The Morning Shows
-
Just perusing some viewer numbers over the last few months...The Today Show continues a long trend of losing viewers. Good Morning America is the leader with around 3M viewers. Third place is the CBS show.
Interesting, is that FOX and Friends, a cable show, is about 600,000 viewers behind CBS and has about half the viewership of Today.
Some questions...
- Ratings on Today are the worst since 1991. Why?
- What is the future for morning shows?
- What makes for a good morning show?
- Should FOX offer FOX and Friends to affiliates as standard programming?

Cartoons.
The only morning show I've ever enjoyed watching was on a Saturday when I was about 8 years old, and featured The Banana Splits. UH OH CHONGO!!!!

What makes for a good morning show?
At one time, like Phibes, it was cartoons.
Now it’s the Weather Channel.
Although, my teenage son has found a cable station that runs old 3 Stooges shorts. Nothing says Good Morning to start your retirement day like a bowl of Stooges.
