The Fourth Hour

Tomorrow, Kathy Lee Gifford starts her tenure on the Fourth Hour (of the Today Show). She said that if you’re going to return television you might as well come back on the “mother of all television shows.” The Today Show is the “mother of all television shows,” but the fourth hour of the Today Show is the “third cousin twice removed of all television shows.” Being on the fourth hour of the Today Show is like being Bono’s plumber and saying you’re a member of U2. The only reason why the Today Show has a fourth hour is because NBC can make more money insulting us with idiotic cooking segments or fashion tips for fat housewives than they can with Super Password or that guy in the question mark suit yelling about all the money the government is giving away. Still, I’ll turn in to watch, should be a classic train wreck.
