Well, well, well. Looks who's using gun control for a better image...

 

She's saying ALL the right things, but I don't believe for a second she means it or truly cares. Megyn, honey,  you're not that good of an actress. Her so-called impassioned speech was dead behind the eyes.

 

In any case, here it is.

I don't think switching Megyn out of morning TV will do the trick.  I mean, they could have her host "Dateline NBC" on Friday or Saturday nights and it would STILL bomb; and that's because no one outside of Fox News' loyal audience wants to see that woman doing anything.  She really belongs back on FNC, where the journalistic standards are nil; or on One America News or InfoWars.

Good question(s).

 

Granted, I'm not an expert OR psychic, but I think NBCU will eventually buy out Megyn's contract.  They've done it before with other personalities who've proven to be liabilities for their organization.  (Hi, Matt Lauer!)  I can't see them NOT doing it again.

 

As for the 9 am slot -- again, I could be wrong -- but, in retrospect, I've come to see Katie Couric's Olympics gig as a possible first step toward succeeding Megyn in that hour.  Katie's profile is higher than Megyn's; she's liked by a broader segment of the network's target audience (even when she makes the occasional, on-air gaffe, like that unfortunate comment about the Dutch being so good at skating because they have to skate to work everyday); and she'd be back under NBC's fold AND "Today"'s.

 

But, if Katie weren't to succeed Megyn in the 9 am slot, then NBCU would probably just raid from MSNBC's coffers, or CNBC's, or one of the MANY syndicated shows (like "Access Hollywood") they produce.

 

Or...they could just get Ryan Seacrest.

I’m assuming you mean Seacrest when the Idol reboot tanks and he’s no longer indentured to ABC?

 

Couric would be good, if she’s up for it. They could just put Sheinelle Jones and Al Roker back in place, which was working just fine, or, gasp, beg Tamron Hall to return (although they may have burned their bridges, but a sweet paycheck could soothe all of that).

 

Mary Carillo would be fun.

OR...he could do it IN ADDITION TO the "Idol" reboot, the radio stuff AND "Live with Kelly & Ryan."  Apparently, Ryan Seacrest can do it all.  (Not that he SHOULD do it all, or anything AT all, but you know what I'm saying.)

As someone who needs at least 7 hours of sleep to be semi-functional, I don’t know how he does it. You don’t even really have time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Dude is running from some deep mental trauma. But I digress...

 

I think the Megyn trouble has probably bought DAYS a few more years, but they really should be announcing that renewal soon.

    • This can be difficult for a soap to depict. So far she's only shown an interest in women. Will a man come into her life? If she commits to a male, there will be  backlash, but if it's women only, them where is the bi/queer aspect? Personally, I would have liked a single gay male on the show dealing with hook ups/relationships etc. Smitty/Martin married with kids is limiting in those terms.
    • Of course, how could I have forgotten those thrilling episodes depicting the fire? Also we had the GCAC rooftop set that came out every Summer. Moving on to Friday's episode. Victor is propped in his chair, answers his cell and tells the caller 'Let him in'. Seconds later Kyle enters. So does Victor have security on the front porch? It would have been better had Victor taken the call, and then said to himself 'Well Kyle, let's see what you have to say'and fade out. Next scene Kyle enters, indicating that the first call was from the Ranch entrance and time had passed . Nit picky but I get frustrated when they do stuff like that.
    • Jordan was gone from '87 to mid-'89. He left just weeks after Robert's late '86 return.

    • I don't think Chelsea has a true label just yet. She's just finding out she has an interest in women. I think the awkwardness is aligned with the character as we've seen. This is the fool who keeps filming her family when embarrassing things happen and live streaming it. I actually think it's refreshing she isn't just jumping into a relationship  and that they're playing the beats of her trying to figure out who she is.
    • Wow, do I agree with you. Chelsea is coming off as ridiculous. All she does is look for a woman to date while not caring about her business at all. That she's bi is great, but they're not writing her like she's bi. She seems to be lesbian. Yeah, I know -- "no labels." I just don't find the writing for her story to be anything other than awkward.   -- I hope we get some diagnosis finality with Bill's trip to the hospital. I don't want to see these trips to the ER every other day. -- Naomi is going to blame herself for Bill's health problems? GMAB. -- Ashley doesn't read as a real nurse in the slightest. -- Another day, another rinse and repeat conversation with Derek and Ashley. YAWN. -- Kat is making mistakes, but she's fun to watch and listen to, regardless. -- I still think the Joey/Vanessa/Doug gambling story sucks. I know Doug is deeply in debt, but I don't like him acting this meek and submissive.  -- I'm not sure what Joey's plan was from the beginning, or why he had to seduce Vanessa at all to get his way. I'm not sure what Vanessa ever saw in Joey -- why doesn't he give her the ick? -- I'm fine with a story where Doug and Vanessa take out Joey.  -- The fades to commercials were pretty bad today.
    •   Victoria's house (that she long ago lived in with Billy) burned down (I think Aunt Jordan set it ablaze?). Victoria briefly moved into the ranch after the fire, with Claire, Johnny and Katie, I think? Mariah and Tessa and baby Aria had been living in the tack house but they bought a house we've never seen and moved there. Victoria, Claire, and Cole then moved into the tack house as soon as Teriah left. I guess Victoria's children Johnny and Katie would live with Victoria at the tack house eventually? But Johnny and Katie went to boarding school during the school year. Not sure if we'll see Johnny and Katie for the summer vacation or where they would live.
    • Victoria’s previous house burned down.    And I know why characters frequent Crimson Lights 3 times a day for brownies, muffins and empty mugs:   THERE’S PCP IN EVERYTHING. 
    • Today was a good episode, and the week for that matter. I think they've also done a better job with background music. The scenes in todays episode weren't as silent as they usually are in the background and it was noticeable. I think the show has found its groove well and I'm still invested.
