Why would people tune in consistently when they're actively pushed away any time they do watch?

They could easily get a better panel using their regional people. Cory Hirsch and Colby Armstrong aren't super polished but they come off as down to earth and someone you'd want to talk with. Leah Hextall knows her stuff and is good as a host.
Kypreos comes off as smug, Hrudey is much better in the booth or back when he was in a one on one situation like he was on the CBC HNIC Under the Mask stuff. Damian Cox is just unlikable. Friedman is good.
