Today

I actually love the Today show...but I hardly ever watch it since they are constantly rushing through segments..its uncomfortable to watch Natalie and Matt along with the others rush through each story or segment..I feel yucky watching it and i know the guests do too...I would much prefer to have less stories or highlights rather than everyone feeling stressed and rushing..the Today show staff look like they aren't listening and are merely trying to get through their bit as quick ad possible..its awkward for all and I think i speak for everyone when I say.. its embarrassing for the guests and the hosts..I cringe whenever i see it happen which is often..please stop that..

Once the Today Show had merit with the likes of Ann Curry but it's become a hollow program more concerned about lame entertainment than meaningful news. I stopped watching. And once, Hoda Kotb was a valuable journalist fell into the trap of entertainment over news and subsequently left Today to devote her time to Hoda and Jenna another lame show that doesn't, however, claim to be anything else. I'm not even sure why I gave it 3 Stars. Maybe it was locality to what it once was.

I love to watch the show but find the talking all at the same time in a very loud voices obnoxious. The food shows are embarrassing for the person trying to show the food one is preparing, all chipping in and can hardly follow what is going on, do they need so many people at that time, just one would be better. Its so rude to all be talking at the same time and I just have to turn it off.

Just watch this show. They show very little news but jump into "feel good" stories after the first 20 minutes. Fake smiles, fake agendas etc... No more Afghanistan stories, Southern border stories etc... They show only what they want. The little boy who has a lemonade stand to make money for firefighters gets 4 full minutes, but human trafficking gets nothing. An old celebrity dies and they get 10 seconds of airtime, a Kardashian comes up with a new line of clothing...5 minutes of airtime. You are watching 4 hours with 95 minutes of commercials. Just time it. The cast are making 10's of millions of dollars per year, off of commercials while you blindly watch.

I too have been watching this news show forever but what has it become? Al Roker who I liked when he did the weather has become a screaming personality that has to shut up. His rants are intolerable and make me switch to another news channel. Additionally, when it's Hoda and Jennas turn, they talk nonsense and Jenna consistently over talks Hoda. Jenna needs to go... what does she contribute to the NEWS, which should be the focus of the show.

This is a sad commentary, but I am seriously considering switching my loyalty to another news channel. It's time....
