And they did it ala Bond. Bring in a younger version to draw in a new generation of fans.
Wait!!! are we getting old? Is that what they are saying? That we are OLD and they need YOUNGER fans???!!!
Did you watch Boston Legal? It was one of the best shows on TV, I thought. One of the last season epiosodes when they knew they had been canceled they did a show about suing TV companies and how all the TV shows now a days where geared to 20 somethings and having young attractive cast was more important than good acting and plots, etc. The problem here is that the core TV audience is actually aging. This older TV audience is actually the one with all the money to spend and who shows and ads should be geared to.

Not that I have a problem with Dave Tennant... but when you think of someone that is wise beyond his years you usually think of some one a bit more mature... someone... dare I say middle aged.
