On The Record to get set adjustments…

GretaWire has details on the new set piece…

We do have news in our D.C. bureau for the show. Two nights ago I was shown the mock-up of our new desk on the D.C. set. We are changing the shape and enlarging the desktop so that from time to time we can have a third guest on the set with us. Currently, if we have three guests in D.C., we have to put one “out to pasture” in another studio. It might seem a simple task to add a third guest but believe it or not, it is not. It requires not only a new desk, new camera shots and angles, but also a re-lighting of the show. The desktop is not cheap either. I am told that we might get the desk within three weeks.

  1. Anybody else get the feeling in greta’s blogging, she’s doing nothing but griping. I mean she just seems like she’s boo hooing all the darn time.

  2. Does anyone really care about all this minutiae? Maybe my sister’s cousin’s best friend……

  3. Greta tends to give more behind the scenes info on FNC than just about anyone else. Some of it is interesting. Some of it isn’t. By the way “Me”, I don’t think this constitutes complaining…

  4. Hey look on the bright side, at least Greta and her guests can have more room for group therapy over the Natalee Holloway saga.

  5. “Let me be perfectly candid” Maybe that guy, who says that every five minutes, Ted Williams, could get a real job and they wouldln’t need an extra chair. Well, I shouldn’t complain, it beats Janie Weintraub….

  6. I second that Sophia about Jayne Weintraub. But does she really need 3 defense attorneys including herself on that show? Even the so-called “district attorney” Jim Hammer seems to be Greta’s lap dog.

  7. I am glad someone finally mentioned Ted Williams.
    I have long wondered what he is doing on this show.
    He has had a long tenure, and I don’t get it!

  8. Ted Williams has always creeped me out and rubbed me the wrong way with everything he says. How do you go from hunting criminals to defending them?
