    Please stay on GW Jay! hide show

    I am happy that Jay has his own show now but I am really going to miss his character on GW. He added a little spark to the relationship between the newlyweds (especially when we thought he was going to come between them)! Does he really have to go? Will he come back for future episodes. (this may already be common knowledge for some-but I have been off-line a while and had not heard about this until recently). Now who is "Melinda" going to run to with all her questions about the dead? Come on CBS, make him an offer he can't refuse! Stay Jay!

    he is the reason why ghost whisperer is now my fav show! hide show

    he is the reason why ghost whisperer is now my fav show! Jay Mohr is just so friggin awsome. i luv everything about him. hes funny, a great actor, and he actually gave "life" to CBS's hit drama ghost whisperer, wich is, now, my fav show. Hes is the best actor, (no ofense, Jennifer Love Hewitt fans)i wish i could turn back time and make him the role of Jim Clancy, the main character Melinda Gordon's (JLH) husband, played by david conrad. conrad brings the role to deep depresion. a kirky guy like Jay would rlly spice up the show. well, i wish him the best of luck on his new show. but im gonna miss him on gw!

    He is pretty funny, Most of the time. He usually makes a show better. hide show

    He should go back to hosting Last Comic Standing, the last guy was alright but wasn't a stand up, at least wasn't as comfortable as Jay Mohr is with telling jokes, and hosting a show. I didn't care for his character on thet Ghost Whisper show, I have seen it a couple of times, but I could care less about your political opinions so don't tell me about them. That was the writers probably not him. I liked him also in the movies, like Mafia, Jerry Mcguire, and even in Go, which was an alright movie. He can play the bad guy or the good guy, and definitely can play comedic roles.
