Does anybody else here watch The Powerblock on Spike TV?

Ive been watching these shows for nearly a decade now and theyve totally ruined them.

First off they took off Car and Driver TV which was a great show! Now its gone.

Then they get rid of Danica Patrick as host and get some bimbo. While she's easy on the eyes it was cool having an Indy car driver as host.

Then they get a 4x4 show which is good but they get 2 horrible hosts.

Then they come up with Muscle Car TV and, again, 2 horrible hosts.

Well now the final nail, today I tune into my favorite show, Trucks, and Stacey is gone! Now theyve got a pro wrestler looking dude and some other head on there!

WTF?!?

Why do they have to mess with good shows? Ive been looking on the internet and cant find any info as to why Stacey left. Oh well, I guess that frees up about 3 hours on my weekends now.

    I dug the show because they did evrything right, not half-assed. My wife will be sorry to see the nut-huggin', mullet wearing, Stacey gone.

    LOL! He made us southern boys proud. He will be missed.

    Found on the Trucks website that he left on his own to pursue "other interests".

    I think Stacey moved on when they decided to combine the studios for ease of filming. They also seem to be trying for a younger crowd. Corporate crap like that drives away the best guys. What you have now are the young guys trying to become established. At least they all aren't putting neon and farts pipes on everything!

    Why wont anybody put out a car audio "how to" show? As popular as car audio is these days I would think a show like Trucks but about car audio would do fairly well.

    Well maybe they could come out with a show that doesnt have a fat, 4' munchkin running around talking **** like hes the baddest dude on the planet. And even better maybe a show that shows you something other than building a box, mounting the amps to it and sticking it in the back of a Tahoe with 42" wheels. ;)

    You wont believe the 2 new guys. One of the dudes looks like an average Joe but the other one looks like a professional wrestler. He even has the scratchy voice. Theyre both kinda irritating to watch.
