I understand its the summer and people are on vacation and stuff but they really need to get their anchor teams stabilized. Have Rob and Erika anchored the noon together even twice? Hopefully by the fall they have permanant teams in place because they have the potential to have very strong anchor teams.

Erika has anchored both noon newscasts solo thus far this week and has said at the top she's "filling in for Rob Schmitt, who is off today."

 

That leads me to believe Rob will be anchoring solo at noon.

 

(BTW, according to his twitter feed Rob was off because it was his 30th birthday on Monday)

That's interesting because when Tom was still doing the noon an he was off and Erika would anchor the noon solo, not once did I ever her say "I'm Erika Tarantal in for Tom Llamas today" rather she would say "I'm Erika Tarantal Tom is off today". I hope she's a permanent on the noon show I think she does a great job anchoring during the week.

Does anyone know what there putting in the 2pm slot on wnbc in the fall cause I've been seeing promos for new seasons of Steve Harvey and Ellen at 3 and 4 premiering Sep. 9

Not sure, but when Meridith Vieria's talk show premiers I can see WNBC putting her show in the 2 PM timeslot.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a 4pm newscast, 3pm Ellen, 2pm Steve and put Meridith at 11am next year.

 

*Maybe*

Rob & Erika - Noon & 4

Tom & Shiba - 5

Chuck - 6 (eventually David)

Chuck & Shiba - 11 (eventually Tom & Shiba)

Exactly what I was thinking, It's a way to compete against the view since Barbara will be gone and get better ratings at 11am and give the Noon Newscast a better lead in.
