Apologies if this has been posted already, but I can't bring myself to scan through a bunch of TA posts again.

Smackdown had a best ever 6.7 network rating and 10 share on last nights show.

I think I might buy some WWF stock.

As for all the noise about earnings guidance, my one and only concern is why we apparently are only going to make $.25 in a quarter releasing Smackdown, along with reorders of WM2K. Either costs at THQ are significantly higher than a year ago, the deal with the WWF and JAKKS is weak, or we are not going to ship as much as I feel should easily sell given the extreme popularity of the WWF right now.

None of the possible reasons looks very good. I could easily accept a down quarter or two if it dealt with timing of releases. To have a down quarter in spite of releasing a major title, along with restocking sold out WM2K needs some explanation. I'll be listening on the 23rd.
