Gary, you've made a terrible mistake. On episode 392, you opened a bottle of Achaval Finca Mirador. Now, episode 393, it's Finca Altamira!!!! Wasn't it suposed to be the same bottle??? Poor Gary….Also, you have already tasted Mirador at episode 43, when you had Santiago as a guest!!!!!!!!!!

    Big G, Why do you have to break our B***s? Your not going to stop the Thunder Show. That’s how I’ll save the Show. I’ll kick the Knowledge that you can’t stop the Thunder Show. The show is beyond you, beyond me and beyond all the Vayniac’s. It’s like the Vine, a growing living thing. T-Shirt time, “You Can’t Stop the Thunder Show” and on the back “Like it or Not!”

    Okay Gary, what are you looking for from us. I have been watching you for three months now and have settled in to a nice routine. You hsve become my Seinfeld, every night, whenever there’s a new episode. What’s it gonna take Gary?????? Do we need to organize a protest in front of Wine Library. I’LL BE THERE!!!!
    In all seriousness, I hope you are just planning on something bigger and better.(Did you get your own cable show?????)
    If you are really retiring WLTV I want to just say thank you for your insane enthusiasm you have shared with all of us over the years. I hope you leave up the archive so I can go back and get a “dose of Gary” every now and then.
    See you at The Wine Library

    WLTV is like a CDP- Gary V is the main grape, but it takes all of the viewers to make it work. Together we will prevail!

    GV — if there *REALLY* are only a few more episodes, good luck fitting all those web 2.0 people and all the other guests you were talking about!

    Those two statements are at odds with each other.

    QOTD: I’ve told quite a few of my friends about the “THUNDER SHOW”. I will continue doing so.
    Also, Stay, for the sake of all the CKC’s!

  • QOTD: I can sure try, but saying…

    DON’T GO GV! PLEASE DON’T GO!

  • johnmaki

    Gary,
    Thanks for the run….
    It was a great +/- 2yrs. I’m going to miss you.
    (Oh, maybe I’ll still check out winelibrary.com and buy a few bottles from time to time), and I’ll remember fondly the THUNDER & LIGHTNING!!!
    Now that we’ve been led to the river, we’ll have to learn how to swim on our own… It’ll be interesting to see how many have reached ENLIGHTENMENT…
    What a way to go……………

    I can save the show for sure. Can you say new host. Hello everybody, and welcome to wine library tv. I am your hot Erich Rockman……..

    That sounds nice.

    QOTD: Definitely not me, but it needs to be done. This was a great show, I really enjoyed seeing you go back to these wines after a day. Thanks for the recommendation, and thanks for putting so much of yourself into these shows. I hope the archive will remain available after the 400th. I have a lot of catching up to do!

    Gary, I really hope that the 6 more shows stuff is just a bluff, but if it’s not I hope that your reason for retiring isn’t a bad. That’s to say, I know how much you love the show I hope that something bad hasn’t happened to force you to stop.

    QOTD: Not by myself, but as a member of the wine rebellion I can help!

  • Gary, actually, why we should save WLTV? Why do you want to stop at ep. 400?
    Maybe I missed something, but you didn’t give any reason…

    QOTD: Yes, I can save the show. I’ll tell U how in my comment to ep. 500 🙂

  • Jon Armstrong

    QoTD: I’ll call my congressman and see what I can do, but being in Ohio I don’t think that’d help much. I’ll continue to try, experiment, and follow my own palate with wine, and share with others. If we all do that the show will live on, though for my own selfish reasons I’d like to hope that the Thunder show will continue on in some form (was the Apple TV box in episode #391 a reference to changing channels or getting picked up elsewhere?). On the other hand, I can definately understand if the show is becoming a little too much to handle–hundreds of emails a day, planning, taping, meet ‘n’ greets, and running a business…
    Do what makes you happy Gary, and what gives you time to spend with the family too.

    Best of luck in your future endeavors. I am glad I found this before it was over – I have learned a ton. Thanks for that.

  • hugh

    OK, GV, two comments here:
    1) You can stop fooling us about ending at episode 399….the ONLY way u r ending this “run” is if u r buying the J-E-T-S….and, well you’re just not there….yet….especially with the recent market woes…..now, MAYBE when Vay-ner-baby comes along….that would be a good reason to hang it up….

    2) that 80’2 gum was “Freshen-Up”….i recall liking the spearmint best

    keep rockin…..Go GIANTS!!!!!!!!!! (sorry)………..

    QOTD: No. Nobody can save the show. It’s over. Verklumpt. Verput. Wir fahr’n aug Angland….

    You’re done. Stick a fork in it. How many more times can you mention dark chocolate, sour cherries and some ‘component’ followed by “which I like”?

    This is not a product or phenomenon that changes on a daily basis. You’ve said it all (would even Hugh Johnson have carried on this long?). Give it up, go back to managing a store or two, and try to spend more time with your family.

    How’s that for inoculation theory?

    Like most everyone is saying:
    Why? I don’t believe this is an economic decision. I have no facts to back up this opinion, but WL has to be doing better since you started WLTV. You’re just now getting the benefit for all the expenses you laid out in the first year. I alone had never ordered from WL until 8/07. Since then, I have placed 10 orders for a total of 10 cases + the Christmas pack + several bottles of the Vayniac Napa Cab Sauvignon (yet to be produced). You’ve got to be money ahead (or soon to be). Why stop WLTV now?

    If this is a personal decision (you need to quit), who am I to tell you that you can’t retire from WLTV? Thanks for all you’ve done.

    Please explain to us what’s going on.

    QOTD: Where will you get your daily fix of adulation if you end the show? Where will you be able to view my insightful comments? 🙂 Perhaps more importantly, will Sasha allow you to pop $150.00 wines anytime you want? So you see, it’s really in your best interests to save the show yourself! nOW, let’s not have any more of this nonsense.

    I’m confused and sad . . . Just a couple of weeks ago, you were talking about the things you wanted to do with the show in 2008 (more viewer e-mails, more food pairing). Just last week, you were talking about how you wanted to have more Web 2.0 personalities on the show. I understand changes of heart, but this like a change of personality.

  • QOTD: The show does not need salvation, it is within all converts. I bet that GV was able to build some awareness of our influence in the wine world. We are WLTV!

    Please, GV … go for the Familia Deicas Premiere Cru Garage. It would the a fantastic farewell.

    PS. Please, regarding the Apple TV thing, consider that some of us (countries, ie. Brazil) cannot have a apple store subscription. There are some stupid commercial regulations.

    Gary – Don’t fool around about stopping the show. It’s not nice to scare your fans like that. You got us hooked, now you have a responsibility. So just suck it up – make it a wine a day or something, but keep ’em coming!

  • BK

    Gary, thanks for mamories. Ta Ta’s for now.

    Very cool shows yesterday and today.. very interesting..
    One question though.. I usually cork my wine, even if i’m going to finish it the next night.. is it best to leave it uncorcked? or for that matter, not use one of those glass balls to seal the air in the decanter?

    QOTD: BOOO only a few more episodes! BOOO TO THAT! despite all your ‘parting thoughts’ I have a feeling you are messing with us, we can tell you still have fun with the show.. In any case, I’ll save the show! Hire ME as your ‘director of operations’ replacement, and then you’ll have time to continue doing the show! I’ll need some training though 😀
