So Mike Rowe posted this today - I was guffawing listening to it.  _____________________________ Hey Mike - Whatever happened to Ghost Hunters? You were fantastic on that as a narrator. Then you were gone. Is there a story? Andy Greenberg Hi Andy You mean like, a “Ghost Story?” Not really. I was simply fired. Happens all the time. I can’t speak for the network, but I think the decision was based on two issues. First, I don’t believe in ghosts, and I may have said some things publicly that were in "conflict with the overriding ethos of the show." However, the more likely culprit was my increasing inability to get through a script without falling to pieces. Here for instance, is a rough cut from one of the last episodes I recorded. After listening, I’m fairly sure my firing was justified.

Did he eventually get through that? If he did, it was no small "feet." | |||

He was like a receding tide. Every take, he'd crack up and fall apart a little short of where he'd gotten before. I hear the nurse wanted to be a soccer player, but that idea got cut off at the knees. === I would like to apologize to anyone I have *not* offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly. | |||

I'm glad I listened before I went to bed, I couldn't hold it in “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

HA! LOL...You need to record this on video for us. I hear you got one of them fancy geetars! “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

THAT was pretty funny. I can tell you from personal experience behind a microphone that once you read a script that is strange sounding, unbelievable, funny, or just plain idiotic, and the laughter starts, it can be damn hard to recover, keep a straight face, and do the take. "All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope." --Sir Winston Churchill "The world is filled with violence. Because criminals carry guns, we decent law-abiding citizens should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will lose." --James Earl Jones | |||
