Just cancelled the Season Pass on my TiVo to Countdown with Keith Olbermann since it ain't on no more. I wasn't watching it often anyway but neither was anyone else.
It recorded the first episode of his replacement, Viewpoint with Elliot Spitzer, and I gave that a brief try. I've enjoyed ex-governor Spitzer as a talking head in brief increments elsewhere but have no yearning to watch an hour of him each night. And if you think Olbermann's ratings were bad…
Mr. Olbermann will, by the way, be in the guest seat with Mr. Letterman on Tuesday night. He's not on the TiVo listing yet but he'll reportedly be there, probably being very guarded in what he says since litigation looms ahead.
