Today show

This morning was Meredith Vieira of the Today Show to last, and predictably was a retrospective clip reels and a lot of tears moments. But one thing that I thought the show was one of the cheesiest not control the entire segment of the program: a massive lip dub of Journey's "Do not Stop Believing. (I do not know what lip dub? Here is a good example. ) Vieira did not know what happened to his colleagues led to star in the studio today, along the producers, security, cameramen, reporters and all wearing matching "[heart] Meredith T-shirt, finally ending in the area of Rockefeller Center, where everyone is up to the final chorus. It was silly and sweet, and it is left sobbing Vieira.

But more than his luscious, but served as a powerful reminder that what you send to the show today. Now, place that rises Meredith Ann Curry Katie Couric, and will contribute more than the Good Morning America, ABC News to the people to check out this summer, as the moment to surge. They have a good line-up with George Stephanopoulos, Robin Roberts, Josh Elliot, and Sam Champion (and now perhaps Couric), and is now starting to move.

But look at all the beloved characters from NBC - Lester Holt, Kathie Lee Gifford, Hoda Kotb, Amy Robach, Al Roker and Natalie Morales, Willie Geist, Jenna Bush Hager, Savannah Guthrie, Jimmy Fallon, and others - running around, lol make, and really love each other and sent a signal that they are still the alpha dog. (It is also a reminder that the contracting authority to use real pop music during the segment, while the other morning shows do not). NBC's strange to develop sympathetic, relatable talent, and that a coherent, unified brand. This morning, made ​​sure that viewers were reminded of that rival, and the conversation was: Yeah, Meredith's mother left, the producers seemed to say, but the rest of the family is nothing to mess with.
