Rove McManus quits show - A good or bad thing?

It seems the Aussie public are relatively split in their feelings as to whether Rove’s announcement on Sunday night to quit his show was a good or bad thing. Rove McManus for those outside of Australia is essentially Australia’s Jay Leno, he is the face of weekly, late night talk show mayhem. Rove also produces numerous other projects and hosts “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader”.

Even though Rove is a popular guy, loads of people - me included - feel this couldn’t have come at a better time. Recently his show “Rove” has suffered with abysmal guests and out of studio interviews for actual celebrities. It seemed like every week it was another case of his friends being brought on as guests and any non Aussie stars being interviewed in a hotel room someplace. Maybe this is a little telling of how non Australian celebrities view Australia. Whatever the case Rove’s show slid downhill faster than the roadrunner on acid. Good luck to him though, maybe he’ll join the 7PM project and put some actual life into that.
