I am convinced that meka is just a stooge, she will go with every position , she has no back bone or generic opinion, just nod and agree, what a waist of time.

MSNBC has a strong civil suit against whoever hired cHucKLeHeaD Mika. Why not just have a recording of her chiming in with an endless series of childish interuptions, “hhhmmm… yeeeah” Oh Boy.. Yes! Woow! Oh No.. HHhhmmmmm… Uh-Oh.. Right! hhhHHMMMM.. Oh no?” …As she poses over and over for the camera.. (Hey look at ME folks!)

Get Mika off the air….she is so banal and uninformed about what she’s reporting and who she’s interviewing it’s embarassing. She clearly has no idea about politics and yet they’ve cast her around the country with Joe Scarborough following the primaries. She sits there smarming, smiling and nodding apporval at herself in the camera and when she does pipe up it’s usually with a disarmingly dumb comment. She said Edwards would become a kingmaker for Clinton, and this morning told Axelrod ‘her sense’ is that the Republicans would prefer to run against Hillary than Obama (duh!). You can see Scarborough squirming in his seat…

MJ is an embarrassment to MSNBC due to Scarborough’s unprofessionalism. He makes every 3rd story about himself or his family, compulsively pokes fun at others, but whines when others criticize him (”it make my mother cry”) and spouts off incorrect information with abandon. He’s got the worse combination of narcissism and poor impulse control. How long with MSNBC put up with this buffoon?

i prefer MJ to the other two cable
morning shows. Mika B is about the
thruthiest chic on the tube. Joes a
bit of a dud for sure but he and Mika
balance eachother quite well.
i cant stand the 3 stooges on F&F’s.
CNN is def the most boring morning show
around.

Melanie your husband must be blind.
Mika is a fine looking lady and she is closer to 35 than 50.
Joe and Mika make a good balance and work well together.
Joes a GOP and Mika’s dad worked for Jimmy Carter.

Robin is the best of the group….little fast but that should settle with time. Rightwingnut Joe is just another poor attempt to steal Faux News viewers…

#20, I’d have to agree with you there, I mean, the new look for Robin is good but the speed is a little much to me, F&F has always been kind of the triplets who can’t stop making stupid remarks, and CNN itself has just been too bland to create a news program. None of them really catch my eye most of the time, and usually I’m not up to watch them on the west coast, so I usually just catch the first hour of CNN Newsroom before running out the door.

I guess John and Mike are Morning Joe’s two viewers. Glad they have some support because they are going to need it when radio icon, Don Imus, returns on 12/3. Mika is old - hot is not the word my husband has used to describe her…what is she, 45-50?

by: MikeG

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 20:44:50 +0000

I have DirecTV and already get RFD TV but I won’t be watching that old, obnoxious self centered jerk Imus on it.
Morning Joe’s a better show and John’s right Mika is hot and also a class act.

by: John B.

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 20:38:45 +0000

Goodbye and good riddance to Imus. Someone put the old man out to pasture Let him retire.
Morning Joe is a fun program to watch. Joe’s always has something interesting to say and Mika is a classy lady that really is hot.

I don’t think anything will ever fix the morning mess. At least with Imus they could guarantee that they would at least beat Headline News. Now they barely ever do.

MSNBC is just a mess.

Where are you hearing that, Melanie? That’s very interesting, because I thought it seemed like there was some sort of tension between those two recently. All the more reason not to like Joe, as far as I’m concerned.

If MSNBC is not going to go outside to find someone to host this mess, maybe they should try swapping Joe with Dan Abrams. I’ve never been a huge fan of Dan’s, but I think he might have better chemestry with Mika and Willie.

by: Melanie

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 18:52:14 +0000

Morning Joe is a snoozefest and I’m hearing Joe and Mika don’t even get along. Not a good sign if they’re already tense a few months in…

Christopher - Time Warner doesn’t carry it so we’re getting DirectTV.

Morning Joe is somewhat tolerable, but it still has a long way to go in my opinion, before it’s anything special. The ratings are also pretty bad for the show.

Too bad I don’t get RFD-TV. I have Comcast in NJ.

Imus in the Morning will be repeated from 6-9 stealing viewers from MSNBC yet again. Payback is a bitch.

Here’s a direct link to email your cable company to request RFD TV.

FREE IMUS!!!!!! IWANT MY RFD!!!!!

I have tried to watch MJ. He is a tedious interviewer. His show is boring, and uninspriing. It will never catch on, and after December 3rd, the ratings will drop further. Then, he will ALWAYS be in 4th place. I would love you to add Imus’ ratings on RFD-TV, as a comparison…would be interesing.

I honestly think the show HAS improved since the move and the on-air trio is growing on me. Used to watch Robin and Company, but CNN has screwed that up by speeding up the pace and trimming the personality factor. I’m liking Morning Joe these days and appreciate the fact they let interviews run a bit longer than most shows, if they’re interesting. The set is nice, graphics are great and the camera moves keep things interesting

That sounds like compelling TV, watching two boring people argue about who is more condescending. I’d rather pull out my eyelashes. It was nice to see Willie back on Tucker but the new guy is okay.

ThEir little spat.

by: Missy

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 15:11:06 +0000

I vowed never to watch MJ, but when flipping through channels Monday, I believe, Mika and Joe were going at it for a while. Joe said she was condescending, and it looked like a real serious run-in there for a while. Mika actually seemed to try to calm things down, but Scarborough would have gone at it with her. Thir little spat kept me watching, anyway!

“Morning Joe” is unwatchable….a low-quality borefest incapacitated by a dull, at times clueless host who pales in comparison to his predecessor, Don Imus.
It has zero zip, and the new 30 Rock location doesn’t change this…..the only positive is Willie Geist, but he cannot lift this mess out of its own muck.

The competition is laughable as well…all the more reason why MSNBC is showing off its renowned incompetence by foisting this 3 hour joke on its viewers…both of ‘em.

by: Rich

Spud: Talk to me buddy. It may be time to add RFD-TV to your list of stations. If it’s not news now…wait til your rating for dec 3 hit.

Joe who??????

I have missed Tucker and Willie, but nothing MSNBC has to offer is of interest to me. I will be tuned in to RFD-TV with millions of others as we try to wash the grime of the last few months off! Welcome back, Don and team. You have been sorely missed and have a lot of time to make up. You will now be in a great setting to point out manure where you find it. As for Newsweek and NBC types, that’s when I will go and fix my face for the day. I have much shopping to do with the companies who choose to buy ads on the Imus in the Morning show.

by: Bruce

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 13:53:10 +0000

First I am happy that RFD-TV picked up IMUS. Second, Willie Geist has been on Tucker’s show lately. Guess to boost his ratings.

And finally and most importantly. Nothing will help Joe Scarborough and Company. The Titanic has not hit the iceberg yet, but when it does on December 3rd it will only have 2 hours and 40 minutes to stay afloat. Ironically the Titanic sank on April 15th. Imus was fired on April 12th. But history is changing. “Morning Joe” sinks on December 3rd. Hope he has a life vest.

Of the three, MJ is the most watchable I think. F&F is too happy go lucky and CNN takes itself too seriously. That’s not to say its a great show, but it’s what I watch every morning because, to me, its the best of the choices out there.

by: Dave-Brentwood

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 13:19:04 +0000

The only way I would watch M.J. after December 03 is if Mika reads the news naked with a FedEx envelope on her head, ha!

by: chase

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 12:59:56 +0000

I watch when I can, and I do think its improved since moving to 30 rock. Willie outside with the tree, taking a shot at the whole green is universal week, was funny. And there is more room for guests going upstairs from the today show in the future. I liked imus, but morning joe is growing on me. It has potential, but a long way to go.

Morning Joe will never catch on. Never. Besides with Imus coming back on December 3rd on WABC and RFDtv, MSNBC can hang it up.
