Tuesday, March 25, 2003 at 11:33 PM Many times he couldn't care less about the guest, just placates them, or can can be openly hostile. But he seems a little better lately. Maybe he was getting a little burnt out on all the bands who, frankly, for the most part, sound and act the same. But he seems to really like Bill Nye, and even Joe Millionaire and Paul Rodriquez, two guests you know he didn't really like before having them on, he seemed to really get along with and genuinely like. —Logo Lou |

Wednesday, March 26, 2003 at 9:41 AM I think when Adam's work load is more manageable it translates into a slightly better mood. The Man Show is history (interesting that Joe Rogan was a scheduled guest but never showed ... hmm)and from what I gather, it's now just Crank Yankers and helping out at Kimmel Live once in a while. That, and maybe he scored some really good red wine. I agree with all of the cookie-cutter bands lately. They're either silent and vapid, or high and obnoxious. Whaddya gonna do? —I like it when it does that |

Wednesday, March 26, 2003 at 1:06 PM I've noticed that, too. Adam seemed to hit it off with Joe Millionaire. (I've never watched that show, but he did look pretty hot in Cosmo, and he's done a lot of interviews with local radio shows and always comes across as very nice and sincere.) Can't blame Adam about the cookie-cutter bands. They are just wasting time that could be better spent listening to Adam rant. The Used (with Kelly Osbourne's ex-boyfriend, which is all they will ever be known for) was especially bad. —joy |

Wednesday, March 26, 2003 at 1:16 PM Hey, I like 'The Used'. I didn't hear them on loveline though. I fell asleep before he show even came on, so I don't know how they acted. The only bands Adam seems to get along with are 'The Vandals' and 'System of a Down'. Oh yeah, since I'm on the east coast I'll get to enjoy Bill Nye tonite, yay! —Ketchup |

Wednesday, March 26, 2003 at 3:45 PM Don't forget Queens of the Stone Age. I notice that both sides hit it off very well when they drop by. Also, Adam is home after travelling so much and his teeth seem to be on a dentist hiatus for awhile, so he's not all anxious about that (though it was great when he was all drugged up). I still wonder what he's cooking up at ABC besides JKL, because he's made slight references to other things there that he might be doing... —Mike |

Wednesday, March 26, 2003 at 5:43 PM I also remember hearing slight references to Drew doing something with ABC... it seems probable that Adam would always have some sort of project/idea on the table, but every idea doesn't necessarily go somewhere, and therefore we don't hear anything, ya know? Probably the same with Drew.

Wednesday, March 26, 2003 at 7:12 PM IIRC, Adam and Jimmy had a screenplay that they were pitching, but Jimmy stated in his Playboy interview a few months back that it was dead in the water. And speaking of Jimmy, I really wonder how long until his show starts to "click". I mean, I watch it, I WANT it to do well, but I start to uncomfortably squirm (no, no colonoscopy scope there) in my chair as I watch what could be, but isn't. I heard about Joe Rogan being considered by Comedy Central as a replacement host for the Man Show. Maybe that had something to do with his not appearing the other evening? —Bpsco |

Thursday, March 27, 2003 at 7:31 PM CNN.com Entertainment Feb 6, 2003 HOLLYWOOD, California (Variety) -- NBC and Comedy Central are close to sealing an unusual deal that will allow "Fear Factor" host Joe Rogan to moonlight as the new star of the cable network's "The Man Show," the series famed for depicting buxom women bouncing on trampolines. Rogan will replace original hosts Jimmy Kimmel, who now has his own ABC talk show, and Adam Carolla, who remains a "Loveline" radio staple. The show's executive producer, Daniel Kellison, has also departed. The trio will keep a "created by" credit. According to insiders, the threesome weren't anxious to see the beers-and-babes show continue without them but had earlier given up their ownership stake in exchange for creative control. "The three of them felt they had taken the concept as far as they could," said Scott Stone, whose Stone Stanley banner produces the series. "We and Comedy Central felt they created a brilliant format that has depth and staying power. We think it's incredible that we have a terrific primetime network talent that wants to take the show to the next step." Under the pact with NBC, Comedy Central will air a flurry of "Fear Factor" promos that would be the equivalent of a $1 million ad buy. Rogan, who's under exclusive contract to "Fear Factor," would also likely make frequent reference to the grossout reality series while hosting "The Man Show." NBC executives would not confirm the deal, but insiders said the network sees it as an opportunity to promote "Fear Factor" in what's become an overly crowded reality marketplace. "The Man Show," which airs Sunday at 10 p.m., remains Comedy Central's third-highest rated series (behind "South Park" and "Crank Yankers"), so the cabler was not anxious to see the franchise die. With Rogan in place, the channel has ordered 22 more episodes. According to Stone and partner David Stanley, the show will retain most of its current form, including the scantily clad female "Juggy" dancers and the end segment featuring women jumping on trampolines. The show's theme -- an unapologetic look at men and what they do -- will remain. Comedy Central still has 11 episodes left of the original Kimmel/Corolla "Man Show," which will run starting February 23. All told, 96 episodes of the original "Man Show" were produced. Production will begin on the new "Man Show" in March, with the first of those episodes likely to premiere in late summer. Stone Stanley is still scouting for a showrunner to replace Kellison, and is in talks with standup comedian Doug Stanhope to co-host the show with Rogan.

Thursday, March 27, 2003 at 8:11 PM I would hate this type of thing to ever happen to Loveline...
Can you imagine Stryker and Dr. Bruce (or equivelants) as the fulltime hosts of the show? I would shoot myself. I feel sorry for any truly hardcore fans of The Man Show. —Kevin U. |
