a PERSON ,...a PERSON,...'c u r r e n t' - l y ... in charge ! HUZZAH !

I’d like to see Keith play a cameo on Bar Karma. Yes Current! How about some diversification of programming to keep viewers more likely to not the change the channel? SO you got news, sci-fi original series (and spin-off?),a tech program, movie reviews (rotten tomatoes), a comedy original series ( what happened to supernews?), animated original series ( or short ?) a gaming show, the current ticker and phone booth back in Times Square (a la TRL) Vangaurd, and another real world drama show, sports-related reality show (based on actual sports statistics?) making it an interactive media channel. Keep Current current by staying ahead of the curve as you are the first to do the interactive show Bar Karma and that would be silly to throw that away considering how many filmmakers and webisodes are based on this new media. Maybe add a talk show to feature bands...isn’t Lil Wayne doing something like this? Diversify. Add special musical guests to play live on Countdown. Now that would be big. BIG! People who don’t like the to watch the news regularly might go to Countdown as their news source. Plus some of the guests Keith has interviewed already shows me that he likes putting actors with intelligent and passionate opinions on his show. Imagine, now, you put a songwriting Rock Star on the show. Woah, heavy dude.

I remember a broadcasting rule that opposing views were mandatory? Perhaps if debates are heated, film participants separately?

I suggest you think about bringing back some good old fashion investigative journalism, like 60 minutes, to investigate the fraud that is causing so much waste. Wall Street Journal has started, but I see little elsewhere. We must all work together to bring our country back from the brink.

You mean to say that nobody has been in charge...just like Congress ?

I do not want 24 hour commentary. I do not want 7 day a week commentary. How about entertainment during the day, repeated overnight. How about weekends with nothing but entertainment. Please do not overload me with new and commentary. Even I have to listen to music now and then just to decompress.

Yes, we need decompression time. Give back to the community, let the community control the weekends or late night TV. Otherwise we will all end up like Howard Beale, mad as hell, but crazy as a loon.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE see if you can recruit Phil Donahue to return--he has a huge fan base that would LOVE to see him on Current!!!!!

Lots of us still languishing (and fighting the good fight) at HP are thrilled at the mere thought of this possibility.

He'd be a fantastic fit!

Will current become the new main stream ? Cnn was not known for taking risks .... What i would like , is to find things out that are not easily known ... to follow the history of a thing , so it is well understood , to expose the dark areas , to be a champion for the oppressed . . CNN may have done some fancy tech stuff , i would not know , but i hear rumors of it , and that is indeed cutting edge , but can he do what is needed most ?

I hope this means pods will come back in some form and the community will be returned from our exile from the cyber nether regions of the back pages

twitter button didn't work...drop down menu on 'share' did

He has innovation in his DNA?

We shall see . . . (scanning now)

From what I have read of his accomplishments and experience this is a positive move for Current. I suppose the political transformation will be solidified with his coming as well. I am going to be hopeful we will see much more (vcc). He sure is an improvement from his predecessor. Welcome to Current Mr Bohrman.

This is good news Yes??

Best of luck Mr. Bohrman!

Does anyone know anything about his personality, his management style, his ability to be independent and speak truth to power like Keith. Those are the important qualities I would like to know before I can say if this is great or meh!

This sort of leaves me neither hot nor cold since I cannot get Current TV in my neck of the woods, but I'm happy for those who are happy about this. :)

Good post! Cool! This sounds very positive.

More documentaries....more...more....more!!!!

(Just hoping someone in the right place is reading this)
