This. My wife and I watch the Today show most every morning and neither of us can stand Anne Curry. I would just cringe when she was trying to do "tough" interviews. They seemed so awkward and forced and I just felt uncomfortable during them.
Kelly Ripa, or play it safe with a Willow Bay type and try to hold on to number two. Try to mix in Kathy Griffin or some other comedienne out on the street weather segments, fake news commentary or something. Bartiromo for some kind of business news and Erin Andrews for sports.
Hoda Kotb would've been a better selection imo but hey more power to Savannah and the Today Show producers/NBC head honcho's.
I am in agreement in not trusting those with a gummy smile or someone with two first names, but i'm not seeing the abominable gummy smile with SG.
Calling the today show news is like calling Jay Leno comedy.. Again how would I know I like smelling women farts...
