I think Matt Lauer is taking Bryant Gumbel by trying to get rid cohosts Ann Curry,like Bryant tried to get rid of Willard Scott years ago.Matt is getting a swelled head being a host and needs to be dumped by NBC! !

I agree Matt Lauer has turned into a condescending, self absorbed arrogant newscaster, he has single handedly destroyed a morning news show a lot of people use to enjoy. He had no business to blame Ann Curry for any of the rating issues, he should look closer at himself. He has no chemistry with Savanna Guthrie, and the format is awful,{ that is an issue for the producers, too fast too sad}, people want to be uplifted in the morning not drone on about sad issues for an entire segment then rush through many leaving the viewer dizzy. Bring back Ann Curry, Meredith Vieira, and Katie Couric, and let Matt go he's bringing down the whole show. He will ;probably end up blaming Savannah Guthrie next, don't let this ha[[en please listen to your views. 'Even Al Roker doesn't look as happy as he use to be.

I am not sad about NOT watching the Today Show. Matt Lauer sank it single-handedly. He is the most condescending man on TV. I won't watch Today show because of him. I won't watch because he's a jerk and treated Ann Curry like crap. Then, Lauer believes that Savannah, homely, unkempt, fatigued Savannah will save the Today show. Not happening. First in the morning, I want to uplifted, like my cup of joe. Savannah is a bore. Matt is a bore. What happened to NBC's Today show. YUCK!

So, my mom posted recently and I agree with her. Matt Lauer is way old. He was probably good at one time but Josh Elliot is who my generation want to watch. Josh Elliot and Natalie Morales would be my pick for hosting the Today Show. You want to let Matt L. dictate host, and that's your dollar. Ratings bring advertising and Matt Lauer is like my dad's age. I don't want to know about his problems with his wife and Natalie. I think Matt Lauer is pretty immature to forfeit ratings because his "wife thinks he had an affair" with whoever. We don't care anymore. We care about how you present today's news, fashion, celeb, viral videos, stuff like that. Matt L. is stuck in the 80's with an ego the size of our planet earth. Matt and Savannah are 'icky'. Please refresh your Today show. Watching GMA of course, because that's cool. They engage us. Today throws people under the bus. No one likes bullying. We see Matt L. as a bully. so is his wife.

I have found Matt Lauer to be a condescending jerk. I had watched the Today show for so many years until Ann Curry's firing. Not that Ann should have been replaced but not by Savannah - ick! That Savannah is unkempt, non-engaging...on and on. Why would Matt tap her to be his side wing? He wants women around him to fail. Natalie Morales' opinions, presentation and ability to engage a breath audience far out ways Matt Lauer's influence. NBC believes Matt Lauer is their future. WRONG. Natalie and Al Roker should be the hosts. Others, Donny Deusch (sp?), and Kathie Lee & Hoda make ratings. What foolish shenanigans on the part of NBC - trying to make Matt Lauer happy at the NBC viewer's expense. GONE. I will not watch Today any longer. I won't even Tivo my 2 favs, KathieLee and Hoda because of NBC's stupidity. GET RID OF MATT LAUER AND that Savannah gal (she is reprehensible and not engaging) NBC = ICK
