The problem with the Dennis Miller Show

The Dennis Miller Show on CNBC has been cancelled, and there is plenty of talk around the blogosphere as to what was wrong with the show. Here's what was wrong with the show-it was on CNBC. I liked the show, but after it first came on, I found myself watching it less and less. CNBC is an afterthought of a cable station. Once I missed a few episodes, it didn't take much for me to forget Miller was even on. In fact, whenever CNBC makes a little news, the first thing that always pops into my mind is, "CNBC is still up and running?" Miller had no lead in over there, and his show had to be a destination point for people. Unfortunately, that'll kill you're ratings.
