Default Question about Jamie Kellner

We all know that Jamie Kellner used to be the former president of this former TV network called "The WB".

I do have a question to ask about Jamie:

"What led Jamie Kellner to become president of the entire WB TV network on the first place and why?"

Please reply your answer completely anytime ASAP, thank you very much.

Jamie Kellner is bad WB network president for these reasons:

1.) his choices on every shows in the WB (comedies, dramas and realities) were framed as badly despicable by the entire public criticism.

2.) his comedy style choice was framed as the worst structure, due to the fact that all WB comedy blocks were badly structured with too many irreconcilable broadened creative differences, and that led to all WB comedies (except for Reba) to get messed up and discontinued in the wrong time by the public and never returned officially.

3.) his choice on hiring the members to support both his bad comedy style and the entire WB network was too badly erratic and the public criticism cannot tolerate it.

All these three reasons should have led him to get fired from his job and never get hired again.

Although, Jamie now works as the current president of ACME productions, but he still should not have gotten hired by that company at all either.

Now treky, what led Jamie Kellner to become president of the WB network on the first place?

No way was every WB show despicable, and even if you thought so, the entire public would not. Gilmore Girls, 7th Heaven, and Reba are excellent shows. And I've never seen Kirk Cameron's self-titled sitcom but would like to.

The only WB shows that are most likely despicable by the public are all the WB comedies (except for Reba).

Now catsrule, what led Jamie Kellner to become president of the WB network on the first place?

He might be in a hurry to get a job and ended up creating mistakes along the way. Is this true that Jamie Kellner is careless person acting in a hurry to conserve his finances or not, Zoneboy? If so, then what's the point and explain more further about this, thank you.
