The Show
The Show itself was very un-popular when it started. Even though it had very popular guests, and it even featured very popular celeberties, and American Idol contestants who were kicked out the night before, it didn't get good ratings. The Show itself didn't give up, during the Summer of 2004, On-Air with Ryan Seacrest tried to do mass-advertising, but many people often "ignored" the ads. So instead it tried everything, like letting fans meet their favorite celeberties. However in August 2004 45% of it's affiliates have taken the show off the air, which then later on brought to it's cancellation on September 17, 2004.
