Well honestly I'm not surprised the show was cancelled. I agree with Jay that viewers (and I can only speak for myself and my husband) were burned out on it without a break between "seasons." I also did not like this format for the show. The interaction between the comics in the house was part of what I originally liked about the show. I suspect the format was changed because Dat Phan won season 1 (which I totally agreed with--I liked him best) partially because I think viewers were angry at the way the other houseguests treated him. Don't you think?

I don't how many of you noticed Tammy Pescatelli's bracelet, but my oldest daughter really liked it, and has been wondering where she could find one like it. Last night both daughters decided to go to see Tammy in person in Omaha. Oldest daughters mission was to find out where she got her bracelet. So after the show, the two girls stood in line to ask her! Tammy was very surprised and said that no one has asked her about the bracelet before, and that it was an interesting story. She was in Iraq entertaining the troops. At one point, they came under fire. Some glass flew and cut her wrist. She had to have stitches. So not to call attention to her injury she went out and bought this bracelet to cover her bandage. When she got back, she decided to continue wearing the bracelet until the troops come home.

Nice story. Scary for her too. Must be a cuff style, yes?

I googled her name in hopes of seeing that bracelet but only got two face shots.

Fruitbat...I am surprised it was cancelled before a final episode that's just dumb, but I WASN'T surprised it won't be renewed.

Okay...I was wrong about the braclet...it is brass and "long cuff style" (about six inches) with no hinge.

I just heard about this on Celebrity Justice and am shocked!! (I was wondering why they had 3 back to back episodes of Father of the Pride - with 1 or 2 being repeats - and no Last Comic Standing.) Jay Mohr announced the winner on a live Arizona morning show (after news of the cancellation of the final episode). The name was bleeped out by Celebrity Justice, but Jay did say the name. In a clip of that morning show, Jay said: "maybe we'll announce the winner during Father of the Pride? How about no because I just announced it. Ok? [bleep] won." Another clip: "NBC cancelled Last Comic Standing with one show to go. All we had to do was crown a winner. But the winner is [bleep]. How's that NBC! How ya doin. Wanna cancel the show?" Another clip where Jay says "[bleep] enjoy your $250,000." Some of the talk from the host of Celebrity Justice included referencing Jay's website. Also said: "Trouble is, while Mohr believed the show was cancelled, NBC officials tell CJ they are still in discussion and have yet to announce plans on how they will deal with the show's finale." Then some speculation on the possible legal dilema. ------------------------------------ Jay's website now says: FROM JAY... Quick update... It looks like we WILL be airing a finale of Last Comic Standing 3 on Comedy Central! Watch this site for more information... I will pass on the details as soon as I can! Jay --------------------------------- SPOILER..... if you don't want to see who I think Jay said, don't read on: it really looked like Jay said Alonzo Boden - which I find very probable.

Thanks Luv! Now NBC is saying no 1/2 hour final. I guess Jay irritated them and he is not going to get a finale to his show afterall. Now the comics are going to be mad at BOTH Jay and NBC.

well according to Jay's website, the finale is going to be shown on Comedy Central. And I don't think the comics will be mad at him. They shouldn't be! Aren't these shows live? If so, then they haven't filmed the finale yet - correct? (of course Jay would know the winner already because the votes have been tallied) Or maybe because it's the finale and there's no more voting to be done, they have already filmed it. If it is live, I wonder if they will make digs at NBC. That should be interesting

If nothing else, this show is great exposure and shows people just how much talent is out there in the night clubs. I know we all have our faves on this show but in reality, I would go to see most of these comedians in a club if they were near my town and before I wouldn't have known any of them. It's just too bad the network execs feel a need to pit them against each other in shows like this.

Well a network show is major big time. Comedy Central is a good second bet but being bumped is NOT good. It sucks for ABC to kiss this off at this late date.

.................and will we even know when it airs? MY guess is 70% of us will miss it and not even care since we know Alonzo wins. .............disgrunteled Dave fan..................

your guess would probably be wrong since if 70% were dave fans then he'd have won instead of Zo

Fruitbat - if you think he wins because of my previous post - I could be wrong. It looked to me like that's who Jay said - but I could be wrong. And if the final episode wasn't filmed yet, maybe there will be some surprises in store. I love NBC, but they're disappointing me this season. I think they made a big mistake on this one!

Kappy - you should check out Comedy Central. A lot of these comics apppear on 1/2 hr specials (prior to appearing on Last Comic Standing) called "Comedy Central Presents" and "Premium Blend" I myself wasn't aware of this until recently when I started seeing the familiar names. Gary G. was just on this past Friday. Rich Vos will be on this coming Friday at 8:30pm (eastern) I can't remember the other people I've seen in the past, but I was surprised that so many of the contestants of LCS already had a TV special.

LOL at Fruit..it's on NBC! but I know ABC is the one known for this so it was understandable that you wrote ABC instead of NBC!!! Another thing about NBC doing this is that the audience participated so they not only screwed the comics they screwed their audience....NOT a good thing!!!!!!!

I finally watched the last show when it was repeated on Comedy Central this weekend, and I thought they all did a good job. John seemed off in his delivery...though I liked his material. For some reason he was missing that laugh-out-loud punch and didn't have the rhythm down. Rich was definitely the most nervous....I was nervous for him, which meant that I wasn't always focusing on what he had to say. Dave was the best overall....very confident with himself and good material. Alonzo...good, but still not his best. They are a talented bunch....I would be happy with any of them winning and wish them all every success. As for NBC's treatment of the show...it bugs me. I really wanted to see the finale, though I do understand if they are annoyed by Jay Mohr's conduct. I know where he was coming from, but he was not very professional and I think he may have hurt their chances instead of helped them. The comedians deserved better. Leave it to the fans to be obnoxious, Jay! I hope Comedy Central shows the finale...I'll be watching.
