Gentle Ben



Ben Silverman was hired by NBC two years ago to be their 'hit maker' (no, that's not hit man) and the network is still waiting.

This is the dude who is responsible for bringing Knight Rider and American Gladiators back from the dead where they should have stayed.

Not only that, but Ben will be the man to blame for Jay Leno's upcoming five night a week primetime gig. If that doesn't bury the hatchet in his skull, nothing will.

He looks like a hit man to me - ya know, that sociopathic shimmer.

He also brought us "The Biggest Loser." I sure hope he doesn't end up being one.

I still don't understand the Jay Leno every night thing. What about the good shows they DO have? I am confused...guess I will learn soon enough.
