Oh dear 
Here is a one-on-one interview with Kylie Gillies and Mel B. It shows she would have been more than capable of replacing Mel and is under-utilised on The Morning Show (I am not suggesting a change now):

They have the continuing Karl soap opera to thank for that, Lisa Wilkinson for leaving and Hugh Marks for not trying harder to get her to stay. Sunrise wins by default.

Still, they did a reasonable job throughout the year.

Canāt we just acknowledge that Today has always been offering a crap product. The ācontinuing Karl Soap Operaā wasnāt there 8 years ago when they were still loosing.

Who cares about eight years ago? Today has been competitive in recent years and now theyāre not. Sunrise isnāt offering a superior product. They both do pretty much the same thing and neither really distinguish themselves with standout, groundbreaking content. Sunrise wins because the on air team is more familiar to the audience and arenāt constantly mired in controversy.

Or as some might say it, a slightly less trashier show (though there isnāt that much difference) compared to Today.

They have slightly more engaging and relevant stories. One of their stand-outs is their ability to lure A-list guests too.

My point was that the Karls media attention is not the whole reason they are loosing (because it wasnāt there in the past) its a combination of various factors which have been mentioned above nowā¦
Today just feels staleā¦ Sunrise is lucky to have the Martin Place studio.

I agree. If they didnāt have that studio I imagine it would be a very different show and engagement.

Iām normally a Today viewer in the morning, but iāve gotten a bit sick of Today recently and now that we finally have 7HD, have decided to try watching Sunrise.
Iāve found Sunrise to be better than Today over the last week that iāve been tuning in.
Iāve enjoyed the presenting duo of Sam and Nat, with Angie doing the news, I wish this was the permanent setup!

I have done the exact same thing. Great chemistry all round.

Sam seems more relaxed while hosting with Nat, allowing her full potential to shine (hardly happens when hosting with Kochie).

By the looks of the extended guide the weekday edition of Sunrise will be extended to 10am on when there is a Cricket match scheduled.
Yesterday finished at 10am and itāll be the same today too.
