  1. Okay I didn't know he was in France. Thanks
  2. So Chris Cuomo is not going to be there tomorrow. To bad I wonder why? Almost every person who been on GMA in last 40 Years is going to be there.
  3. That discussion between George and Charlie was Fascinating indeed. Very candid
  4. The story about Charles and Diana wedding. I am a monarchist and follow the BRF so I found it very interesting
  5. Wow INTERESTING!! The story Joan just told!
  6. David no Charlie joking about Joan being their Girl was pretty funny I wonder if Meredith, Katie and Savannah have those arguments about Matt lol
  7. I am a Today Show Viewer but I am loving this GMA 40 for 40. I like watching Any especially. Great thing is if there any major breaking News tonight and tomorrow night they will be right on top of it and one of the first
  8. You should read Amy Robach book she released back in September about her battle with breast cancer. She talk quit a bit and very openly in the book about why she left Weekend TODAY Show and NBC back in 2012. She doesn't hold back much. She was very unhappy in her last couple years there. She was going through a lot of stuff at the time (Stress along with anxiety attacks and other personal things and at one point she had a doctor appointment in early spring of 2012 where she found out her heart was damaged) and said how for the last few years she was not feeling the love anymore at NBC like they (the executives high up not her co-workers. she was still very much respected and love when it came TODAY Show staff) really did not want her there anymore. Her career has hit a dead end and she was not really going anywhere. she been doing Saturday TODAY for 4 1/2 Years. She had until 2010 been filling in for Meredith, Brian, Ann and Natalie but suddenly the calls started coming less and less and then eventually they just stop. She was told by doctors she needed to slow down with working. in 2012 her contract was up soon but she was not hearing at all from NBC about renewal and her agent was not getting any calls and that made her worried. She admit that she wanted to move up to Weekday TODAY when Meredith announced she was leaving. She wanted the Third Hour co-hosting job on the Weekday Show. she thought (And says it was) her! When Savannah got the Third Hour Job job she then felt it was time for her to leave. And so she joined ABC. She felt like she had to last chance. This was before the whole Ann curry tihng. Had she knew what was about to happen who knows if she would have stayed or not but when Amy left it made room for Tamron. I should say she has no animosity for Savannah whatsoever. Just thought I should point that out. she doesn't blame her at all. She does still seem to have some bad blood towards NBC 9and probably rightfully so) But then after awhile at ABC she also started to feel like they were not doing much with her anymore especially after Robin came back to GMA full time. they then kept promising her that they had something planned for her. Anyway it was very interesting read. I was surprise at how much details she went into, a Great book overall. But the same has happened to other Weekend Anchors including Jodi Applegate, Campbell brown, Soledad O'Brien and Maria Shriver. The only weekend Co-anchor who ever got promoted to weekday show was Katie Couric.
  9. Today Show moved closer to GMA Last week in Total Viewers and won one again in Age 25-54 Demo. It largest Age Gap with GMA since 2013
  10. Jenna Wolf leaving NBC http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/jenna-wolfe-leaving-nbc/276740
  11. Well Natalie Contract expire in a year and as much as I hope she doesn't leave It does seem more likely she well. She been a valuable ember of TODAY for nearly a decade. If NBC really does want to get rid of her then (and let renumber Morning Shows like to make change near the end of the year then they do in the middle or early on) then why not wait until ger Contract runs out a year from now? But if Natalie is leaving on her own in order to get away from Tamron then I really don't blame her. But for the moment it just our speculation though it been written that Hoda could replace Natalie but that back when it was not sure if Lester would keep his Dateline Job. But I would have Hoda or Sheinelle then Tamron. And Savannah obviously going to be there for many years to come. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens. It just very cornering. And hen they start use to them ls like that it usually a good sign. But then we should take what the producers say with a grain of salt.
  12. Well the weekend people have never gotten much respect in first place. Only Lester and Katie have been promoted I do like Natalie she my favorite person on the show. I hope they don't phase her out. Noah Oppenheimer said changes were needed but could be made with it current cast which I agree But Andy Lack Who came soon afterward probably had a different idea. And NIW that he done with Nightly and in the midst of Reinventing MSNBC he probably now probably his next thing far need change; TODAY Matt may have been able to save their jobs lady but who know if he will be able to now. Maybe asAndy is one who hired Mtt for TODAY
  13. They seem to be switching things up for some reason. Natalie has not read News Briefs In The First Hour for Three Days now for whatever reason. I have to admit frankly kind of bothers me a little
  14. Hmm very intriguing..
  15. I had kind of forgotten that Juju was News-anchor at one time. She was not there very long, her tenure really seem to fly by. Juju was there for 15 Months. Josh tenure was on 2 Years 10 Months but seem like it was longer then that for some reason. In looking at past GMA News-anchors none of them seem to be there for more then 4 years except for Steve Bell who was News-anchor for 11 years. Although I think Amy will still be News-anchor by 2019 making her the Second Longest Serving.
  16. You right, it just very interesting. I remember being get a little surprise when Deborah Norville showed up for TODAY 60th. It brought back some bad memories for the show
  17. I have to say that I am a bit surprise that Kevin Newman and Lisa McRee are going to be there. After all it was during their short tenure that GMA fell to 3rd Place
  18. TODAY Show continues to make strides against GMA winning sixth week in Age 25-54 category and came within 401,000 Total Viewers last week. http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/morning-show-ratings-week-of-oct-5/274730 And yet Jamie Horrowitz wanted to fire everyone last year except for Matt and Hoda. Yeah that would have ended well for them. I guarantee you that whim weeks TODAY Show would have found themselves in Third Place has Horrorwitz gotten his way. NBC would not have realize what just hit them until it was too late. I applaud Matt for his actions last year in saving his Co-workers Job. he knew that would be catastrophic from a mile away and knew he would likely get the blame again and would be even more unfairly criticize Does the show still need to make some changes? Yes but mainly small ones. Mostly with content then anything. They don't need any changes to the cast especially nothing drastic like that. But I think they can lose a couple. Carson is hardly there anymore. The last thing the show need is any more major cast changes especially with it man four where it now showing stability
  19. Never thought about that. That could be.
  20. No that was Ryan Seacrest
  21. I have read that. but clearly he could do both TODAY Show and MSNBC Primetime Show. I think there is to many people on the show as it is. They could lose a few hosts. As long as they don't mess with the main four or Willie
  22. So who job will Billy Bush take on the 3rd Hour? You know someone about lose their Job. You can't have Five hosts on the 9am Hour. NBC is looking to add Billy to the TODAY Show and lead the Third Hour. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/how-nbcs-today-spoiled-abcs-831919
  23. I do not like the camera setup when they are all setting at the desk. I find it annoying you can only see two anchors and the other you only see the back of and then the camera does circle thing. I know CBS does a similar thing but their desk is larger and is shaped differently so it will work. I don't know who idea that was but I am surprise Deborah and Andy supported that move.
  24. What exactly is CBS This Morning Bench of successors? at ABC Robin top substitutes are Lara, Amy and Elizabeth at NBC Savannah is Natalie, Hoda and Tamron. So what is Norah? Would be her Top three Successors?
