J529 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Not fan of Ron Mclean by any means as sometimes he's said some dumb things. But to replace him of all people George Strombolopoulous? I really question that decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really question that decision. I understand your reservations .. I have a feeling that once you see him a few times you'll actually appreciate what he can bring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeyville88 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Strombo is way more effective as host of The Hour. That is a great show and, judging by the great guests who have appeared on it, is well respected. I'd much rather have him devote his time to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronalds.Kenins41 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 your kidding right , why would he say that? Well it started out as one time when he was kidding around(off air) and said "shirt less cherry" and gradually evolved into "don less cherry". No I am not kidding I met Maclean personally and asked him this question specifically. But his full name is Donald Stewart Cherry so I can understand why that user thought it was "Donald S Cherry". It's all good I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I really enjoy his radio show but his television personality has always vaguely annoyed me. I'll give it a chance before judging. HNIC needs a youth injection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidney Crosby. Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I like it! Strombo is great at what he does and could pump some life into Coach's Corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Ugh... Can't stand strombo... Shoulda got Brent Butt instead. I'd be ok with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodos Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I met him last year. Weird, quiet little dude. I'd prefer him over somebody like Brent Butt, though. Come on, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Strombo is a loser. His guests routinely make fun of him, I remember Gordon Ramsay indirectly call him a fat slob. "At least I can see my twig and berries when I look down" 4 more years before this lame horse is put out to pasture. I recommend not watching, and instead remembering the show as it once was, like 15 years ago. He's okay, but the CBC has worked really hard in trying to sell this guy. A little too hard.

Commercial Canuck Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think he's a good choice. I've always enjoyed The Hour so I'll be interested to see what he does with this. I'm 23, so perhaps I'm a little more wanting for a change in the narrative at CBC's HNIC. Although, I doubt it will be any more favourable to the Canucks.
