  1. I see they mention Daniel Rosen in the article. He was one of the people who tried to replace Rod Roddy on TPIR, and wasn't well-received. Didn't know he also announced that version of Candid Camera as well.
  2. I was totally shocked by the news that Jerry has passed. No matter what you thought of his show, he was a legend for sure in Daytime TV. He hosted TPIR Live in Toledo a few years back. He was OK but you could tell he was there for the paycheck. Can't believe all the TV legends that have passed since the start of this decade, Regis, Alex Trebek, Larry King, and now Jerry. Protect Maury, Bob Barker, Pat Sajak, Judge Judy, Dan Rather, and Tom Brokaw at all costs.
  3. I agree that they should've kept Robin. Morning Express tended to do better in the ratings than any of CNN"s morning shows for at least a decade. Robin and her staff all had great chemistry together and Morning Express has always had a loyal following.
  4. Interesting duo, although of course this isn't the first time Gayle's been paired up with an ex-athlete with Nate Burleson as one of her CBS Mornings co-hosts, so it might work here as well.
  5. I couldn't tell the changes myself.
  6. It looks like NewsMax is in another dispute, this time with Frontier. It apparently started earlier in the week.
  7. I suggested earlier on here that maybe Fox handle production of the People's Court as Harvey Levin has been involved since the current version debuted in 1997. Even though it's not OTA syndication, Amazon has been making progress with real live cases with Judy Justice and the upcoming Tribunal, with former Hot Bench Judges Tanya Acker and Patricia DiMango and Judge Judy's son, and the return of Bailiff Byrd. Other than that, no one seems to want to start a show with real people and cases with no script. And I think Byron started the trend of scripted court shows when America's Court with Judge Ross debuted back in 2011. I hope Mathis's and Millian's personalities are at least the same on the new shows.
  8. Nice to see they're both getting new shows. I think it will be weirder to me not seeing Marilyn on the People's Court. I'll miss so much of the elements People's Court had, such as the music, the iconic logo, the typewriter and gavel sound effects, and Curt Chaplin's deadpan introductions. Now I'm waiting to see if Byron brings back judges Joe Brown, Alex Ferrer or Lynn Toler back to Daytime TV. I just feel Byron's new shows won't be the same compared to WB's longrunners.
  9. Don's always struck me as a bit arrogant of times. I agree with his political opinions, but there was always something that rubbed me the wrong way. The fact they kept him and got rid of the likable and no baggage Robin Meade upset me in a way. Her ratings were always better than anything CNN's done with mornings over the past decade. If I was in Licht's shoes, I'd bring back Robin and the Morning Express crew, perhaps in a different place than Atlanta. CNN This Morning isn't bad, but the ratings won't increase until Don is fired or resigns at this point.
  10. My guess is WUPW picks it up. They've aired Mathis possibly since the original Judge Mathis aired in 1999. Wonder what this means as WB plans to carry the reruns of the original as well.
  11. Love Brendan doing Isles or TNT NHL broadcasts. We'll see how well he does on MLB broadcasts, as he's also the heir apparent for John Sterling. I thought Bennetti was a freelancer, kind of like how Kenny Albert is on multiple networks.
  12. Not that surprised. The show was just "There" for at least a few years now. It seems almost like a mutual decision on her part. The syndies keep dropping like flies.
  13. I wonder if Judge Mathis the original is still taping and that is why the case submission page is still up?
  14. Sounds like a waste of Mathis's talents. He sounds great with the real cases.
  15. I like Judge Mathis but not the biggest fan of Byron's shows. Are all they fake cases?
  16. I'm surprised Byron hasn't tried getting Judge Joe Brown a court show yet.
  17. I'm sure moving The People's Court would be great for Marilyn as it's slightly closer to Miami. As stated before, both Mathis and People's Court had other studios coproducing with Telepictures/WBTV. It's no different than one network or streaming service cancelling a show and another one picking it up. While syndication has had so many shakeups over the past few years, I don't think it's done yet as talk shows have been renewed, the most popular game shows will be on for a few more years, and sitcoms and dramas are still airing in reruns. I expected those to go first as they're available for on-demand viewing on streaming.
  18. If you read Media Matters, they often say that "News Side" personalities inject right wing opinion into their programs, like Bill Hemmer and John Roberts. Does Fox Business air any actual business shows anymore?
  19. I bet Mathis and Millian will both return as TV judges somewhere OTT., and possibly also appear as legal analysts on TV somewhere. They're too popular and too young to retire from broadcasting for too long. Another thought I had is since Harvey Levin is part of the People's Court, could Harvey find a way to have FOX take over rights for the show from WB just like he did for everything related to TMZ?
  20. This surprises me. Both shows are cheap to produce and have loyal audiences. I like Mathis's calmness and humor, and Judge Milian has always been great. Maybe Freevee can pick them up for new court shows. What's interesting is Judge Mathis and the People's Court have other production companies involved, which makes me wonder if they could find another partner to continue the shows. I feel like my childhood is slowly dying TV wise with all the cancellations of syndicated shows these past few years.
  21. In other syndicated news, Fox First Run renewed all their shows for next season, including You Bet Your Life, Pictionary. Divorce Court and Dish Nation. I don't think these shows will ever die.
  22. Dr. Drew had a CW daytime show that failed after a season or two in the early 2010's.
  23. He was hosting a LIve PD ripoff for Fox called First Responders Live a year before the pandemic. I'm not sure what he's doing now.
  24. Yeah, all 3 big broadcast news divisions, PBS, BBC World News, a cable news channel that's trying to go back to the center, one that's a slightly right-leaning but not nearly as extreme as Fox News, the Weather Channel, a business news channel that has a few right-leaning personalities, and a channel that's all staged court shows. I'm surprised they didn't actually list Fox News on there. By replacing Newsmax with the First, which has personalities like Bill O'Reilly and Buck Sexton, proves to me that they aren't censoring conservatives and right-wingers.
