Today

Plus the regular host changes

Absolutely makes a big difference, personally I think Jayne has slotted in with the team very well - but I think maybe one of the downfalls of the show is not having natural fill-in presenters when one of the main hosts are away.

IMO people like Charles Croucher, Amelia Adams are great journalists and no discredit to them - not really breakfast TV presenters yet.

Sylvia and Leila should be the main backups for Sarah.
Alex or DC for Karl

Not really a fan of Christine Ahern’s reporting this morning, unnecessarily in the thick of things with the protest in Melbourne and putting herself in the way with her cameraman and clear she has security with her etc.

I mean sure report on it, and get the footage you need but they seem be to keeping on this story for too long and giving these people too much airtime.

Screams very sensationalist from the show.

Edit: I thought it was over, but they wrapped coverage, went to a break and now we’re back there. Move on, seriously.

Today have some really creative shots and use of the soft set space lately, nice to see them trying new stuff - but their supers etc could really do with a massive update.

Possibly. But I’d reckon change clock times colour to blue not white. It’s hard to see.

I’d say remove the laptops from the desk, looks very 20 years ago. Thoughts?
