blanchowens June 13, 2014 Share June 13, 2014 I finally managed to kick the Today habit but just came on to say I really can't stand Al Roker. He's one of the big reasons I stopped watching. I could handle him in small doses doing the weather but he's inserted himself everywhere now, even the 1st half hour that used to be devoted to news. He thinks he's funny but he's not and I don't need loud, bombastic people in the morning, I prefer to ease into it not be hit in the face. I may stop in from time to time to reiterate how much I hate him lol. He's one of those you love to hate. 5 Link to comment
Ohwell June 15, 2014 Share June 15, 2014 I used to like Al when he was just doing the weather. Now, I can't stand the sight of him. 1 Link to comment
SeriousPurrs June 15, 2014 Share June 15, 2014 Suggestion for title: Al Roker: Ubiquitous Pain in the Ass Too mean? Or not mean enough? Link to comment
Ohwell June 15, 2014 Share June 15, 2014 Al Roker: Sharting Made Him a Pain in the Ass Link to comment
Rhondinella June 16, 2014 Author Share June 16, 2014 Eh, I'm thinking too mean. Maybe? Other thoughts? Link to comment
Ohwell June 16, 2014 Share June 16, 2014 Yeah, too mean, I guess.:) The only other thing I can think of is Al Roker: Weatherman Gone Wild. Link to comment
blanchowens June 16, 2014 Share June 16, 2014 (edited) Al Roker: Sharting Made Him a Pain in the Ass Love this...certainly not mean enough and really he did bring it on himself lol Edited June 16, 2014 by blanchowens Link to comment
SeriousPurrs June 16, 2014 Share June 16, 2014 Al Roker: Deborah's Too Good for Him I know, too mean again. But I like her. Al Roker: He Used to be Tolerable I have my nice button off, I guess. I know, too mean again. Link to comment
Rhondinella June 17, 2014 Author Share June 17, 2014 Good idea! I'm going with "Didn't He Used to Be Tolerable" just cause. 1 Link to comment
Kromm June 26, 2014 Share June 26, 2014 Back when Al was just a local weatherman (albeit in the biggest market in the world, New York) he was MORE than tolerable. Those days are long past. Link to comment
AntiBeeSpray December 12, 2014 Share December 12, 2014 I still love Al. So do I. He's a hard worker. And who doesn't have quirks? :P 1 Link to comment
Ohwell December 12, 2014 Share December 12, 2014 Al used to be one of my favorites; that is, until he started hamming it up too much. I have noticed that he seems to have calmed down over the past few weeks though. Maybe TPTB sat him down and had a nice talk with him. Link to comment
blanchowens January 14, 2015 Share January 14, 2015 So NBC says they won't show the Charlie Hebdo cover because they are not in the practice of airing things that will offend people/groups...but they continue to shove Al Roker down our throats. I wonder if I contact them to let them know how offended I am when I see him if they will remove him? He's offensive and annoying. Just like I promised I would drop in from time to time to reiterate how much I can't stand him. Carry on! Link to comment
Wings January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 No. That is my answer to the question in the title of this thread. :>) Link to comment
finnzup July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 So today Al Roker makes a tasteless joke about cannibalism while showing a picture of snow at Donner Pass?! How is this man who sharts in his pants at the White House (and talks about it!) still on national tv?!? 1 Link to comment
junemeatcleaver July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 I don't dislike Al, but he's veering into bumbling fool territory. 2 Link to comment
Wings September 28, 2015 Share September 28, 2015 I don't dislike Al, but he's veering into bumbling fool territory. No veering, he lives there. 1 Link to comment
HyeChaps January 9, 2017 Share January 9, 2017 It took looking at those old clips of Matt over the last 20 years to remember how very different Al's appearance used to be. 1 Link to comment

Titanoman June 6, 2019 Share June 6, 2019 Can't stand the idiot especially now that he's wearing those really stupid blue glasses. Something a 4 year old would wear. 3 Link to comment
Maryann Stevens July 12, 2019 Share July 12, 2019 Is there anyone else that can’t stand Al Roker, his humor, which is not funny, and his too tight sport coats? 3 Link to comment
OpalNightstream July 12, 2019 Share July 12, 2019 I don’t mind his on air personality. I just have a feeling he may not be very nice off air for some reason. He gives off a “dont you know who I am?!” Vibe. 3 Link to comment
Ohwell July 12, 2019 Share July 12, 2019 (edited) There's already an Al Roker thread.https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3564-al-roker-didnt-he-used-to-be-tolerable/?tab=comments#comment-5354483 Edited July 12, 2019 by Ohwell Link to comment
stacie296 February 10, 2022 Share February 10, 2022 I like Al as a person but he is definitely over the top these days. you can tell even the anchors are starting to feel it. I realize he is a theater guy and he also wants to be a standup comedian so it doesn’t totally surprise me that he feels so extra. But I think he needs to tone it down a couple clicks. Maybe it’s time for a focus group to see if others agree. Link to comment
