What happened to Stephen A Smith?

Can anyone please tell me what happened to Stephen A Smith's TV show Quite Frankly? It has disappeared from ESPN's schedule.

I think he'll be back after the Australian Open concludes. His show was off for a week or two at a time last year as well.

He's gonna be playing a reporter on an episode of "General Hospital" next week. He's reportedly a big fan of the show.

Stephen A being opinionated isn't what got him canned. He was AGGRAVATING more than anything. never met anyone who didn't say that about him first and foremost. everything is "Level 10" with him. they canned the show due to low ratings. He was actually getting better tho. He said he ageed with their decision and said he needs to get back to being happy. They'll use him in various ways on their other shows.

Yeah, second that smile

He got on my nerves a LOT, especially when he tried to talk boxing, a sport he knows nothing about (at least not as much as he thinks he knows). And he was on volume 10 twenty-four seven. Still, it was entertaining at times...And he conducted the best interview with Oscar DeLaHoya I've seen - threw 'ol Oscar some deep questions that caught him off guard. You could see the surprise/shock on "The Golden Boy's" face...

I loved this cat before he got his own show. He seems to get on everyone's nerves. Just the sound of his voice makes me wanna change the channel now. His tone is ALWAYS that of a confrontational know it all and I cant stand it. Im glad he got canned. Next, get rid of all of ABC's NBA announcers. They ALL suck ass!

Charles barkley can be funny sometimes. Like the time that he said Sam Cassell looks like Gollem from Lord Of The Rings.

Barkley's cool...but he works on TNT...their NBA coverage is far superior to that of ABC/ESPN. Both studio hosts/analysts and game commentators/analysts.

Yeah, I like Thursday nights on TNT (Barkley is a fool) but whenever its playoff time and the Pistons are on ABC/ESPN, I mute the tv and listen to the radio. I just cant stand those bastards! mad
