Morning Joe Anyone?

    Even more obnoxious on the radio, than on the tube . . . but shit sells.

    For morning TV, it's the best show out there -- especially if you're a political junkie like me.

    I always like Joe when he appeared on Politically Incorrect, but I didn't care much for Scarborough Country (always seemed like a Countdown repeat). But in the morning TV format, I think he flourishes. He seems to draw a pretty high caliber of guests, too.

    I enjoy it. Mika could stand to quit making faces at the camera while Scarborough is making salient points, though.
     
  4. Scarborough should stop making faces, period.
    Wait. He's not?
    My bad.

    The show would be much better without the vapid and near worthless insights of Mika.

    I have no idea what Willie Geist's qualifications are that make him suddenly worth watching, but I sort of enjoy him. Barnicle is an idiot.

    All in all it's a good show, and better than anything else on in the morning.

    Fenian, how about you just sleep in, or put on Mike and Mike?

    Which, I admit, I'm starting to watch as well.

    Never watched it when it was on NBC.
     
  8. Tip -- the show is heading into the post-Zoey's kidnapping lame-oid period. Doesn't regain its feet until the government shutdown and the Santos-Vinick campaign.

    Otherwise known as, Aaron Sorkin writes into a corner and then gets canned.

    God, it's awful for a while.

    I did appreciate the Santos-Vinick election episodes all the way to the inauguration. They ran those on Tuesday, although I did see them when they were on a while back.

    If you don't like this show as political shows go than we can't help you.

    You're stuck with C-Span.

    Mika is easy on the eyes, but I lose patience waiting for her to say something worthwhile.
