Hahahah, take your time, don't worry about it. I appreciate it!

Is it possible for you to post the morning open? If so, that would be awesome, thanks!

Savannah's contract has been renewed for 3 years. That brings her farther than Matt's current contract that expires in mid-2016. Also, Savannah for the first time ever, will be the one to interview POTUS before the super bowl.

Oh please. Like mentioned already, that is people trying to make a problem out of nothing.

I am not going to speculate on what will happen in 5 or 10 years because we simply don't know what will happen by then. So I am just going to ignore the whole middle paragraph. In terms of GMA being promoted on WNT, I'd say David mentions GMA as much as Brian mentions Today and Scott mentions CTM. You don't need to mention it every day, you mention it when there is something worth noting. And on George mentioning WNT during special reports. He ends his special reports nearly the same way every time and WNT is part of it. Also, I don't see how there is much competition between them, George does GMA, This Week and Specials and David does WNT. Unless you're talking about interviews where there could be debate who goes, besides that, I don't see much competition. George does his thing and David does his. And in terms of the stiffness of George vs. David. I don't see David as stiff when he's on GMA. More than George? Yeah, but George does GMA every day. George started out very stiff and got comfortable with time. David would do the same if he was on the program every day. I agree, as you mention, that they likely mutually respect each other. Rather than competition like you mention though, I think they each just do their own thing. Except during special events like SOTU, Elections, etc.... there is very little overlap between them. Overall, I think what they have is working and will continue for years to come. This sentence is gold. I agree wholeheartedly.

Happy to say Diane is back tonight with a report on WNT. https://twitter.com/behindnynews/status/558772506991927296

And so it begins. Cheryl on at 4pm now. Have to say, she's doing a lot better than when she started.

Agreed. Regardless, you get the gist of my post... And I agree with the statement above saying that The View needs controversy. Rosie O. and Nicole should be arguing a lot more. I don't know if Nicole doesn't want to fight or if Rosie doesn't want another Elizabeth but that is what made the show interesting and that's what needs to happen. The show needs to stop talking about Justin Beiber and it needs to start talking about politics, social issues and all the important stuff that made the show sucessfull. The View can be fixed, they just don't seem to want to do it.

Here's a thought, and I would like 24994J to chime in, what if they put Jerry on the 4pm and take him off the 10pm and put Cheryl at 10pm. Then Jerry gets better hours and as he begins the process to retire, this will probably a plus for him. That of course is a more complicated move, the easy move would to just add Cheryl or Phil to the 4pm broadcast. If they don't want to loose Phil too, maybe they put him on the 4pm and eventually Cheryl takes the rest of the evenings.

That's unfortunate. Well it said "The powers that be have decided to take the weather department in a direction that no longer includes me." So he isn't saying they are taking the weather segments in a different way, he is basically saying they decided that they don't want him anymore.

It's very fascinating. Go to YouTube and look up clips of The View when it was with Whoopi, Joy, Sherri, Elisabeth and Barbra and turn the TV on tomorrow and you will see such a huge difference. I'm talking beyond the set, graphics and hosts. Frankly, you can see why the show isn't doing well anymore. It's sad because the show was such a groundbreaking program. --- If rather than canceling The View, ABC chooses to make more changes, they should try to get Joy back and Barbra should return. I'd say bring Elisabeth back but I'm sure she is happy at Fox. But Nicole Wallace is really great on the show and she has filled Elisabeth's spot well. Whoopi, Joy, Nicole and Barbra would be a solid team and I think they would be able to bring the show back. And yes, if you hadn't noticed, Rosie O. was not in that, she needs to leave SOON.
