The Morning Show

Ann had to give up reading the news updates on The Morning Show when she took on the afternoon news presenting role which was vacated by Melissa Doyle, who moved to presenting Seven News Sydney on Friday and Saturday nights in the place of Chris Bath, who left Seven in mid-2015.

Otherwise, it would’ve been a long day for her.

And I believe this was her last Television appearance. I can’t recall her ever coming back.

Fun fact though, The Naomi Show (I believe it was titled) could have been commission instead of the The Morning Show back in 2007. I remember seeing a tapping of the show that even had a studio audience. It was recorded at BCM. Very similar format to Oprah.

She did pop up on Studio 10 in 2014, and I believe that is one of her most recent TV appearances.

Otherwise, her stint on TMS might’ve been her last appearance on Seven.

Was she still under contract in 2007 and 2008, as she seemed to be doing a lot for Seven still? IIRC DWTS, an ob doc series or narration, among the others mentioned and possibly more.

I think she still was on contract in 2007-2008. This would’ve been to also keep Nine from poaching her. Eddie McGuire stated (when he was CEO) he would have offered her a position at Nine. He was was amazed how Seven didn’t support her enough through the last 6 months on TT in 2006.

She narrated “Surf Patrol” in 2008, but much like Grant Bowler on Border Security, was never seen on air.

Larry “replacement” :astonished:

Hopefully De Ceglie can weed out this awful strategy. Really tarnishes the rest of the brand.

You either sacrifice the brand for clicks/digital revenue or you set up an outpost for it all under a new banner, but lose the ‘prestige’ of it being posted by 7News.

These replacement hosts look like a skit to me

When I first glanced at these pics I thought it was Todd Woodbridge and got confused, knowing he’s at Nine. :joy: (Then I scrolled up to read the real name)

Why the Human Nature guy? Was there a particular reason he was chosen?

Phil Burton, even mentioned above.

“…special celebrity co-host”

A familiar face, they thought he was capable, he was also available, the news story above mentioned some of his current activities - works to promote those? Who knows

I know who Phil is.

I hate to keep doing this, but the format of this edition is interesting. Live music, live audience and guest hosted by Kerri-Anne. It is far less rigid and far more fun than what it is now. If only this wasn’t so ‘special’.
