he's smart and talented, and he's been my favourite vj for as long as i can remember.

i am vowing to never watch muchmusic again.
but i know that won't last longer than 10 minutes lol

this is sad!!!!
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

George does rock a lot but I wouldn't say he carries Much.

It'll be weird whenever Rick leaves :cry: :clumsy:

Every good vj is gone now. George was the only cool one left. Sara is just really annoying. Devon = not cool. I don't know what the hell the deal is with Matt.

Remember the good ol' days when Rick was still awesome, and Rachel was there. Alas.

I haven't watched Much in like 2 years... George was pretty good though and he'll be excellent on CBC.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

What is he doing on CBC???
!-¤M.a.r.i.s.s.a¤-!
Guy: Her locker's down the hall, I've counted 17 from mine.
Girl: Does he see me? Does he even know that I'm close by?
Guy: We're in the hallway, always at half past nine.
Girl: Would he ever get to know me? Would he take the time?

Heh, I don't get Much.

I still loved George, though. Definitely the most intelligent on there. However, he can do better. :nod:

There's a new show that will be airing on CBC about public issues that George will be hosting. Something like The Fifth Estate only more everyday things rather than murders and other rare occurances.

The show will be an hour long, and apparently George was offered a deal that he couldn't refuse.

Much always pretty well sucked except for the New music and Going Coastal (you can make an argument for the wedge but meh) A perfect sign of how Much is going down the drain is that Matt good's recent single wasn't accepted for muchmusic and was pushed to MuchMoreMusic.

VJ's are just pretty faces to throw to videos. They're interchangable. Very few of them actually do anything worthwhile on TV.

George was the best ones they've ever had. He had the most versatility and will be an asset to CBC, a REAL station.
