Just as I was getting into Impact again, my cable company Suddenlink, dropped all the Viacom channels

 

Appropriate cable company name.

I just had a thought about two months or whatever ago when they finished the NY tapings, everyone was so optimistic about the direction, the madhouse of the extreme, now look at it, LOOK AT IT!

Or don't. It's not a pretty sight. It's like a car crash, minus the excitement - so more like a slow 5 MPH collision that somehow leaves tons of damage in its wake.

There's several guys on the board who've done stand-up, some current and ex-rasslers who may well have done comedy, Ramsey-on-the-radio, etc.

Somehow I doubt that any of them populate the TNA threads.

So much cleverness going on, honestly, its like we have a bunch of professional comedians on here.

Nah, it's not like we write Impact

In my defense, sorry

Ion is allegedly the third channel that TNA is negotiating with, along with WGN America and Velocity.

Well, Meltzer mentioned them as a possibility on WOR yesterday. I like that option as it exposes them to a broadcast TV audience, but if WWE couldn't stay on the channel long, I don't like TNA's chances.

Just a bit of stand up back in the day, but I try to avoid easy targets like TNA.

Making fun of TNA isn't like shooting fish in a barrel; that's looking at fish in a barrel.

Main Event drew the best ratings of anything on ION, but cost/benefit it wasn't worth it to them.  I don't recall the exact numbers but they were paying WWE a lot per episode, not making it back selling advertising, and it didn't have a noticeable effect on drawing people to their other programming

 

TNA is going to come a lot cheaper, and they have their built in audience which watches them no matter what.  I think they'd do ratings comparable to what Main Event did

You could make an argument that the viewer is the fish in the barrel and TNA has the rifle...

And god knows they aren't even competent enough to try stabbing *with* the gun. And Dixie keeps shooting herself in the foot.

Somewhere there's a reference of the cow from "Me, Myself and Irene" in there.

They'd just throw it, like in the Superman show from the 50's.

 

I've never understood why Superman would always duck when they threw the gun at him.
