Because I can!

Jack had agreed to do two years up front. He did that and was done. |

Do you know if he never signed up for more after that because of any of the stuff I suggested? I'm just curious as to how accuarte some of my suspicions are. In the end I am not there in person or course, and I have to based things on what I see them put on the air, what things I may read in places,...and my own experience working in TV. |

My excited-ness in my post yesterday comes a lot from reading all the constant "driver bashing" in these forums (including other site's forums). A lot of it doesn't even have much substance to it and starts to sometimes sound like grade school playground bashing of people (he's stupid,...she's an idiot,...he's a *ick!). I just get tired of it. I may complain some (ok, a lot) about stuff related to how the show is done, put together,..edited,..ect,...but I don't bash the drivers in the show personally,...there is just no way to know what is real and what is just "TV". |

Well you hit the nail on the head there Phil. I've heard in person from personage that was there, and the editing really does change the whole story. |

You are right Phil, though I question whether they really let Maya be herself, why would they if they insisted on Dave being the bad guy? But they are promoting her like she will be the next Lisa, I guess she is Lisa Insurance for the show or something. As for Jack, after being on the show and seeing what it's all about, why would he want back in? Only Ray has hinted he wanted back I don't know why other than to prove something more? |

With Maya, they really have not done much with her yet. She's probably done more off the show in Promos and Events than what you have seen on the show. If they bring her back next season I expect they do more with her. Anyway, my point with that is simply that they haven't done enough with her yet for her to either "be herself", nor to be "something else",...just not enough air-time done yet. Dave, well he wasn't a "new guy",..he was just new at Carlile. Dave had already done a season with History in India and I think they were trying to capitalize on his personality and pushed it way too far. Next year will probably be "Maya's year" if she returns and well see what they do with that. I like all the drivers, I tolerated Dave's complaining because I knew it wasn't real,...I tolerated Tony's situation with Dave because I figured it was as trumped up as everything else. Tony has been on the show for as long as Lisa and he has done ok all that time before now. I have no problem with Maya being more of a girly-girl and if she wants to drive the truck in a bikini and call the truck cute I'll be sure to record it :ermm: . There's no reason we need two tom-boys. Lisa does fine with that so let's let Lisa be Lisa and let Maya be Maya. However if you read more on Maya's history she is a lot more of a tom-boy than people may think and she certainly isn't afraid to break a nail and get dirty. I guess with that in mind, maybe you're right and they haven't had her be herself,...we'll have to see next season,...but I don't think her personality has been "altered" too much at this point. |

I don't remember to much about Ray beyond the Ray -vs- Greg competition in whatever season that was. |
