously since there are so few woman in the woodworking industry as compared to the amount of men, when you find one, it automatically makes her more attractive than she might otherwise be. |

The knuckleheads in charge of programming at TLC have continually messed around with the format and concept of Trading Spaces (not to mention over-exposing it with numerous spin-offs and specials) and seem surprised that the ratings have not held up, so their solution was to fire Paige and go with a no-host format starting next season.

I had this old adage on my office wall:
A Japanese Company and an American Company had a boat race. The Japanese Company won by a mile. The Americans hired consultants to determine what went wrong. The consultants said that the Japanese Company had six rowers and one manager while the American Company had four managers and two rowers. The Americans immediately restructured it's team to have three Sr. Managers, three Managers and one rower. In the rematch, the Japanese Company won by two miles - The Americans fired the rower.

WHAT?!?!?! That's 95% of the reason I watch... That and to see the crap they pump out. She looks FANTASTIC in High Definition. |

I have a friend who knows Robin. Here's the real scoop.
Hometime offered to renew her contract for the 13th season last August-04. Throughout 2004, Dean and Robin participated as spokespersons for Little Giant Ladder and shot an infomercial demonstrating the product. Within months, the infomercial was ranked among the top 10 in the country. Little Giant Ladder replaced Dean with Richard Karn (Al from the sitcom Home Improvement) and asked Robin to continue as a spokesperson and shoot a new infomercial with Richard. As I understand it, because of her contract with Hometime, she had to leave the show in order to take the deal with Little Giant. Apparently the deal was too good to pass up. So she declined the offer to renew with Hometime for a 13th season. |

I agree - I'm in the same position and it gripes me every month to pay for
50 more channels that are full of commercials. If it wern't for History, Discovery & HGTV, I'd probably tank it anyway. Don "Ba r r y" wrote in message ...

G For that matter, someone out there has so little of a life that they sit through them? TV is bad enough without the "content" being a 30 minute commercial. If I wasn't married, I wouldn't even bother with cable or sat TV, with so much to do and so many places and people to see. Barry |

I really ought to. The big trouble with it is that it's addictive. I sit down to watch one show and the whole evening's shot. Nice thing about movies is you go to the movie and 1-1/2 to 5 hours later it's over and you either have to go out to the lobby and get another ticket or go do something else.

Hi
Does any one where Robin is going. We need more DIY shows. Hopefully she will host a new one. |
