Kiran was sporting what my old buddy JStanio called Minnie Mouse legs. You know opaque black hose, can't see any definition. Which was a shame because she was showing a lot of leg today, well if you could see them that is. Juliet was in for Gretchen. Looked alright but I don't know what's up with her. She seems to be just kind of floundering around. Being President's Day and Nicole Pettalides didn't have to be at the exchange she was in the studio. I think FBN just has it wrong with regard to who is in studio and who is on the floor. Got more Kerri Lee for that dude who likes her. Hell, who doesn't?

The red was busting out today for Val's Day. Jamie bucked the trend with her reliable purple. I ain't go complaints about that. Kate Snow even decided not to wear boots for once. Once again, Kimberly G. was busting out in a red suit and fishnets. I gotta say though, I notice that her legs ain't exactly in the best of shape. I think she ought to do some calf raises and lunges to firm up those stems. She's starting to develop some mild cankleage and we can't have that.

Looks like they're keeping Amy and Jenna back in NYC during this Olympic run so the weekends won't be a total loss. But it won't be as good as normal for sure. But once again, Kimberly G. kicked it up a notch. She's going for broke and going all in. They appear to have the Kimberly chair on the Geraldo set now, just for the purposes of showing her off to the best effect. She's taken a little bit of time to get to the understanding of what her job is all about. I'm not sure where this is all taking her but I get the sensation that she is due for bigger things.

Kinda fell behind the last couple days. But not a whole lot worth mentioning for Friday. Kiran did have a nice sitdown.

Amy Robach Married Andrew Shue Last Weekend
So Amy Robach got married last weekend to washed-up actor Andrew Shue. Of course this is not her first marriage, as anyone who has watched on her on the Today show will know just about everything about her family because every single family member she has has been featured in a story. Whatever problems or issues caused her marriage to end, that's her personal business. That she has gotten re-married is great, I am sure the couple are quite happy and thrilled. What I object to is yet again another curious decision on the part of the Today show producers (and maybe even Robach at the time) to extensively feature her family in stories designed I believe primarily to sell her to viewers as a nice family woman with a handsome husband, two beautiful daughters, very youthful-looking parents, a spry looking grandmother, and a cousin Bob. (OK, I'm kidding about the cousin.) I think that these stories were cynically designed to counteract what may have been not-so-great ratings and perceptions of Amy as maybe a little icy and impersonal. Morning show anchors doing stories about their families is nothing new and all of them have done them. But in Amy's situation it was ridiculous. It seemed like every show when she first started anchoring had some story with her family in it. She took her daughters shopping. She and her husband took dancing lessons. She did a story about Minnesota, and guess what, her parents live there now. What a coincidence! But then they stopped. On or around the same time she was removed from the Sunday show and replaced by Jenna Wolfe. I supposed you could put 2 and 2 together and wonder if something was just not working for Amy. About a year ago, maybe sooner, maybe earlier (you can always go back and check the caps for sure) she stopped wearing her wedding ring. I could find out nothing about it. No mention of course was ever made about. Then she started wearing what appeared to be her ring again, but now I know that it was her engagement ring from the Shue.
I suppose the question to think about is whether it is OK for morning show anchors to be part of the story. I know that their aims and goals are different from strict journalists. But they still have a story to do, and they need to maintain some kind of objectivity and distance. But have those lines been completely erased? And is it also OK for an anchor to use/exploit their family for a story when times are good but to ignore it when times are not so good?

2/11 Caps
I'm seriously contemplating not recording the Today show for the next 2 weeks. I am almost certain there will be nothing worth capping. Unfortunately I don't know that the other networks are going to be any better. GMA is horrid unless there's a decent guest or the subs are in, and you never know about that. CBS seems very inconsistent and you never know from one day to the next what Maggie will wear. As she gets bigger and bigger her dress will almost certainly become more and more conservative. I have no idea about the recent ratings although I can probably find them easily. I can't possibly imagine that GMA is doing well in the ratings. I'm surprised that no one got caps of Mrs. George's strip/table dance/whatever for his birthday. She's always looked like she hasn't slept in 2 days but from the web video I saw, she looked even worse. I'm still puzzled by how they got married. She's a crazy comedic type and he's more boring than a bag of Wonder Bread.
Megyn had an extremely curious choice of outfit today. She flattered to deceive with a very highly slit dress that promised a lot but delivered little. The dress wasn't all that long, but the slit went practically to her left hip. Unfortunately, the combination of the desk, the camera being to her right and her seated position made it so you couldn't even tell the slit was there. In that case, what's the point of wearing something like that? Makes me wonder.
But to round out the night you had to give it up to Joy Philbin. Without a doubt a prime example of MILF/GMILF whatever. A lady of a certain age that you can appreciate simply for her looks, but she's got a great personality, she's a really good counterpart to Regis, and she has an amazing body and set of gams. American Pie may have popularized the whole MILF term (which frankly I think is a little overblown and crude) but she was personifying that whole concept well before. I suppose the term MILF has stuck, but really I don't think there's anything wrong with admiring and being attracted to women who are perhaps older than what you might otherwise be attracted to. To me, as long as they look good, are in decent shape, and healthy, why not? I think it's a wonderful thing to find an older woman who has defied the conventions and consequences of age. Now I think there's a big difference between defying that through artificial means versus living a healthy lifestyle, taking care of yourself and having a positive outlook. Nowadays we're seeing plenty of women who are still total foxes over the age of 40 and 50. Now do they get less abundant? Yeah, but for those that do make it, they can stand up against women half their age.

Well I got buried by the big snow part 2. Courtney Friel on Redeye. Not a whole lot really. Kiran seems to be back into her dark hose thing. I thought Megyn for some reason, today put it together better than she's done since she's debuted her show. I think the tight top was what did it, but I'm not sure. She just seemed overall to look better. She probably didn't but it just seemed that way.

Looks like one last day for Meredith in NY before she jets to Vancouver. The Martha vs. Megyn show continued again. I'd give Martha higher marks for the outfit but her continued love of the ultra-dark hose loses points. Megyn reverted back to her conservative look. Liz Claman in hose sitting. I think this look is better for her. Her bare legs are just too pale and shapeless otherwise. Her boobs make up for it, but probably not 'till it gets warmer. Only Go-Go is really showing anything up top nowadays. SI SI model Brooklyn Decker made the rounds. I guess it's kinda strange to cap a model wearing a dress albeit however short when you can get pics of her in much less clothing but there's something about her in a studio environment that is still hot. Jewel made a guest appearance on Lopez. He's continuing his non-stop Valentine's Day co-star guest appearances. At this rate it'll take 'till March to get everyone on.

Today show looks like it will suck for the next three weeks with the Olympics starting. They already have Natalie in Vancouver. Martha Mac is still brining it more than Megyn. The battle of the blondes continues. Megyn answered in return and was much better with a shorter pink dress. The desk is still not helping out a lot.

I'm not even gonna post anything for Saturday cuz it was kind of a lost day anyway. You all got the caps, check 'em out. Today had other women but none of that really mattered compared to Kimberly Guilfoyle in for Geraldo. I tell you what, if she continues to show what she showed, then she can be in for Geraldo en permanente. If a man don't get religion upon seeing that, then you must be an atheist. (You know, "Holy Shit!" "Oh my God!" "Jesus Christ!") KG has always not been shy to show what she's all about but recently she hasn't even been trying to pretend. You know SNL had a parody about hot blonde FOX news babes. Although you kinda wonder why it took them this long to do it. They could have done it at any point over the last 10 years. But with KG, maybe they ought to change that to hot brunette FOX news babes.

There was a red theme today because a lot of the newswomen wore red for National Wear Red Day or something, to raise awareness about heart disease in women. Or maybe they just wanted to get into the Valentine's Day mood one week early. I gotta say, Margaret B. continued her kinda underwhelming routine again. Why is is that when her subs are on you see more leg shots than with MB? I wonder. Also Megyn Kelly is continuing her tamer act. Not necessarily anything wrong with that but compared to her older days it's tame. One woman who ain't taming anything down is Rebecca Gomez who shows absolutely no regard for the weather. Of course she's not wearing that dress on the way to the Bull & Bear. They did a close up of her shoes and you could see her sock marks. Either she's gotta take those socks off earlier so her skin settles in or she gotta wear something different. But her cleavage kinda made up for it for sure.
I Got To You Guys, I Got To You! Why'd It Take So Long?
My buds over @ HDNC finally posted their response to me. Which is cool, I predicted it would happen, and pretty much exactly what would be written. But seriously you're right dudes, you and me are just on a different mission.
Normally I wouldn't give a crap about what you guys are doing but I was curious to see what other guys are doing. And listen, anyone who does this, I gotta give props to. No one's paying us to do this so it's all about the love. When you think about it, we're really all in the same game, just playing different positions. You guys wanna be buddy-buddy with the anchors, that's your job. I'm all about giving the peeps what they want. But here's another thing. If you're all concerned about your anchor buddies showing upskirts and downblouses and shit like that, then tell them not to do it! Until they stop I'll keep capping. My philosophy is that if it gets shown on a TV screen, it's fair game. Why shouldn't someone be able to get a screen cap of that? These women are entertainers. They're out there to show themselves off. If they don't like it, they can get a job in the real world. No one's ever complained to me, or anything. If they did, I would think they are way off base and have a lot more important things to worry about.
But I think my main goal was just to be able to get you guys to see my point that you can continue to do what you do but try to incorporate a little more of what I do. I don't really see how they are diametrically opposed. I know I harp about the multiple identical headshots but for me, I like to get my capping done quick. If one good cap can tell the story then I'd rather do that.
But let me finish with a couple points. You harp on about HD. Really who gives a shit? It's not about HD. It's about doing it. I used to cap off a frickin' VCR for crying out loud. But I did it, and that's how the first guys who started capping did it. Is HD a lot better looking now, yeah. But I would never discourage a guy from capping just because he doesn't have HD. It's not about getting whack off material. (Believe me, if I wanted to whack off, I got much better stuff.) It's about learning about the technology and how to use it. Capping HD is almost too easy now. Back in the day, there was a lot more tricks and fooling around you had to do. Boxes make it a lot easier now. I probably screwed myself for a couple years because I continued to cap analog off of the tuner and not the box. But hey I learned myself and now I'm better for it.
My other point is that I started doing this for the peeps and the boys. I filled in the gaps that other guys missed. So I continue to view what I do in that same regard. If people only saw what you guys cap, they are sometimes missing out. But I guess it's kinda like FNC and MSNBC. If you only watch one network, you ain't getting the whole story. Course, both nets would disagree, but they're supposed to.
But look, I've written a post almost long as yours. You can say that you got to me too. But I think this is it. I agree that we will agree to disagree. But I suppose we can respect each other on that. Maybe our boy Anchorman Ron B. can play ref here. He seems to be in the middle of us. Personally I think he's more on my side than yours, but that's just me.

Oh let's see. Natalie and Jenna were both pretty good, but Jenna still looks like she raided her mom's closet and is playing dress-up. I always get the feeling that the producers have to bribe her into dressing nice, whereas she'd rather slum it slacker-style. I hate to say this, but I'm almost beginning to enjoy when Margaret B. is off because I think her subs dress hotter and they show more leg than when MB is on. It's just funny how things change so quickly. I was pretty jazzed upon seeing MB get out of the CNBC stranglehold but now it is becoming obvious that Bloomberg has more stone-cold hotties than FBN and CNBC combined. CNBC is starting to look really old. Hell, Becky Quick is basically taking the whole winter off leg-wise. None of their girls that I would consider hot are really grade-A whereas Bloomberg has at least 5 if not more. Hasselrack continued a good showing and I'm sure she was especially delighted to be hanging out with Meghan McCain. They must be like two peas in a pod. I think she wanted to make out with her. Megyn was a little better today as she didn't do any of the stand-up intros, at least not that I saw. But she seems to have an aversion to crossing her legs now. I think motherhood has made her more beautiful. She still has the sharp features but they've been softened a tad. Also her hair is quite as golden as before. She looks facially even hotter but she's just toned down the dress a bit. I don't know I think she will miss Hemmer as a foil and a source of chemistry. That's the problem with a solo show there's less chance to show your personality. Also of note was another short one for Maria Menounos. Damn, I wish they'd go HD.

Juliet Huddy was on Redeye. Not sure about the leggings. Juliet just seems to miss the mark slightly on the outfits. I don't know what she's thinking most of the time. Problem is, maybe she ain't thinkin'. I just think that Juliet is really on the downside. She's been losing out on the musical chairs for the last couple years, her show with Mike didn't go anywhere. Mike at least smoothly transitioned back to Philly but Juliet has found the door to not be fully open back at FNC. She's been doing spot stuff, fill-ins, and weekend work. Hardly impressive. The morning shows weren't all that noteworthy. Hasselrack was once again smokin' hot. I've said it before, I'll keep saying it, I think she's a numbskull and about the only thing I liked about Rosie O'Donnell on the View was that she would call out Elisabeth for what she is. Other than that, I say a pox of both of them. Elisabeth's only redeeming value is that she's hot. But she's proven time and time again that she doesn't prepare properly and think. Megyn was continuing her kinda safe and conservative routine. Liz Claman showed a lot of pale, somewhat shapeless legs. I've noticed that she has a slight cankle. Not Hillary Clinton bad, but her calves ain't exactly Amy Robach-like if you know what I mean. The late shows were where it was at. Sarah Silverman was on Letterman. She's kind of a hard one to figure out because she's hot but also has that unique humor style. Not really a straight-up comedian, hard to define. But what's not hard to define is that her outfit was smokin'. She kept stretching her skirt out and showing what looked like fake stocking tops. I don't think she was really wearing them, but I think they were made to appear that way. I'm pretty sure that she knew exactly what she was doing. She's that type to do that and she was probably enjoying it. Well I'd rather have more girls be like that. Looks like the Golf Channel has started up a new season of Top 10 with more of Lauren Thompson as host. I still don't think she knows the difference between under par and underwear but I don't think she was hired for her golf knowledge! Jessica Alba was on Fallon wearing what appeared to be the same outfit she wore on Leno.

They have a new table at Redeye and S.E. Cupp was gracing it. Deirdre Bolton was filling in for Margaret B. on Bloomberg and doing a nice job at that. Megyn Kelly continued to kind of uh, I don't know, slightly underwhelm. She's taking a fairly conservative approach. Not wearing anything really amazing but doing just enough. Maria Menounos was showing some serious upper thigh with a patterned hose. I really wish they would go HD and do some sitdown stuff. They do too much of this fast moving camera shit.

Kind of a mixed Monday. The big news is Megyn Kelly's debut on her own show, America Live. She looked pretty good, she had that maternal kind of glow. The position of the desk doesn't allow for the greatest of shots but it'll do. Scarlet Fu was in for Margaret although she'll be back on Wednesday apparently. The Today show sucked other than the guests. Go-Go rounded out the rest of the day.

OK, no one has to explain why Jenna Wolfe has a job. Obviously she is giving someone the business because there's no other reason why. Alisyn was in something more conventional, not as dangerous, but just as nice. I guess I had to show a little Kate because she was displaying reasonable thigh even though she's slave to winterizing. Jamie Colby was unflappable again. I think if she ever looks bad, the poles will invert or something like that. Geraldo finally extracted his ass out of Haiti which meant that Kimberly Guilfoyle returned to her proper location, and that is giving us a major heaping helping of hosed legs. Nice!

Someone explain to me again why Jenna Wolfe has a job. And why Amy seems to be getting screwed. Well, the Today show was saved by Melissa Francis doing the news and a taped segment with Amy. Alisyn wore what look at first to be a bad choice, a longish wrap dress. However it was more like a robe almost, and when she went to stand up in a rather forced bit of schtick, the thing almost flew open. However I think we wouldn't have seen anything because the shirt she was wearing underneath her dress probably reached down low enough but we got a look at her upper thigh at least. Tracy Byrnes also made a nice appearance. They need to make sure that at least one FBN babe shows up every weekend. Betty Nguyen showed pretty good leg. They need to resurrect that old bit they did where they sat down in that fake lounge kind of area.

Mary Walter on Redeye. Once again, to close out the week, Kiran absolutely smokin' again. The drought of sitdowns has clearly ended, but will it continue into next week? Got a couple leg shots of Megyn Kelly from a promo for her new show. Unlike those other guys who managed to get every other shot but the only ones that count! Not sure how that happens when they have four times as many people working as I do, which is one, me! Alisyn continuing a nice backup run on F&F. The theme of today was the dark black hose, with Nat, Martha Mac, Cheryl C. and the Hasselrack sporting them. Melissa Lee seems to like the patterned hose. It seems to make her legs look better because they are not ideal otherwise.

Lessee, well, Kiran rolling again, she's really kicking up a notch this week. Not a whole lot on the Today show. Alisyn in for Gretchen. Melissa Lee looking good. Go-Go looking hot in turquoise. Kerri Lee looking very nice in a maroon suit and shoes.
