Is it just me or is Olberman the best show on ESPN right now?

I've only watched it a couple times, but it's a breath of fresh air from seeing the same stuff on repeat on sportscenter. I've always enjoyed PTI, but besides that I can't think of a better one.
IMO it's sort of the Grantland of their TV programs. Less bias, not afraid to call out high powered individuals, ect..

He's good, but his opinions are a bit over the top.
He's like the TV version of Colin Cowherd's radio show. His opening montages are really good, though.

I wish Cowherd would be given his own show. I know he has radio, but I love that dude. Come at me, haters.

Did they take it off of the air? I love Cowherd on radio but have never really liked him on TV.

I like both shows, but I prefer Cowherd because Olberman acts so elitist(look where that BS has led us as a nation). Cowherd has a bit of cockiness, but he seems like a regular guy that would be fun to hang with versus a pompous Keith.

He does go over the top at times, Cowherd is a good comparison

I dig Olbermann. He's a smart guy. Caustic, but smart. He takes after my own heart

Cowherd said on his show a few weeks ago that they offered him that Olbermann "slot" and he told them to frick off. That show comes on at 6, 7, 8, 11 or whenever the frick ESPN wants it to. He said the time slot was too fluid. Cowherd may be a troll, but he's not a dummy. His reasoning was sound in that decision. Plus Olbermann is like Draconian Sanctions with his ultra liberal trolling which is a perfect foil for the myriad of shows that tow the company line.

Also, if they would have given that slot to Cowherd, the show would have been canceled by now.
Olbermann does a very good job with it.

Totally agree. Herd is way more suited to morning/mid day and Olbermann is way more suited to evenings.

They've got Cowherd's show in the 3:30 slot on ESPN2 and that slot and Lebatard's is moved around and preempted even more. Highly Questionable has been on maybe 5 times in the last 5 weeks.

I don't think that means what you think it means.
It's an opinion show, thus it is ALL bias.

He should have never left ESPN to begin with. Olberman is much better at what he is doing now. I like his show, he isnt afraid to call people out. I loved when he called out Floyd Mayweather this week for his remarks about the Ray Rice situation. Mayweather later issued an apology. Good show!

The entire network and it's programming is ultra-liberal.

Collin's Football Show isn't enough?

Ok let's stop with the circle jerking going on here...
Olbermann is a pompous self addicted elitist and no way should be tolerated after listening to him spew his abortion like political views.
And WTF are you watching anything on ESPN for?

If true that KO's show is considered the best, this reinforces my current desires to only watch sporting events of interest. No highlight shows. Nothing else.
