If I was allowed to comment on SHARK's post, I'd ask what are you saying no to? Is she not 55? Would you not hit it? Alas I am not allowed to ask those things. |

Meredith Vieira chose to leave because her husband is sick.You are correct, BR. It didn't stop Meredith from going to London to co-host "Today" a few weeks ago when the show was on location for the Queen's Jubilee Celebration. There was some head-scratching in media circles when Ann Curry was conspicously absent. Besides, ratings have gone down on the whole since Curry replaced Vieira on "Today". |

I would rather Ann Curry over Robin Meed. |

NBC News had someone else who would've been better than Ann Curry on "Today". She's Amy Robach, who is now with ABC News. Amy would've been a better choice. |

Truth be told, Ann Curry was the news reader on "Today" and was passed over twice when NBC News was in the market for a female co-host on the morning news/talk show, first for Katie Couric & then Meredith Vieira before the network named Ann as Meredith's replacement last year. Ann does absolutely nothing for me, CH. As for Amy Robach, she & Jenna Wolfe split the weekend "Today" co-host duties the last 5 years with former CBS2 newsman and current "NBC Nightly News" anchor Lester Holt before Amy's own contract with NBC expired about a month ago. Robach had an emotional goodbye a few weeks ago on "Today". Amy's now with ABC News as a National Correspondent based in New York. My own opinion is that NBC News made a mistake in naming Curry as Vieira's replacement when they had someone not only easier on the eyes but a better replacement in-house with Robach on "Today". In recent weeks, "Today" has been in quite a dogfight with ABC News' "Good Morning America" in the morning news/talk wars. Ratings have actually gone down since Curry became co-host, and there have been weeks where "GMA" has actually beat "Today". That hasn't happened in 16 years. |

The Today Show is hot garbage no matter who hosts it. Who wants to start the day by watching a phalanx of screaming idiots being restrained by cops and guardrails? That's supposed to be something you work up to by like 3, 4 in the afternoon. Morning Edition ftw |

That's supposed to be something you work up to by like 3, 4 in the afternoon. Morning Edition ftw "Today" has been on the air since 1952, CH. I think they've been broadcasting from the ground floor at Rockefeller Center for I think over a decade now. The show draws quite a crowd regardless if the hosts are out there, or if there's a hot name in concert performing live on the plaza. The success of "Today" on the whole actually inspired NBC5 to open their own ground-level studio not far from their main home at NBC Tower downtown. I think the big difference is you don't have the screaming idiots at what they call Studio 5 when Daniella Guzman, Stefan Holt & meteorologist Andy Avalos are on the air before "Today" signs on at 7a everyday. |

I don't care if the Today Show predates Philo fucking Farnsworth, it's gonna be a cold day before I subject myself to the mind-numbing pap of network morning news. |

Look at the bright side, this frees up Ann to do scoreboards during middays. |
