Saturday, November 6, 2004 at 9:08 AM The best replacement for Adam is not DAG or that Chadwick guy (however you spell his name) but... drum roll... Jay Mohr! Remember when he was on the show with some female actress promoting their movie? He seemed to know ALL of Adam's jags and is equally funny! I bet he secretly listens to the show and try to pattern his comedic routine after the great Adam! That's actually a really good suggestion. Mohr has a lot of the insecurities and insights that Adam possesses, so he's in that general framework of being a great replacement. Read Mohr's book, Gasping for Airtime, and you'll see a new angle on the guy. I actually found his work more enjoyable once I learned he comes from such a troubled existence. Also, Mohr is no stranger to lifting another comic's routine, so the idea he listens in to the show is entirely plausible. But he ain't moving into radio now that he's got his prime time comedy gig going. He can make the comedy circuit rounds for quite a while feeding off of the Last Comic Standing popularity and make tons of money. But he would be a great fill-in. Stryker Sucks!
