Whose bright idea was it to have the Today Show on for 4 hours? When they went to 3 hours, it was too much, now it’s 4 hours of television time. Why? After 2 hours, the show is a snoozer. Heck, if you really wanna know, it should be cut down to an hour.

I mean I like Matt Lauer, Meredith Vierra, Ann Curry and Al Rocker, but collectively, they are duller than the shine on Flavor Flav’s grill. And if I’m not mistaken, at one time, Good Morning America was spanking them in the ratings. Gotta love the banter between Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts.

I grew up on the Today Show. I can even recall my mother getting me dressed for kindergarten as a kid and the Today Show would be on as I dressed, so I have a warm spot in my heart for that show. But they are working my nerves with this 4 hour time slot.

By the 3rd hour, the show looks like an upscale public access show, just searching for topics. “Is your foot fungus preventing you from finding a decent date? Coming up after the break, on the Today Show.” I don’t want to see them go out like that. Cut back those hours!
