Oh NO! My favorite game show might be off the air soon!
 
Cash Cab Kills a Pedestrian

Actually, I usually only catch the show by accident while I'm surfing, but I always stop to watch it. The driver reminds me of Mike Rowe.

Weird.

They referred to the 61 year old victim as elderly. Wow. I sure don't think of 61 year olds as elderly. I don't even see my 'rents (70 and 72) as elderly. Elderly implies the man was crossing the street as an elderly person might: really slowly and in stops and starts.

He must feel terrible. The driver, not the dead guy. :(

My wife was childhood friends with the driver. Actually, more with the driver's sister. The parents are still good friends. Fortunately, he (Ben Bailey) had nothing to do with killing a pedestrian. It was a producer.

Well, he might want to consider that what he did is the exact opposite of 'producing.'

(sorry, dark humor, you know.)

Plus it's the Canadian version, so it's only 85% as tragic as if it had happened in NYC.

He was 61 in Canadian years. ;)

Hitting a producer with your car is really far from a tragedy.

I'm guessing the dead guy ain't feeling too great about it all, either. :lol2:
