To be honest I wasn't totally on board with the TV version of Dilbert, and some of the cast members (Kathy Griffin for one) are impossible to imagine on it anymore.

But he's not wrong about UPN. The way they killed themselves was embarrassing, and now that they've bought Spike you can expect that to die too—not that Spike was Spike anymore for about a decade anyway.

I liked Spike better. The early days of Spike were a Wild West of great content: fun experimental stuff that didn't care about offending anyone and was unique.
