Former Live with Regis & Kathie Lee star Kathie Lee Gifford is going to guest host the fourth hour of NBC's Today Show tomorrow.
As I mentioned before, I'm not a big fan of any morning show having a fourth hour. Even if they brought back Breakfast Time I'd say that two hours was enough. And just the fact they're now getting "guest hosts" proves how trivial the fourth hour really is. But isn't the third hour mostly cooking, celebs, and fashion tips too? What's the fourth hour, just all the ladies (Ann Curry, Natalie Morales, and Hoda Kotb) having pillow fights with each other while Al Roker watches? Let's just hope Kathie Lee doesn't sing.
NBC's press release is kind of odd. It says that this appearance "will mark the first time she has co-hosted the fourth hour of Today." Has she co-hosted any of the other three hours of the show?

It looks like NBC Today Show could find someone much better than Kathie Lee Gifford to host the show. PUHLEESE!!!!
Also, I miss Stone Phillips. Why didn't you let Ann Curry go instead of Stone. I loved him.
Thanks,

I skimmed the front page and saw ladies pillow fighting. Damn you. I was about to program my dvr for the Today Show. I thought there was going to be a reason to watch Today.

I blame the strike. Just give the writers a piece of the pie, dammit!
