MorningNews 1528 Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Thanks I was wondering how they handled it at 8am since I was out of the door by then. Yesterday Paula Farris read the news at 8 am and I assumed she was filling in for Amy but now I'm wondering if they did the same thing as they did today having George read them at 7 and a correspondent at 8.
24994J 5660 Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Robin Roberts was interviewed for 'Windy City Live' on WLS, and she revealed some interesting and unfortunate medical changes that she's faced SINCE her health setbacks. Not a part of the initial conversation, a post-interview compliment of Roberts' glasses led to this admission. This just proves that whether cancer or other problems, the personal struggle sometimes never goes away.
MorningNews 1528 Posted July 21, 2016 Posted July 21, 2016 Sooooo... I think I may be starting to see the point of everyone who said GMA maybe making a huge mistake by focusing on Michael Strahan. Though it's still yet to be seen how much the show will change with him at the helm I really just don't think he meshes well with anyone else besides Robin. Jesse Palmer is so much better with the team including George. Jesse could also be groomed for a larger role on the show one day where as I don't see Michael ever taking the reigns of the program. This is all coming to me while watching GMA regularly the past few weeks. That being said we have no idea who will be on the show in 5 years, but I doubt Robin and George stay around forever. ABC needs to start building up talent to replace them. 2
Eat News 4745 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 ABC needs to start building up talent to replace them. Keep an eye on KGO's Natasha Zouves. 3
24994J 5660 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 Keep an eye on KGO's Natasha Zouves. God help us. 1
jbnews 346 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 Wait a second. Michael is going to be the new anchor? God no. He has no journalism background. The only thing he knows how to do is throw a football and host a game show.
Eat News 4745 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 God help us. Pair her up with that Cheryl Scott.... Bwahaaaaa! 4

ABC needs to start building up talent to replace them. As a regular GMA viewer, I agree 100%. Jesse is more natural in that position. I can honestly see him in George's chair down the line, whereas, it's hard for me to picture what role Michael really fulfill on the show. Michael should have stayed with Kelly. It's so cringeworthy seeing him presenting and interacting with others on the show. As far as successors for Robin and George, I think Amy definitely should get the job whenever Robin decides to leave and I'd keep an eye on Dan Harris, Jesse Palmer, and TJ Holmes for George.
CircleSeven 1962 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 Pair her up with that Cheryl Scott.... Bwahaaaaa! .......that would a disaster.

Yeah just how bad he is has become more noticeable since they've had him on lately, he fumbles over everything and he's just not as quick as most other morning people tend to be. I feel like everyone else on the show cringes too watching Michael "do his thing" Hopefully they realize this before it's too late. Maybe Michael's prime time career takes off and that pulls him from GMA? As far as Robin's replacement, it's got to be Amy. Been a fan of hers since she was on WT, and the person she clicks with best on the show is Jesse. Jesse and Amy could be a really great anchor team, but so could Amy and TJ. Both those guys are really great. 1
mountainave 612 Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 I'll bet on Amy replacing Robin, and either Dan Harris or David Muir replacing George.
MorningNews 1528 Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Would David Muir move from the official flagship program of the network to GMA? (despite GMA sort of being the unofficial flagship) Also David isn't really that strong on GMA and never has been I remember going back to days where he filled in for Diane with Robin and he's not really morning show personality to me.

Agreed, but neither was George when he started and I think he has come around quite a bit.
Daybreak 292 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 I'm watching Jesse today on GMA and he would be perfect replacement for George. I think ABC f'ed up with hiring Michael. My dream team would be Amy, Jeff TJ Holmes (news reader) and Ginger and Sara Haines.

My dream team would be Amy, Jeff TJ Holmes (news reader) and Ginger and Sara Haines. No kidding!!! BIG TIME!!!! Forgive me but, Jeff? Who's he? I haven't been watching GMA or ABC News for that matter since Micheal was taken off LIVE. When is WISN's contract with ABC up? Might be time for a change.... 4
LoadStar 364 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 When is WISN's contract with ABC up? Might be time for a change.... I'm pretty sure that WISN is one of ABC's top stations. For a while, they were #1. I'm not sure they still are, but they're definitely up there. Additionally, Hearst has a particularly strong relationship with ABC. There's near zero chance of WISN switching to a different network, even if one were available. (Oh, and Michael didn't "get taken off" LIVE, he got a better job offer from the network and chose to leave.)

Daybreak 292 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Jesse, perhaps? Yes. I was was typing from my phone too fast. Hahahaha Sorry for the mix up
MorningNews 1528 Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Haha I figured that much, just wanted to mess with you a bit. And I completely agree, Jesse is almost like a breath of fresh air on that show. GMA needs a shake up and bringing in Michael ain't going to cut it. 1
24994J 5660 Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 Lara is going in for hip replacement surgery. The general recovery time is 4 to 6 weeks. Good luck to her, of course, but I wonder is there's ANY chance that she gets shelved/reassigned while she's gone...even though that move seems more like something out of the Today show playbook.

Daybreak 292 Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 This could be me over analyzing but David Muir looks annoyed co hosting GMA for the past few days. He comes off more dry than George which I never thought I'll see. It is understandable though as he is normally by himself on the evenings
