I really miss this show.

I really miss Cathy Rogers.

[stomachmonkey]

ditto.

Know what happened to them? They seemed to be increasing in audience base when I last saw them. Not the usual formula for cancellation.

Edited for spelling (duh)

In 2001 she was promoted to the role of Creative Director at RDF Media's new Los Angeles center, where she has overseen the company's activities in the USA, including the American versions of popular shows such as Faking It and Wife Swap.

Cathy Rogers has also enjoyed success as a musician, having played keyboards and sung vocals in the twee pop groups Heavenly and Marine Research.

Cathy now runs an olive farm in Loro Piceno, Italy, famous for its unique tree-adoption scheme.

I can't find any good pictures of her.

Interesting. I was just overseas and its still being shown on the UK's Discovery channel.

Never saw the show, but you can keep the chick. Woof.

Cathy may not have been what is considered by many "a beauty" but
was witty, smart and had a lot of hutzpah. I will take those qualities over "beauty" anytime when considering a long term relationship.

"Good looks don't last.....Good cooking do...."

After seeing the pictures in this tread, I know why you can't!

If by "different" you mean "incredibly homely," I agree.

Why not witty, smart, a lot of hutzpah, AND at least a little bit of beauty?

Good looks and good cooking?

Not quite sure I get your logic on this one, but that's OK.

Never saw the show, so I don't know how witty or smart she is (although I'm sure "She has a great personality!), I've just seen the pictures in this thread, and I'm just sayin' . . . woof! That's a double bagger.

[Moneyguy1]

And, respectfully, you would prefer someone like the "beauties" of Hollywood that can't chew gum and walk at the same time (or remember to put on their skivvies)?

Different strokes for different folks. I like relationships that have at least a modicum of intellectual content. Beauty in a woman (or man for that matter), without substance is about as enticing as a marble statue. Fun to look at but no soul. I do not know anything about you, or your age, but the comment I posted about cooking simpy means that as time goes by your tastes will change and you will value character and talent above fleeting good looks.

Cathy was creator and executive producer of the show, she wasn't just the co-host. She did much more work behind the scenes.

My friend, Dan Danknick was one of the founders of Robot Wars and BattleBots.
