22 hours ago Yes, me too NYCRunner. It seems to be mostly on Mark's part, he sometimes awkwardly looks towards Gelman or Schully as if he's getting direction where before he was a very smooth-talker with no gaps or breaks in his delivery. Something is off and maybe it was just a week of Halloween prep or something else. Also with the two 'spats' they've shared with us I'm wondering if Gelman isn't prodding them to become the Bicker-Bickerson's and is encouraging their arguments. I have to say, Kelllmee really does seem to be annoyed that MARK CONSUELOS has yet to order correctly for her and Mark seems so in love with her (which I think is adorable, btw) that it all just rolls off his back. I will say though, he seemed annoyed with the story of him ripping the garage door off, rofl. I think that was a manly thing for him and he was embarrassed. Happy Halloween!!

Lots of different things happening this week on the show, lol. Kelllmeeee trying desperately to spit out a story of Lola moving to London, "As you all know, Lola is moving to London." Uh, no, I don't remember you telling us that, lol. If she did and I missed it, a thousand pardons Mrs. Consuelos. Mark tried desperately to pull the words out; he's a trooper. Also noticed he's got his own nervous tics that have seemed to surface this week while Kelllmeee tries to "ahh and ummm" her way through her stories; he's got nervous squinting/blinking. I've never noticed it before but this week it was very obvious, almost as obvious as Kellmeee's constant leg bouncing! Gelman, tie that leg down for heaven's sake!! And while you're at it, have her dress in sleeveless outfits so we don't have to watch her yank and pull at her sleeves for an hour, lol. Also, noticed since MARK CONSUELOS!!!! has taken the co-host seat that the audience has become somewhat rowdy, rofl. Lots of calling out and yelling to the hosts. Today I don't think Kelllmeee appreciated the woman yelling out to MARK CONSUELOS about his crooked finger, lol. She looked like she was ready to go at it with the lady. Trust me, I know these things, Jersey girl here, lol. Yesterday's chat with John Stamos who I love; Mark was basically non-existent during the interview and almost looked like he was pi$$ed about something. Then the big reveal about Tony Danza and Kelllmeee loved it, lol. Today's interview with the girl from SNL and it seemed MARK CONSUELOS was there to just sit and nod as he was with the JS interview. I wonder which Exec. Producer suggested MARK CONSUELOS stop taking over everything Live! Kellmeee, I'm looking at you!!

Based on the two podcasts I've listened to this seems to be accurate. I know Kelllmeee has always said she's nervous, anxious and doesn't like public speaking, which I kind of thought was bs, but I do think she has an issue with public speaking. Mindboggling inasmuch as she does it for a living, lol. I think it's probably the cameras, the audience and the fact that the show is basically unscripted, except for the news clippings and she is so unsure of herself because when she's bad, she's bad and I think she knows it. Everything about her body language says she's uncomfortable, those tightly crossed arms, her leg that never, never stops shaking, the endless pregnant pauses and stammering to spit out a few words. She has said on both these podcasts that Mark is so comfortable in his own skin and in any social situation--and it shows. I also think Mark knows how uncomfortable Kelllmeee is on the show and he feels for her. Sometimes the look on his face when she's struggling to get a word out is so telling and then I find he jumps in to either end the struggle to finish the story or he totally changes topic. Forgot to add in my other post that in the podcast Justin Long tells a story about KLG and the fact that she was so very generous in offering her Florida home for him to use and how her groundskeeper was so persistent in giving him strict rules for the property, jet skis, etc. Well, he forgot to lock up the jet skis, there was some wind damage and KLG was not happy with him even though he offered to pay for the damage. He further said he was invited on Live! with Reege and KLG, he was apprehensive about how it would go but KLG never mentioned the situation. I couldn't figure out if he was complimenting her for her generosity in offering him use of her compound or if he was criticizing her because she wasn't happy with the damage he caused. Problems of the rich and famous, lol.

I've always disliked those newspaper clippings, which you may remember, came on board when Mrs. Consuelos appeared on the scene all those years ago. She could not carry conversation with Reege and I guess Gelman thought he'd be topical in having them discuss current events. Only problem was and still is, current events in an elementary school is more interesting than their current clippings and discussion thereof, lol. Regarding Kelllmeeee's conversing skills, listen to this gem she dropped on Justin Long's podcast which I listened to last night. He very tactfully brought up Regis; and Kellmeee, rightly so, gave him props for being a master story-teller! But.....she then pats herself on her bony back by saying if there's anything she picked up from Reege, it was his ability "to weave" a story and she now regales guests at dinner parties with her fabulous stories!!! What?!?! She freely admitted, and rightly so, that her story-telling skills "on the show" aren't quite up to par but at parties, she's a real hoot and a half!! What in the fresh hell is she talking about?? Girlfriend can't weave a coherent story if her life depended on it. Regarding Kelllmeee's wardrobe, I believe she prefers the look of pencil skirts as it showcases her thinness. I also think her long-time stylist, Faith Cromas, is no longer associated with Live!

Just came to say the same thing NYCRunner. I thought they were both off, something seemed very odd with both of them. Kind of seemed that Kelllmeee was miffed about something and she was taking it out on Mark. She really rolled her eyes at one point, kind of disrespectful, when she challenged Mark about not not knowing where some place was because "you've been there, why are you acting like you don't know where it is?" (paraphrased, but that's what she meant.) Poor Mark just kind of went with it, I felt bad for him. Jada Pinkett Smith, only kept it on to see how much Kelllmeee would fawn all over her and she did not disappoint. She's NEVER read a book like Jada's before, 'everybody, run out and buy it!' says the twit that can't even speak. As for Jada, is she rewriting history? Now she thought the slap was some sort of skit? I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in Kellllmeee's dressing room after the interview to hear what she and Mark really thought about Jada, Will and the slap. Not a good show at all and although I am enjoying Mark the stumpers are getting a bit annoying with their untruths. So they are allowed to lie when they speak about the statement that is true? Doesn't make any sense and it's not fair, lol. This is the second caller that admitted to lying.

Same! I immediately thought they messed up when the topic came to Kelllmeee's meatloaf. If it truly was a gaffe, I wonder if they'll fix it and how would they give the caller another chance for the trip? Regarding the taped shows, I get that they'll only be Live! for three days, but do they have to resort to newspaper clippings for chat when it is a taped show? They live together, they have a family together, can't they think of other things to talk about for 15 minutes other than "belly-button debris?" Sometimes this show is so poorly produced.

Painful crapchat today with her stuttering and stammering with her news clipping, particularly the denim/jeans washing controversy. Even when she's reading, she cannot spit out the words! I just can't figure it out. On another note, something that makes me chuckle. For those of you that remember the Golden Age of Regis, do you all remember when our Reege would hold up the NY Post or another article or just bring up his sports talk which included football? Do you all remember how Kellllmeee would put on such a puss, would act so disinterested, would look to the other side, would do everything she could to show how disinterested she was?? Fast forward to her mortal beloved, MARK CONSUELOS!!!!!! and his incessant football/sports talk (which I don't mind, lol) and how full of glee she is?? My goodness, she's smiling, her little leg is bouncing up and down, she's looking at MARK!!!, she's looking at the audience, the little fella is soooooooo interested in sports talk! What a hoot!! These are the reasons I just can't stand her, lol. P.S. More lottery talk and her hoping to win, omg, she's sickening.

Poor Joaquin; it's like Mark's never attended a HS wrestling match, geesh! Edited to add, I do remember when this happened and I ripped him and Kelllmeee on this site. I'm guessing she was horrified that he reacted that way, like a nut! lol.

Thanks for the response NYCRunner. I still share all your thoughts about our girl, Kellllmeeeee, lol. What I found interesting about this podcast (which I most likely will never listen to again) is that for the first time she actually shared some real personal stories about herself and her life. For me, that is something she really has never done as the host on a talk show. I guess it was the fact that her kids were the interviewers so she had to answer but I totally get the vibe that was your takeway. Just curious, do you think her mortal beloved, MARK CONSUELOS!!!! shares those same snobish attributes? I always felt he did but yet I find myself thinking, "he seems like a really good guy." Thanks for the insight from your friend in the audience. I can imagine MARK CONSUELOS!!! is much more attractive in person and totally believe Kelllmeee is rail thin. I was in the audience many years ago when she was still with Michael Strahan, took a pic with her with my hand around her waist......omg, have never seen nor felt anyone that skinny--literally skin, bones, hair and makeup! And, btw, there was NO interaction with her and Strahan and she looked miserable. Thank you for the reminder about how awful she treated Regis, inexcusable as far as I'm concerned.

You are right NYCRunner, I forgot about that very awkward exchange in the beginning. Kelly was her Kellllmeee self opening the podcast, trying to be her funny, clever self -- and she wasn't, as she is so often times on Live! -- not funny, just awkward. I also think Lola was trying to go for the shock value to start the podcast. It did get better, imo. The kids asked questions that really did pull the curtain away from the woman we see daily on Live! who never, ever gives us a glimpse of what's underneath the veneer of Mrs. Consuelos. Some early dating experiences, some insight into her work ethic, chatting about how she knew she'd live in NYC one day, just a lot of stuff that showed her to really be a normal person, imo. I didn't finish listening, I want to go back and hear how it ends. I was in the middle of fixing dinner and my chicken needed all my attention, lol. If you finish it, let us know what you thought. Edited to add: Finished it last night and she did it again, lol. The kids turned the last questions over to Kelllmeee and she asked the most ridiculous question, imo, 'who's your favorite parent?' and of course Lola and Michael tried their best, but honestly, Kelllmeee is so darn juvenile. Also wanted to add Kellllmeee talks about Michael's girlfriend and how they love her and she's really a part of the family. Thought that was sweet; Michael really seems like a very kind soul, he was very appreciative of momma's approval.

Little bit off topic but I decided to listen to Kelllmeee's podcast with her two kids, Lola and Michael. What a difference in this venue for her ....I found her and her kids to be delightful! A huge difference between the stuttering, struggling to speak person she portrays in the morning to the glib, funny person on this particular podcast. She and her two kids shared some really cute stories and they came across as normal, nice people. Maybe it's the lack of cameras? An audience? Whatever it is, she was very likeable and that is huge coming from me, lol.

I've really been enjoying MARK CONSUELOS as the new co-host. He really is a natural conversationalist unlike his better half. It's so noticeable when she tries to tell a story or comment on one of his....my gosh, it takes her f o r e v e r to spit just one word out! The pauses, the 'ummms', I even feel bad for MARK CONSUELOS!!! because it IS his wife, she is the supposed star of the show, and it is just so obvious how lacking she is in the area of 'talking.' He seems very eager to do a great job which at times causes Kelly to step on his questions, stories and depending on her mood, she either steamrolls over him or acquiesces to him. Typical in today's chat that Kelly would want to lead with a news clipping; and surprise, surprise, it was all about a 'nude' show coming to TV. Her areas of interest seem to be very limited.

Oh yes they are!! Gelman, never one to let anything get by him, has parlayed that ridiculous game into "Stump Mark" complete with graphics, music and a new prize added to the mug. That's right, if you stump Mark, you get a "I stumped Mark" t-shirt with Mark's face on front and Kelllmeeee on the back jumping out of the mug. I swear she must be so pi$$ed that Mark has single-handedly taken the spotlight off of her and placed it squarely on his chiseled self.

So the new season is already in one week and once again it's a taped Friday show. I get that I guess that's the new norm for these two but I did get a chuckle when they sat down and Kelllmeee said words to the effect, 'wow, well, we made it through the first week of September." Ugh, no you didn't...you worked Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and on one of those days you worked for two hours instead of one, lol. But what I really came her to say is that Mark has come in hot, taking over crap chat, taking the lead in all things Live! and I think the little fella doesn't like it a bit!! lol It was either Wed. or Thurs. she made the comment, "I know you think you're in charge" (words to that effect) and Mark good humoredly laughed but it was shortly thereafter he was about to say something and he got a weird look on his face and just stopped in mid thought. Then the next day, Kelllmeee was in the middle of saying something with one of her pregnant pauses and Mark cut right in, changed the subject and she was left with finger pointed mid-air, mouth open and totally shut down. Needless to say, I loved it, lol. I do think Mark, like me, notices her pauses and he just jumps in to save the day, so to speak. He's done it a few times now and I do think Kelllllmeee isn't liking it too much. I will say they both look great from their vacay, Kelllmeee is blonder, tanner and probably skinnier too. Mark has a natural ability to tell a story and he's pretty funny to boot.

Just watching the tape from Monday's show and am wondering if Kelllmeeee's "on assignment" was getting fillers and/or other work done, lol. I realize it's most likely the magic of make-up, as she has claimed for years, but her face appears so much fuller and we can probably all agree it's not from food, lol.

Yes, I know today was pre-recorded, I meant moving forward with the actors' strike; will Kellmeeee and MARK CONSUELOS!!!!! honor the strike with next week's shows assuming they will be 'live.' And for sure they were a day late and a dollar short with 'french fry' day, lol.

I'm curious to see if Kelllmeeee and MARK CONSUELOS!!!! will be on the show now that SAG has decided to go on strike along with the writers. If that's the case, I guess production would just show re-runs? I also wonder what Kelllmeeee's "on assignment" was that would explain why she wasn't there Friday. Btw, I'd prefer Andy and Mark any day over Kellmee with Mark.

An actual "live" show today, lol. Gotta say, I'm so enjoying Mark, he's a natural conversationalist. Kelly, otoh, still has trouble connecting the dots. You can tell he adores her, he just sits and smiles as she tries to string a sentence together, lol.

Kellmeee is very thin, I thought the green dress looked awful on her, I'm guessing she's a size 000, lol. I have been enjoying Mark, I think he's found his groove. I just don't understand why it's so hard for Kelllmeee to speak. Even with Mark sitting next to her, it takes 10 minutes for her to spit out two sentences. What are all of her pauses for? Can she not think of her words? I just don't get it. I grin when Deja introduces them and she says ...."and MARK CONSUELOOOOS!!!!'

These two are just too much. Just when I'm starting to think things are really good (I am enjoying Mark, Kellllmeeee still can't speak) they pull their favors for friends card. In case anyone missed it, today's crap chat consisted of a full-blown commercial for good buddy, Andy Cohen's Vanderpump Rules show that airs tonight. Make no mistake, I will be watching it but for Kelllmeeee and MARK CONSUELOS!!! to go on and on ad nauseum about the show as well as Kelllmeeee's podcast, which in case anyone missed it, drops today, lol, was just too much. I'm surprised Gelman let them continue. Then MARK CONSUELOS starts the recap of the show and the whole Scandoval debacle and then we get to hear how the Consuelos kids feel about everything. And then MARK CONSUELOS, suave guy that he is, begins to give us the 3 cardinal rules of cheating men and the 'how and why' of how they get caught, much to the chagrin of Kelllmeeeee, lol. I wonder how the suits at Disney/ABC feel about the free advertisement for Bravo. I guess NBC felt pretty good about it though. These two are a hoot! P.S. You know I still abhor Kellllmeee's dancing out to her chair, cheeks puffed, lips pursed, arms in the air.....omg, enough already, lol.

Anyone else think it was strangely odd when Kellllmeee and MARK CONSUELOS!! discussed selfies and the kinds of people who take them?? I don't know how they kept a straight face. The both of them are the King and Queen of selfies and thirst traps. And guess what?? The people that take selfies are narcissists!! Can you imagine?? lol How Kellllmeeee said she rarely takes them and only takes pics of the family is beyond me! Most of their selfies are very sexual in nature or full of double entendre or they are exhibiting their fabulous bodies for everyone to admire. But no.....these two....no selfies for them! Narcissists, the both of them, straight from the horses' mouths, lol.

I have been enjoying Mark's stories too--because he is sharing their personal stories kind of like the way Reege did. I disagree that he's 'way' better than Ryan only because Ryan was very adept at story telling.....it was Kellllmee that was NOT a willing conversationalist with him, imo. With Mark, she is willing to talk and share things that she would never have even broached with Reege, Strahan or Ryan. And furthermore, when she does try and converse with Mark to add to his story, she still stammers, and stutters and says 'ahhhh' and 'ummmmm' so many times it makes me sick, lol. Mark has even filled in her blanks with the words she needs to say; I think it must be painful for him to watch his wife struggle to finish a thought and sentence. He has improved a hundred-fold, imo.

Hoping that Mr. and Mrs. Consuelos regale us with stories of the White House Correspondents Dinner they attended over the week-end. I'm getting the sense that the Mr. is more apt to share personal stories and the Mrs. is a bit hesitant. At least all of her stammering and 'ummms' and 'ahhhhs' would lead me to believe that. Then again, maybe it's a 'pre-recorded' segment as they may need an extra day to recuperate, lol.

Oh, you know Kelllmeee was definitely annoyed. She doesn't take criticism well and I really thought she'd address it on the show but maybe Gelman told her to keep her trap shut, lol. I have to hand it to them, they negotiated quite a deal....she has to work filming that awful show, Generation Gap, and her husband gets to miss work to tag along with her, lol. Why didn't he stay and host with Allie Wentworth or someone else that usually fills in for Kellllmeeee. And the crap chat has reached a new level of ridiculousness. It is so fake, so inauthentic. Every topic MARK CONSUELOS!!! brings up, Kellllmeee acts so surprised! Wait, aren't you husband and wife? Don't you two live together?? So MARK CONSUELOS!!!! shares the riveting news his allergies are non-existant and this is news to Kellllmeee?? I just can't with these two and Gelman is to blame just as much with those awful articles he places in front of them almost covering the whole desk. Here's a novel idea, why don't the both of you just 'talk' and not rely on ridiculous news articles placed in front of you. Gosh, Reege has to be doing 360's in his grave to see what 'host chat' has devolved into with these two bumblers. Pull the plug, pull the plug.....

Agree 100% about the peetering out part but she takes part of the blame as well...she's awful, they both are!
