SunnyBeBe January 30, 2018 Share January 30, 2018 I won't miss her, ecause I haven't really watched much of Megyn. There are just a few shows that I watch on NBC. What a touching story about Richard Engel's son. That's a lot to deal with. Dad is obviously needed at home, but, must maintain employment for the insurance......God bless them. 1 Link to comment

Years (20+) ago, I worked at a group home for children. There was a young girl there with Rett Syndrome. She was wheelchair bound, all her needs had to be attended to, and she was on numerous medications. I remember that she had the most beautiful long brown hair and an amazing smile. It makes me sad to know that no progress seems to have been made toward a cure. Their son is a beautiful little boy. I wish them the best because I know what a hard road it must be for them.

orangekit January 31, 2018 Share January 31, 2018 I think Kathie Lee annoys Hoda more than she lets on. I think she likes Kathie Lee, but she also seems annoyed with her, and puts on the face bit toothy smile at times. When Kathie Lee spoke about Hoda going to the Bathroom with a ziplock bag when they were at Clive Davis's party, Hoda looked annoyed when she realized Kathie Lee was going to bring it up, but by the time KL turned her head to look at her, Hoda put on the most fake big grin! It was so funny. Hoda does seem to be beyond messy, she seems to be gross with her purse, dressing room and house. And what person brings their make- up in a ziplock bag? Weird! You don't need to spend a fortune on a purse or a makeup bag, but talk about tacky! When she talks about not even closing cabinet doors, and how messy her apartment is, I wonder how gross and dirty it is too. She has a dog running around, and now a baby. I would worry about being that messy with a baby crawling or walking around. And sometimes, it looks like the baby looks disheveled and messy all the time. It's a good thing the do Hoda's hair and dress her for the camera! 3 Link to comment
Mrsjumbo January 31, 2018 Share January 31, 2018 I know a little girl with Rett’s syndrome. She is now walking with a walker & can talk with an assisted device. There is always hope! i hope in my lifetime they will find cures for conditions like this & autism. We’ve had a long, long road with our son, & are lucky in that he is higher functioning now. Wishing the Engels strength to cope with it, & happy they are celebrating the little “inch-stones!” I think Hoda is very lucky she’s got her mom to pick out her clothes for her & a makeup & hair team to help her out, & enough money that she doesn’t have to cook or clean. If she was an average schmoe I think she’d be a mess! 10 Link to comment

When she was living solo and *only* making a million or so, it really only affected her. I suspect that her new live-in BF has improved the situation somewhat. Plus, while I haven't heard specifics, but would be stunned if she doesn't have significant Nanny Help. Those two factors can only go so far though. Some people thrive in a clutter. KLG isn't that way and has had live-in staff to help organize her life since the days of Cody House and Cassidy Place. Her indentured servant Christine has been with her since she was Cody's nanny (?). That's a quarter century. And there is a staff in Newport at her estate to keep things all nice and tidy. It probably helps that KLG seems to thrive on order and precision and is, bottom line, a Neat Freak. Now that Hoda is making more money than she ever imagined was possible, she can afford a good staff to keep her home and workplace organized. I don't see disdain when she looks at KLG. Like most friendships, there are lines that can't be crossed, and also lines that are crossed with regularity and allowed because of the friendship. When she is doing her job, Hoda seems confident and in control. Outside of when that red camera light is on her, she seems very insecure and wondrous. How many times has she marvelled at KLG simply pointing out ways to be courteous and respectful. Or how KLG handles social situations. Hoda readily admits how she is a lousy party guest, and so insecure that she rented a storage location simply to hold the priceless (?) painting that KLG gave her instead of letting KLG know it wasn't her style. KLG may only be a decade or so older than Hoda, but she has been a rich celebrity for almost three decades (and married to an even more famous, more rich celebrity for a chunk of that). Hoda still can't believe she is now one. 2 Link to comment

Do they get featured in the tabloids besides brief mentions? They're too lowkey to warrant much mention beyond the causes they're promoting. Those heels Sheinelle was wearing during her Price is Right segment looked really high. I know she's a tiny little thing, but damn, how can she walk in them. That Price is Right producer that was interviewed said potential contestants have to maintain a high level of excitement the whole show or they won't be called down. That explains so much about that show. Link to comment

I was just looking at Olympic pictures on Instagram, she is always smiling with her mouth open and her teeth showing to the extreme. It just looks overdone and phony . 9 Link to comment
gnushell February 17, 2018 Share February 17, 2018 I have to admit that I'm enjoying the KLG 4th hour with the live audience. Today's show with Sheinelle Jones was really funny. KLG is actually good getting laughs and the show is lively and not stale. 1 Link to comment

larsonb February 18, 2018 Share February 18, 2018 Hoda and Savannah are posting pictures on Instagram. They had silly glasses on and Hoda’s mouth was in a huge wide open smile. A few people made funny comments about her constantly smiling like that . It was funny . i think Holda is much more relatable than Kathie Lee , but both of them are annoying lately . Kathie Lee with her holy holy persona, preaching and religious songs . Blech Hoda is now getting almost as annoying with Kathie Lee with her constant talk about her baby. I’m sure she’s very happy, but turning everything into a “deep” moment is nauseating! At one point Hoda turned her kid crapping her diaper on a plane and smelling up the cabin into some deep experience. I am sure the passengers smelling a dirty , crappy diaper in a closed cabin we’re not happy that stupid Hoda didn’t bring a extra diapers . So gross ! Hoda also thinks that everyone finds her baby as cute and fascinating as she does , and we don’t ! I think it’s natural for a parent to find everything their baby does as amazing, but babbling on and on a tv show constantly about a baby who is doing nothing any other baby hasn’t done, is as bad as a parent showing or posting non stop pictures of their kids ! No one cars that much, and it’s boring and she is now annoying . . 7 Link to comment
goldenpuppy February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 I am following Today for Olympic updates on Instagram, and there are almost daily open mouth, or stupid, over the top grin , pictures from Hoda ! Shs looks stupid, then again , after hearing her speak without a script , I think she isn’t too bright ! The baby talk from all of the host is just too much. Today Jenna had her annoying child on the show saying “mommy has a cat”, repeatedly! Finally someone took the kid out of the studio . I love kids but babies are cute for only so long on camera. Also, talking about everyday about a baby is so dull, unless you are the parent or grandparent! No one cares about every little milestone and your deep thoughts if you kid poops or smiles ! Let’s face it , babies do not do much except sleep, poop and cry for the most part . The Live audience is annoying at times . People screaming over nothing is tiring . 6 Link to comment
BuckeyeLou February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 Jenna's little girls are cute, but having them sitting on Mommy's lap while she is trying to talk to KLG was a bit much! And KLG was trying to be polite but I don't think she was too happy with Poppy yelling "My Mommy has a cat" a hundred times, lol. Henry & the Nanny were sitting in the front row, but a cameraman came down & took the child away! 2 Link to comment
CatsAndMoreCats February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 (edited) The Jenna and KLG show has been over for hours. And yet, I still cannot fathom what producer's playbook said, "Yeah: GUARANTEED RATINGS if you put two noisy, undisciplined rug rats on the show." Sure, it's an off-day from school. But I will NEVER believe that the parents had no alternative to dragging these two to the studio. This is a network television program for God's sake. I'll watch Romper Room if I want to see/hear the kind of nonsense that went on for the first ten minutes. Edited February 20, 2018 by CatsAndMoreCats 4 Link to comment

orangekit February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 Between the overdone plastic surgery and the fact KL seems to be starving herself, she looks awful . She needs to lay off the dermatologist “treatments” and eat something ! Jenna’s kids were cute but annoying ! I laughed when her older daughter misspelled cat and she said she got her her husband’s IQ! I like Jenna, and right now I’d take her dad over #45 disgracing the office , but it’s not like she or her dad are brain trusts either ! Apparently Hoda with her giant , open mouth grins is giving Olympic athletes the “Hoda Hug ”, whatever that is ! I am sure still will be subjected to her reunion moments with Haley Joy, and if that baby farts, it will be a deep moment we all have to hear about for days ! 7 Link to comment

snowydaze February 21, 2018 Share February 21, 2018 I feel weird even saying that someone's smile grates on my nerves, but Hoda's does! For me, it's hard to really dislike Hoda, because she seems like a good person, but I find myself constantly annoyed when I see her picture or see her on screen lately. I just can not stand a constant huge, toothy, smile, and sometimes with the open mouth all the time. I am not sure why it bugs me, I am thinking that it doesn't look real, because no one is that happy happy all the time. It just looks fake at times, and it's weird looking. Seriously - close your big mouth! I guess Hoda fits the trend of woman needing to not appear to intelligent, so they are not threatening. It sad because women used to try to dress professionally and show intelligence. I get that women do not need to be all dressed in male looking suits to be professional, but wearing skirts and dresses that show your spanks, and no sleeves when it's 10 degrees outside , is just odd. Men wear suits and ties, and the women were clothing that looks like they are going to the beach or a party. I am not a prude, I don't care if someone does that on the 4th hour of Today, but it seems like women are almost making themselves look less threatening by wearing party dresses and no sleeves while reading the news. Then again again, the "news" is not news anymore after a few serious headlines. The first hour of Today always has some silly entertainment story which sounds like E network! Maybe I am off base here, but I am around Hoda's age, and I remember when women tried hard to be taken seriously, and would not act like a ditzy thing while reading the news. Now it's like they act stupid with the "whaaaat", or other dumb things, that make them come across like high school girls. I think Hoda is so well liked because she is non threatening, most of the time only partially informed, and also immature at times. It's too bad this is the trend but I guess this is the way things are going. 7 Link to comment

Even though I'm a die-hard atheist, I understand the relationship that she and her ilk had with him. For what it's worth, he did insist upon integrated services and was a friend of Martin Luther King, Jr's. Now as a proud member of the LGBTQ community I have a hard time abiding his stance regarding marriage equality and more. That all said, she should keep her proselytizing to minimum. 5 Link to comment

Wings February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 Kathy Lee is very thin but she still should not wear sleeveless dresses. She needs a new hair style and a make down on her face, too. I don’t believe you have to have short hair when you are older, it is not about that. Almost every teen and 20 something has extensions and the same style. There are many good styles that are more current than that! Start with shoulder length. Meryl Streep and Helen Miren look fabulous, she needs a new stylist. 4 Link to comment
