I only just saw this. We get the final episode on Friday.

It'll be sad to see him go. I've only watched the last 3-4 years but he's been very entertaining. The revamped format after the hiatus following his wife's death wasn't as good as the stuff before it. It felt like the spontaneity had gone from it, and it was all too structured.

Any other Aussies sad about this, or do you feel it was time for him to go?
 
Doesn't really bother me anymore, as I lost interest in his show a few years ago. I'd watch the odd episode here and there, but it was never has good as use to be.
 
Been years since I felt it was must watch TV. I only watch it from time to time if he has someone on I want to see. So I don't really care all that much.

Maybe we'll see the return of The Panel to take the role of a weekly proper talk show. I can't think of many people who would have the popularity to take Rove's mantle in a similar show. I'd like to see Micallef get another crack but given his type of humour it might struggle to get past "cult" status.
