The show maybe be bad, but it's definitely not because of George Stroumboulopoulos.

No, it's not bad because of George, but he just doesn't help any either.
And, given that I was around when the Hodge/MacLean transition happened, what I recall was not as visceral or generational a response, but one more based on perception of depth and knowledge.
Strombo, however, paints a different picture to those of us in the more aging portion of the population. He walks, talks and acts like a "wannabe". He pretends to know more than he does, and instead of skillfully querying those who actually played the game he often tries to tell them what's going on. Not smart.
On the other hand, he's easy to ignore. Turn off the sound and he's fine.
