Wow..5 first posts. How do you know she didn't quit?

Exactly.

Not only that you are complaining to SPEED, when you should actually be complaining to the Production company. Remember 99% of SPEEDs shows like this are not produced by SPEED, they are produced by a 3rd party production company, and then SPEED just buys them and airs them (same way a lot of regular tv shows work too).

I miss the "bike builders" all together .. but I guess they go with "what sells" ... but it seemed like "American Thunder" was what people wanted ..

but you are probably right -- we might be "barking up the wrong tree" ...

So if we can't complain to speed,who do we complain too.Or,do we follow along like sheep and just say oh well.Just sad to see Michele gone,and I don't like it,But,ohhhh well.I'm just 1 person and I'm sure speed doesn't give a dam.

Find out who the production company is (usually listed in the credits at the end of the show, or in a title-card at the start or ending of the show), and write to them. Go to Micheles website and contact her also.

I have contacted Michele, and she would like to come back. She made the show what it is. I think the new folks should go back to rice burners and reality shows.

Michele is the best! Bring back Michele!

She didn't quit. I sent an email to Michele through her own website, and asked her what the reason was for not being on the show.

She told me in her response that it was because the producers wanted a "new look" for the show.

They offered to keep her in for a few more episodes, but not as a host, so she declined.

So, to quote her response to me she said...., "After 11 years as host, why would I want to be "demoted"?

Can't say I blame her. But I do hope they bring her back.

So she did quit. If they offer to keep you on, and you say no, that is quitting.

Ohhhh...pleeeeez....Use your head! She didn't quit the job she had! They took it from her and gave it to someone else.

What they offered her was not the same job as the one she already had! She didn't want the job they were offering. Therefore she never had the job they were offering. So she did not quit anything!

What she did was turn down a DEMOTION!

WOULDN'T YOU IF YOU HAD ALREADY BEEN DOING THE JOB FOR 11 YEARS, AND THEN SOMEBODY GAVE YOUR JOB TO SOMEONE ELSE, AND THEN OFFERS YOU A PART TIME JOB FOR LESS MONEY...ON THE SAME SHOW YOU JUST HOSTED FOR 11 YEARS!!?????

GET YOUR HEAD ON STRAIGHT!

Her job was to be an on-air personality for this show. They offered her that again for this season, but she refused and quit.

Plus Alana and Charity are both way better looking then Michelle ever was.

UH UH..WRONG!! YOU OBVIOUSLY JUST DON"T GET IT.

YOU MUST BE YOUNG.
