I'd say they could have kept trying to find make-up that didn't bother him. I'm sure the suit was heavy and hot, and the make-up caused allergic reactions, apparently, but...I can't entirely believe some other solution couldn't have been found. The original make-up just seemed somehow more evocative, more expressive, than the new Rev Bem. I guess it's kind of academic now.I'm sure Sorbo's ego had soemthing to do with many of the changes to the direction of the show, but, when you think about it, the show was essentially created as a vehicle for him. That doesn't mean he should totally dominate it, but he went into it with the assumption that he would be the center of the show.Tyr was a very interesting character. It's too bad he's leaving. Still, there could be room to do more with the other characters, which have been reduced down to perhaps even less of a role than Tyr.Maybe the show will somehow find its legs in the 4th season. You never know. I don't expect it, but hey, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.</blockquote>
