I love Al!!

Here's another interesting article. Sounds like a movie in the making:

If they should get rid of anyone it should be Matt, Savannah, and Kathie Lee.

The rumours are not true. I like Willie and Natalie.

He was hired to make changes and lift the Today Show out of second place. Fired before he ever had a chance to implement any changes because people didn't like him and his ideas. No wonder the Today Show sunk in the ratings.

I think they need to completely wipe the slate clean of their current hosts/co-hosts. The group they have on now is embarrassing, especially the women, who USED to be respected in their former roles but have now morphed into stupid, giggling schoolgirls. Natalie is the biggest disappointment; where did her self-respect go?

I wouldn't care if Tamron left or stayed. The one that doesn't seem to fit in is Savanna. I don't dislike her but she just seems awkward and out of the loop most of the time. I like Matt, Willie, and Natalie. There is no way they'd get rid of Al.

I don't watch the other two morning shows, can't abide Gail King and those on the other one, George, Robin, and the rest just don't appeal to me.

Anybody else here like Jenna Bush guest hosting on NBC Today Show (and sometimes on Kathie Lee and Hoda Show)? I like her energy, no matter who, what, etc.

I watch CBS because they have actual news on their program. All I can say about the Today Show is that it has gone downhill, trying to imitate GMA's phony giggling hosts. NBC seems to have the poorest human resources practices in America. Their firings, hirings, and goofs could be a model of what NOT to do.

I like her and don't mind her showing up from time to time. She seems to be in for anything.
