I’m not watching Jenna and friends anymore. Hoda and Jenna were so good together. Unfortunately, without her, imo, the show doesn’t cut it. I wish it did. I’ve watched thistalk show for a zillion years, and I’m so disappointed. Would love to see Kathy Lee come back! Any chance of that?
A lot of people are saying that Jenna is loud and has no guard rails yet that is what makes it good. if you don't have a person willing to take risks then it would just be boring.
I think the 4th hour is for sure going through some change, Jenna and the viewers and the producers and everyone is still adapting to Hoda being gone. Since Hoda has been their from the start of the 4th hour this is a BIG change. and Jenna definitely seems a little uncomfortable. however We need to trust Jenna. yes Hoda and Jenna completed each other well but hopefully they can find someone to do the same. I don't like the hate that is going on about Jenna, because she has what it takes we just need to giver her time and trust!
i stopped watchin jenna and friends very boring
I can’t watch Jenna, she’s loud and rude! Get rid of 4th hour, not the same without Hoda.
PLEASE take Jenna OFF the show!! I am NOT watching anymore either her on it.
Not to pile on …but I will. What is NBC thinking by keeping Jenna as host! She is SO awful!!!! So immature and obnoxious - she is reflecting very poorly on NBC. She brings absolutely no value to the 4th hour.
Although I wasn’t a huge fan of Hodas - at least she put the time in over many years to learn how to report and interview.
Word is - she was hired because she’s Savannah’s ‘bestie’.
NBC you can do SO much better!
I love Craig on the 3rd hour in terms of his reporting. What I don't like about Craig is when I see him sneaking items from the today's deals table, as he's looking to see if the cameras are on him. Yes Craig, we see you sneakily putting items in your pockets. Additionally, he's the first one to rush to the food demo table to eat. What's happening here? He's eating before the guest can begin to start. It makes you wonder.
Now as for Jenna. I was never a fan of Gods and Jenna. In the beginning, it was Hoda, who talked over Jenna, and I was glad to see Jenna come into her own. Then there was a role reversal, and Jenna began this non-stop competitive game with Hoda. But yet, they complimented one another, when you could clearly see that they were competitive. As of now, I don't rush to tune into Jenna and Friend, especially since early on of Jenna and Friends, she continued to suggest and promote Scarlett Johansson as her preferred permanent co-host. I'm watching today, but I probably will not watch again.
I find Jenna and obnoxious. She talks over everyone and everything is about her. I've stopped watching.
I never thought NBC should keep Jenna. She is loud and hard to understand. She is not a journalist and does not possess the qualities to be an effective interviewer. I change channels when the 4th hour comes on. I just can’t stand the banter.
