The End of an Era

The ESPN Hollywood era is over. The show has been cancelled and will air for the last time on January 26th.
The fate of many of the employees who began work on "ESPN Hollywood" (including Bern aka Michelle Kwan) hasn't yet been determined; executives said they were trying to find places for them. Still uncertain, too, are the ESPN futures of Andrews and Lopez.
"We were pleased with 'ESPN Hollywood's' ability to capture the cross currents of sports and entertainment, but our research and the ratings clearly suggest that a daily show may have been too much," said John Skipper, ESPN's executive vp content.
I didn't mind Mario Lopez and Thea Andrews is kind of sexy. I will miss the show because it provided a lot of good stories for the blog, including:

Warren Sapp is a fat pig
Eva stepping out on Tony (still one my favorite captions)
T.O. in Penthouse
So much for his happy ending

Slater is all growns up
