The New Tom Green Show: Cancelled

TOM GREEN SHOW CANNED

September 23, 2003 — ‘THE New Tom Green Show” has ceased production, ending MTV’s experiment with a nightly, late-night talk show.

Green and executive producer Burt Dubrow were informed late last week that MTV had decided to pull the plug.

MTV confirmed the decision yesterday, based on declining ratings.

“The New Tom Green Show” premiered to critical acclaim on June 23 and drew an average 889,000 viewers nightly at midnight on MTV in its first weeks, according to Nielsen figures.

But ratings dropped in July (774,000 viewers), August (580,000 viewers) and September (355,000).

Green will likely seek to place the show elsewhere.

Options include cable and broadcast channels as well as syndication, Dubrow said.

Green was unavailable for comment.

THE NEW TOM GREEN SHOW OWNED SOME SERIOUS ASS! he is a comedian who has something new to offer and should have his own show forever, but again MTV only cares about their gay ass ratings and money.

TOM GREEN OWN!

I loved the Tom Green Show and loved The New Tom Green Show even more. MTV used to be cool…now all they do is play their stupid rap music videos from sun up till sun down. MTV wouldn’t know cool if it bit them in the ass. And Tom Green was super cool. We love you Tom! Bring your show to VH1…they have a little potential.

I knew it, just when I am truly comfortable with a show and really like it I get screwed and they take it away. I should have hated it and it would have been kept for years. What luck. I think they new Tom was taking over the mentality of MTV and becoming the Johnny Carson of the network and they couldn’t stand the fact he would be so powerful. Maybe it was a personality clash. I remember it was muggy and sticky in the production area of the show and MTV locked up the thermostat so they would control the cooling to save money. So Tom cracked it with a bat and turned the thing up some where it should have been. It was that kind of control MTV feared. I say MTV you are dopes in this case. I do like your Sunday nights with Wild Boys and all but you made a big mistake here. You will be sorry. Real sorry. E will pick it up or another network on cable and it will be the linchpin to high ratings. Lick thoughs apples crack heads!

the new t g show made almost my every summer night hilarious and comfortably happy. They said they were returning with new episodes and then no communication- old one’s aired- and then nothing. Very irresponsible to the viewers and I was worried about the guy. What happened and why the lack of an MTv update, etc.?!

Stupid bastards at MTV..tsk tsk tsk. Tom Green was all they had left in my opinion. Jesus, his first show was awesome and it ended. They get him another show…its as cool as…if not cooler than the first one..and they cancel it. Fuck MTV up their stupid asses. I hope MTV doesn’t bring back Tom because all they will do is cancel it again. Tom needs to take his cool ass to another station and do his own deal without MTV. Bring Glen too…hes the man;) Also, bring back Phil.

MTV is full of fuckin faggots. they can all go stick their heads in a cows asshole. they could at least have tom green on friday and saturday nights at like 11. All they do all day is play gay, half-ass rap videos and look at an polish their “bling”. at least have some metal or rock shows on like vh1 which acctally has some quality because they never have shows on only mini series so they cant cancell that and have people hate them.

I have to disagree about the whole rap video thing. I also dont like rap along with a lot of you guys, but the thing about MTV is they dont play music at all. I dont understand this really because doesnt MTV Music Television? And the shows they play on there are terrible ( Pimp My Ride, Room Raiders) even Spring Break was Horrible this year, they filmed like 5 shows at spring break and replayed them like 25 times. MTV is getting to be the worst network on television. They have got rid of some of the best shows like The New Tom Green Show and Jackass. MTV does suck, but theyre not all about rap as you guys say, theyre about shitty ass shows.
