NBC: No Brain Cells Network?

Omgosh I love Kristen.  She’s so intelligent and very quick with questions.  She and Peter Alexander do such a wonderful job hosting Saturday Today.

When is Chuck leaving? I have excellent hearing.  But he's developed a very irritating habit of lowering his voice to almost a whisper at the end of sentences. Maybe he does this for dramatic effect but it's a PITA to understand the last few words.

Don't look now but Kristen Welker's debut episode of Meet the Press on Sunday features a pre taped interview with Trump.

This should please long time faithful viewers.

I didn't watch but wondered if she was better with follow up questions than Chuck ever was.

I didn't watch either, but I've read the answer is a firm "NO"

I didn't watch either, but I don't know why Kristen Welker thought this would be good for her career.

Maybe she had no choice.

I’m watching Meet the Press now, I DVR’d it because I love Kristen.  Hmm.  Well she did the best she could possibly do in my opinion with the interview. For the live stuff I think she was nervous which is normal.  She’s very intense but I think she will be a great moderator once she gets a little more comfortable.

I had high hopes for Kristen and Meet the Press but has been a mess. I actually miss Chuck Todd

Hmmm.. that's sayin' somethin'. She was supposed to be such a tough interviewer.

Why do the bone heads at NBC and CBS think Thanksgiving Day Parade viewers want to see talking heads and minor guest stars instead of the actual parade!!!  I'm going to have to turn it off before my mood turns.

[Phebemarie]

The parade has always been so commercial...but geez, I think they added the extra 30 minutes just to advertise even more.  I don't remember ever seeing a truck pull one of the floats in all the many, many years I've watched.
