please dear god no fox is considering

I don't even have words to describe how depressing this is, so I will

just pass along what I've learned. FOX wants to give our friend Joe

Buck a Late-Night Talk Show. Not only that, but they've already

completed the pilot to pitch to FOX execs. According to sources close

to the situation the idea recently came about when noodling on Jay

Leno's retirement and Conan's move to the 11pm slot. There seems to be

opportunity there to finally compete in the Late Night Arena for FOX's

and their first and only choice was Buck.

Here's the info I could find on a Broadcasting and Cable......

Fox is considering a weekly, half-hour late-night show hosted by

its lead sports personality. The network's entertainment division

just quietly completed a pilot for the show in New York.

The format currently under consideration would include both

interviews and comedy and be set in front of a small studio

audience.

Yes, that's right.....comedy folks. From what I gather this won't even

be a Sports-based show, FOX is making Joe Buck into the next Leno

right before our eyes. I can't believe I didn't see this coming

sooner.

If this does come to fruition, and you watch this show......you are

dead to me. We need to destroy this monster before it even rears its

ugly, unfunny, and smug head.

On the brightside, maybe this will get him out of the booth for good.
