    I LOVED Family Ties and MJF. Cosby Show, F.T., and Cheers Thursday night. Good memories of high school and fun times.

    And Lauer is an insufferable bitch.

    WOW…Kate Middleton can count the freaking OLYMPICS as 29 appearances/ public service?

    With HM growing older and dear DoE hospitalized AGAIN at 91, it is truly a terrifying reality that the monarchy may fall victim to the younger members of the RF.

    If you could rule a monarchy on the strength of hair extensions and non-stop vacays…then the UK should be in capable hands.

    Dear LORD.

      With the queens death and Charle’s plans to already downsize the monarchy they might as well get rid of the royals altogether. Don’t get me wrong I love the queen but with all this planning to cut the princess royal (the hardest working of them all with the highest amount of time dedicated to charity), prince andrew and edward out it isn’t really fair. They were born to the monarch and I see no reason why they shouldn’t be allowed to be officially apart of the monarchy anymore. However there has been a whole bunch of complaining because Catherine is made to bow to princesses of the blood. It isn’t like the queen made the rules it is how it has always been done. Catherine barely does any engagements nor was she known to be a person who ever liked to work hard.. The public called her waity kaity for 7 years before will put a ring on her finger now they love her. The only person in that family that really deserves the respect and admiration is the princess royal. I never once heard a media report where she complained about being second fiddle to the medias fascination with Diana or even Sarah for a time, like Kate is towards having to bow to Alexandra of Kent and Beatrice and Eugenie. The Princess Royal is the highest of them all and she is humble. Too bad she couldn’t get the crown from Elizabeth. I guess what makes for a good queen is one who has been labeled a fashionista like Catherine. People pay no mind to the Princess Royal because she is dowdy

        I don’t like the idea of Princess Anne being pushed aside either. She goes about her business and doesn’t complain. I wonder about Edward and Sophie’s future. They haven’t worked in the public sector in a while. They’ve been working Royals. It does seem cruel to push them off the roster. I guess they can use their names to get jobs, but if they’re doing their part, I don’t see the problem.

        I just think neither William or Kate really want to do this grunt work. Showing up for galas and the Olympics is one thing but going to a small not-for profit to present a plaque is not exactly big time. It also irritates me that the older generation is doing all the work while the youngsters do very little…and they aren’t that young. 30 should be the age for Royal Work. I feel bad for Prince Philip. The man has given 65 years of his life to this work. Let him rest and indulge some of his own interests before he dies.

    Ya know, Hawkeye used to call Frank Burns “Ferret-face.” If ever there was a more appropriate heir to the title, it’s Lauer. For the life of me, I simply cannot fathom why NBC keeps the weasly character on the show — I loathe the guy, and it looks like a whole BUNCH of other folks do too. Oh, and I’m a guy — but I think it’s reasonable for me to add that I can’t believe for a minute that he’s drawing in female viewers…. just sayin’, ladies.

    i think matt is a big enough boy to withstand a little ribbing from the rokester…nobody knows all the reasons curry was let go, but there was probably more than one. imo she was the one that looked unprofessional on air. shunning his attempt to end the situation gracefully. crying and wishing she had had more time to prove herself etc etc. i understood it but it was hard to watch.

    Al Roker for President!! Americans adore the truth, therefore, we love Al Roker for being the only one to stand up for Ann Curry. Perhaps now, Pat Fili-Krushel, NBC’s newly hired Alpha Female over News, will go on and fire those two morons, Jim Bell and Steve Capus before they conspire against Al Roker and do him in. We love Al’s subconscious for slipping out right on time. Matt the Ratt Lauer and Snoozannah Guthrie should both be reassigned to Outer Mongolia!

    Sorry but since NBC has cancelled many of my shows and they did this to Ann Curry, I don’t watch anymore.

    I’ve never liked Matt Lauer, he always seemed like a gigantic prick and he behavior has confirmed it. I also can’t stand his hair, everyone acted like it was so sexy when he did that to himself and to me it just looked like he aged 30 yrs and not in a good way.

    Matt Lauer needs to watch his a$$.

    Up til now Lauer probably thought of himself as untouchable.

    If Al is now willing to essentially call him a snake on the set of Today then there might also be others who feel that Lauer is owed some payback.

    Read the article about the Duchess of Eyeliner. Apparently, every sport she watched at the Olympics counts as an event! That is the cheapest cop-out I’ve seen yet to make that useless woman seem like a hardworking royal.

    Kudos to Al for telling it like it is. I don’t really watch morning shows. I never have, and I don’t think I’m alone. What really bothers me about Anne Curry being fired, is that she was blamed for the ‘Today’ show’s bad ratings. How very sexist and scapegoat-ish of NBC. That makes sense. I’m sure the drop in ratings has nothing to do with Today’s lack of interesting topics, people watching cable, and the change in our culture that promotes lifestyle, self-help, and empowerment TV.

    Don’t forget that Lauer has cheated on his wife for years. He’s a balding has-been who “thinks who the hell he is” (a Bronxism I love).
