I believe she is guest hosting the week of Jan 20th for one week. What  a fun gig for a week!


@CANDLEQUEEN Are they looking for a permanent replacement?


@Estellee I am not sure, probably since Hoda left, so they are probably going to have some guest hosts and then maybe decide. I would be surprised if Scarlett would want it permanently, she seems too busy with acting and her skincare line..

I'm surprised Jenna has lasted this long, or ever got the gig in the first place.  


@Sooner   I know I feel the same way,  I don't feel she's great at it.     Something about her I just don't care for.

@Kitty Galore Exactly.  Seems to be a little flip about a lot of things.  Which to me was a problem with the duo and the whole show.  Too much about and of the hosts.  I quit watching long ago.

These days I don't watch any of the morning entertainment shows, but I think we're all familiar with drill when someone leaves.  They have guest hosts until the audience can't take it anymore, and cries "Just hire someone!!!"  The whole process just takes too long.

I agree @Sooner .  Besides, I think 3 hours of Today is plenty long.

I agree with you.   Hoda seems like a great person but I don't think she was right for the Today show (first 2 hours). She took it from a news show to an entertainment show.   I hope they get back to news with Craig. 

 

As for the 3rd hour (I don't watch), but I wouldn't be surprised if Shenell will be the permanent host when she returns from family leave.
