Huh, wonder if Alec Baldwin will compute with audiences

[samintx]

-- "Alec Baldwin is set to host a new talk show titled 'Sundays with Alec Baldwin' on ABC." The network "will air a sneak peak of the new series immediately after the Academy Awards on Sunday night," and eight episodes will air later this year... (Variety)

.....saw that last night......don't find him appealing 'as a host'....on 'Match Game' reboot which he also produces, he isn't funny.....

.....he is better as actor......they had a new TV show written just for him and the network greenlit it to series right away but he pulled out [ changed his mind ] and then the network nixed it going to series.......they are still looking for a new star....

.....he was good on 30 Rock but as a 'host'.....he isn't very good [ IMHO ].......


....by the way Megyn Kelly's ratings for her hour of 'The Today Show' is dropping.....she has had number of awkward situations......and she doesn't seem comfortable in the 'friendly' morning show format.....it seems forced........

....a make-up artist that worked with her at Fox just came out saying that she was rude and demanding and lied and though she claims to be for the 'MeToo' movement.......it is just words and she doesn't really 'support' other women in the workplace.......so NBC gave her all this money and she sucks.....

He's had a PBS NPR radio show for a couple of years. I've never listened to it.

edit:My error. NPR show, not PBS.

[NewtonMP2100]

.......they said the show will be based on his podcast.......which apparently seems to be doing well

He was on NPR's The Delicious Dish using his pseudonym, Pete Schweddy.

I wouldn't put much faith in a lone employee from a competing network squeezing sour grapes.

[NewtonMP2100]

....but it starts with one....then the others come forward......so no I don't believe one completely but I file it away for future reference......

I thought he was moving to Canada when W. Bush was elected. Why is he still here??
