Problem is, when we tend to get new announcers, topics about the old announcers sink below 30 days, so this becomes sort of necessary.

I'm fairly unchanged.

1. David
(huge gap)
2. Jeff
3. J.D.
4. George
(even huger gap)
5. Steve
6. Brad

Steve isn't terrible so far, his voice isn't THAT bad...but he looks really dumb holding the mic as opposed to leaving it on the mic stand (why did they put a cordless one up there anyways?), and his voice reminded me of Brad from time to time...we'll see what happens over time...

People are tired of the f**kery and drama, but if we'd actually talk to each other sometimes instead of a whole bunch of private conversations with other people, it'd go a long way to perhaps fixing the problems most seem to see in the site.

At the same time, didn't Brad hold the mic as well? (Most of us hated Brad doing the on-screen part anyway)

What I feel Jeff has that David doesn't is that Jeff meets the sidekick variety Great Uncle Producer Mikey wants. David has the announcer thing well down. Jeff and David have both shown that they are Loyal Fans and True of the Price is Right, which should be included, but people like George Gray, JD Roberto came out of absolutely nowhere. I mean, the two are former game show hosts (with very short-lived shows).

My pet peeve with George isn't his announcing, but the fact that he is not wearing his signature glasses. He honestly looks better on camera with those glasses. Without him, he seems pretty dull.

Yeah I understand. JD got a season out of the garbage known as Warehouse Till You Drop.

However, George does have some classic humor to him, such as the be shown on scene with his head down as if he's laughing too much and wants to hide it.

I've rewatched all 5 of these videos, I mean George knows his stuff.

There's a certain something about Steve that I really like. Not sure, though. We'll see with time.

David is still my favorite, but I would definitely not be disappointed with Jeff.
