For all those “Today Show” fans that can’t seem to get enough of NBC’s popular show, this weeks announcement that they are going to add a fourth hour should be welcome news. I do though; have a couple of questions… Who the heck has time to watch a four hour program every morning, particularly when it seems to spend the majority of its time on medical subjects, with a liberal dose of cooking and shopping fluff thrown in? And even I have noticed the odd few times I’ve seen glimpses of the third hour, all the mainstream presenters start disappearing, which as they all have been in makeup and hairdressing since 3.00 AM is no surprise. I guess the fourth hour will be turned over to Dr. Nancy Snyderman who will talk about the dangers of fatty foods, drinking more than five gallons of wine a day, staying out in the sun more than sixty seconds a month, and whatever else is the “Medical Panic du Jour!” Or maybe, when they finally pull the plug on "Perky" Katie Couric’s disastrous fore into CBS Network news, she could come back and do the final hour for a reduced salary of $5 million a week!

Is that "Perky" enough for you?
Popular NBC "Today Show?" Not in this cowboys bunk house. The Today show may as well add another hour of fluff, NBC News has enough fluff to throw in the direction of this morning waste of time. They can now compete on a par with the Food Channel. Fluff has become NBC's general programming all day.
