Geoff150 0 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I was wondering why he was off yesterday, he's on the Saturday Early Show. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
civic110 18 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I think he was on the Friday Early Show too. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-7528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
watsgood 0 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Anyone have an opinion on how you think he and she did on the Sat. morning show? I have mine. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-7544 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colortini 76 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Man, he must have some great friends at CBS! Either that or some incriminating evidence on someone higher up.

cbs2idiots 24 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I would be a person to bash Chris Wragge but to be honest he is really trying is best. Maybe the early show will grab him up sooner or later. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-7556 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetfan 0 Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 he's been doing the early show for the last month... he was in all last week and the paper said he'll be in all next week too... I got no problem with him.. no worse than anyone else at CBS Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-7560 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey 861 Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I thought he did a pretty good job. Â I miss Ira Joe a lot. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-7567 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff150 0 Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 I agree i think he did a good job. He has come a long way since he forst sat in the anchor chair. I also think the Early Show with its more fluffy style is more his strong suit than straight hard news. As long as they keep him away from Kristine he looks much better.

cbs2news 0 Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I would put Wragge with a veteran anchor like Cindy Hsu. Someone like her would make him a stronger anchor. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-7595 Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwertywcbs 0 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I would put Wragge with a veteran anchor like Cindy Hsu. Someone like her would make him a stronger anchor. Â Good idea... please lets ditch Kristine and bring Cindy back to her former stomping grounds of noon and 5pm. Â We've been so critical on Chris, but I completely forgot about Hannah Storm making the same transition from Sports to News that he did. Â Chris is pretty good on the Early Show.

jetfan 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Wragge co-hosted the Saturday Early Show again this past Saturday and I think they said at the end he was in again next weekend.... I know not many see it, but did anyone happen to see Wragge?... He was pretty good in my estimation, but that show needs help. Is Channel 2 gonna let him keep doing this and the Early Show?

Amra 171 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I don't know what will happen, he might get the spot, like Bill Weir on Sunday/Saturday GMA. And yes, Peter should really fire Friend and Johnson and bring back Cindy to Noon/5PM.

WCBSNewsFan 0 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I saw Wragge on the Saturday Early Show this week and thought he did a great job. He has great chemistry with Tracy Smith. I agree that he has come a long way since he started in the anchor chair. He is much better at noon solo than he is with Kristine Johnson at 5, so I also agree that they should drop Kristine! Cindy Hsu deserves to get her old slots of Noon and 5 back, and I think she and Chris might actually make a great pair and would be a great secondary team to Dana and Jim.

jetfan 0 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 he filled in for russ mitchell on the early show again today... they are using him alot. Ch 2 had him on the air all day as well with all thier special reports on the terror arrests.

Ch 2 had him on the air all day as well with all thier special reports on the terror arrests. He's not filling in for Russ Mitchell. Russ left and works on the weekday Early Show. I somehow suspect that these might tryouts for a permanent replacement Oops i just noticed the date of your post, and yeah if its the week day version he's filling in.

njlady 1 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 I am watching now and I think he is doing a good job - he seems comfortable in the relaxed Saturday morning atmosphere. And Ira Joe is on also!

Geoffrey 861 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 If Chris does move up to the network anytime soon, that probably means that Sean Hennessey gets to replace him...

jetfan 0 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Sean Hennessey?.. please, the only thing that makes him look good is the boob sitting next to him. I have never seen anyone quite as stiff at Garcia in a morning setting. Wragge did well again today, watched the second hour of the show, looks like CBS likes him, they've been using him enough. Is this good for CH 2? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-10177 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amra 171 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 No, it would be bad for CBS 2, as they are promoting a lot Chris & Kristine. I hope somebody else than Sean Hennesey gets the Noon/5PM slot, somebody like Brendan Keefe. And dump Kristine, she is itchy bitchy Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-10178 Share on other sites More sharing options...
budtkaboy2000 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 He would still be able to do both his weekday work at Channel 2 and the Saturday Early Show. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-10182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBS2HD 1 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 That would show he has initiative. He really is one of the hardest working anchors in the city. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/936-chris-wragge/#findComment-10184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
