I don't watch The Today Show but am curious how Meghan Kelly fits into the schedule? Is it Matt and Savannah from 7-9 then Meghan Kelly in a talk show format from 9-10 and then Hota/KLG?
I saw a clip yesterday of the Will & Grace interview and it looked like it was held on the regular Today set. Saw a clip of her today with Jane Fonda and it looked like a talk show set with a large audience.
I was wondering if Matt left? I checked the Today show website and he and Savannah are prominately featured on the top of the web page so I am not sure how MK fits in?

I can't answer your question but I just saw where she's already pissed off Debra Messing and Jane Fonda. She may not be on long...

I think she is on at 9 but I agree with alexa11, don't expect her to last too long. I tried her Sunday night show and the stories were has beens. She was actually good at Fox certainly compared to the others. I can see why she didn't want to stay there but she has not found her fit.

I never watched her at Fox so don't know anything about her other than the Debra Messing and Jane Fonda stuff from yesterday and today. Btw, I thought Jane Fonda did an outstanding job of redirecting the question. |

I have been in and out in the mornings this week but it seems that she is on from 9-10 and then Kathie Lee and Hoda are on as they were before. It used to be Tamron, Al and Dylan at 9:00, along with some other guests.
I probably won't be watching, in part due to principal. I don't think that she should have been offered that type of position if someone else that was there (Tamron, I believe) wanted to have that opportunity. I also hate Fox news and she seemed to be a big part of their network. But I am curious how she pissed off Jane Fonda and Debra Messing already.

Meghan made a terrible comment about somebody "turning gay" right before her interview with the cast of Will and Grace. Today, she wanted Jane Fonda to skip over plugging her new movie as Robert Redford is sitting next to her and go into detail about all the plastic surgery she has had....funny she didn't ask RR what he has done to maintain his looks. |

I'm sure NBC is paying her big bucks - what a waste of money. I don't think she'll last long, if the first two days that I saw are an indication of her hosting talents.

Good luck booking anyone in the future. John Oliver mocked the idea of her being a unifying force with this new show. |

I didn't realize this was a new show and for once in a long time I was home and flipped to her show and changed channel after 30 seconds.....

It has been a trainwreck. I watched because the Today Show is my background noise while I work. I had to do a doubletake at her gay comment and her Jane Fonda question. After that, I switched channels. Can't believe they gave her the slot. I'm hoping she's not around much. I don't like her format/interviewing skills at all.

I don't care for her overall. Not one particular thing, but an accumulation of her behaviors over time. They moved the Harry Connick, Jr's show from 4:00pm to 9:00am, so I will be watching him instead.

That's what I thought, too. You'd think she'd get the double standard here. |

I had the tv on this morning and her show popped on. Her opening monologue was so awful and cringeworthy that I turned the tv off after a few minutes. I don't see her lasting long.

I was starting to think maybe I was being petty by boycotting her due to her history with Fox. Not feeling guilty about that anymore. |

For me it's more about her history with FOX that gives me pause. I know we should all give her a chance, but I'm really not that interested. For the record I really like Tamron Hall and was sorry to see her leave NBC. They lost a good one.

It was rumored the reason Tamron left was because they announced this many months ago and she was pissed off to lose her spot so she just bounced. The other stuck around hoping to be absorbed somehow. Now they have 4 people on the couch which looks weird, instead of just Savannah and Matt at the table. Maybe they want to ease into "firing" Hoda, Jenna, Dylan and Shenelle. I haven't seen Kathie Lee in months is she gone? Is there a 10am slot for Hoda and Kathie?
Jane Fonda has aged beautifully! Other women her age their face clearly screams plastic surgery or fillers. Now I know Jane had to have done something she's 79 and no body fat which means she should have a wrinkled face, but the work she had done is completely flawless and natural. No one else in hollywood has achieved this. Well Martha Stewart looks incredible for 76 but she's average size and thus naturally has fat in her face to fill our wrinkles plus I read her beauty routine in a magazine once. Judi Dench is 81 and is beautiful as well but shows you what one looks like with no work done at all. Back to Jane, she was clearly there to promote a movie, this is not a magazine article that incompasses everything and it seemed like Megan was desperate for some soundbite and that made her show seem like trashy news.
When Fergie performed last week on the Today show Hoda asked her tons of questions about her music, then her last final question was "well I have to address this because it's been in the news but you seem to be doing really well with what's going on" (separation from husband) Fergie said "I have a lot of friends who support me" and that was the end of the conversation.
The Will and Grace cast looked squished on that tiny couch on what seemed like a talk show. It was awkward for her to bring a superfan on stage and make them hug him, but I could see Ellen doing something like that. I don't think it was that bad, surprised Debra responds to comments on instagram. lol
Jane is famous for exercising and keeping fit, She even released some new fitness videos a few years ago. So tell her she's aged beautiful and with strength to me would mean a nod to staying healthy, not going under the knife where Megan was leading to, which I think offended Jane.

I don't get her new program. She was doing hard hitting stories (actual news and politics) at Fox and now she's doing a talk show with the Kardashians as guests? Maybe the money is better, but the career progression is reverse. I've yet to see her new show, I usually just catch her at the end of Today before i leave for work.
I used to love watching Martha Stewart's talk show. She was so awkward speaking relatively unscripted and live. For some reason I loved that about her. Despite all the horrible things said about her by industry insiders (and family) i still love her and all her programs.

Wow, in just those few seconds I watched from the links above, this does not seem like a comfortable format for her.

Not a fan and haven't watched but did see the today show a little bit last week there were tons of ads or promotional clips of Megan Kelly trying to make her seem more likable . I saw a bit of Monday's show snd she seemed normal but didn't see the will and grace of Jane Fonda.
They were really pushing the show. I used to watch the Today show years ago but haven't watched much in recent years snd don't see myself going out if my way to start again. I haven't been a fan of the current lineup for a while snd don't see this change as anything better.

I got to meet her once at a cookbook signing at Sur La Table, she is gorgeous in person and very well put together. |
