He's coming back! After an enforced absence from the cable and satellite airwaves, Dennis Miller is plotting his return to television. Miller who last entertained the less than multitudes on CNBC, is making another return to Cable News, this time as part of the Fox Family of neo-comms.
Reports have it that Miller will join up with the Hannity and Colmes program this September, to offer his thesauriastic view of the days events. Miller's last program on CNBC was terminated due to low ratings, perhaps an unfair fate since the ratings of CNBC aren't the thing of a juggernaut at the best of time. Then again, if I remember his CNBC days, the show was at times a rather painful thing to watch as Miller and his producers struggled to find the right tone and method to deliver his in your face style of political commentary.
Miller had arrived at CNBC after a strange two years cooped up in the Monday Night Football booth, where he dispensed his thinking man's observations to the football mad sports fanatics, a combination that didn't exactly work out as ABC had planned.
Since those days he's appeared on the occasional HBO special in the USA, but alas the appearances on Canadian cable or satellite providers have been few and far between.
It will be interesting to see how Miller works his shtick into the Fox stream of info, but it should be a pretty seamless marriage of styles considering the timbre of his comments over the last three or four years.
All that's left to know is if the much lamented CNBC monkey will follow him along to Fox. The caustic bombast will begin September 13.
