Did Live! Jump the Shark With No Cedar Rapids Affliate?

 I feel the fissures with Live run deeper than the Fab 5 as I feel it jumped the Shark with a Business Move we where Blindsided in the Middle of the Tokyo Olympics: Live Not Being a Cedar Rapids Affiliated Show.

A lot of the moves between Quincy, Gray and Allen where Forced, especially when you had Trucks (And People Moving) because they had the same markets. This could cut open a Raw Nerve because we would not have Oprah or Live, in its many iteriations, Live for the 1st Time in My Lifetime.

And, while we we are at it, Cedar Rapids was the 1st in Line Outside New York for Live! and it was a Welcome Bastion from the Infamous Trash TV and KGAN always had Live! With Regis and Kathie Lee and the Price is Right Back to Back for Years.

Making a National Story Local is Not My Bag, but, the Kelly and Ryan Years made Live worse and not better and Ryan Seacrest's James Brown Work Ethic did not make anyone feel good, for all kicks and giggles, either.
