Saw the two of them on The Nine this morning. Very graceful and humble people. Not a fan of the evening and late night Fox 2 newscasts. In the last several years, Huel seemed to become a bit preachy and overly dramatic (delivery reminded my of William Shatner's Capt. Kirk orations on Star Trek). This was especially on display during the Let Rip Segments with the overly hyper and annoying Charlie Langton.

Monica...meh...she seemed to understand that her role was that of an efficient news reader. Not big on Roop as Huel's replacement, He appears to have an over inflated ego and opinion of himself. Although Taryn Asher does a good job. At least she looks like she is aging naturally unlike Amy Andrews whose face is starting to resemble a cat/Joan Rivers, or that puppet in the Saw movies (Jigsaw??).

Roop definitely loves him some Roop Raj.

Taryn seems like a class act who is way too good for the toolbag she married.

I will miss them, I didn't mind watching them, I have been watching all the newscast lately, Seen them on the Nine this morning, I enjoyed what they had to say they both are humble, Fortunately we didn't have to see Denna and the Wig wearing Lue on there trying to make it about themselves!!!

Boy, some people have to be assholes. As if you could do better....


They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

If I'm not mistaken...isnt WJBK pretty much at the bottom of the news ratings?
This duo isnt exactly the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Well, they dominated the news rankings:
Adults 25-54:
M-F 10pm-11pm- FOX 2 = 4.7/12, WMYD = .8/2
Adults 18-49:
M-F 10pm-11pm- FOX 2 = 3.4/10, WMYD = .6/2


But does it mean much if their only competition was WMYD?

:D

OK, I stand corrected. From 10-11pm with basically no competition they absolutely killed it! :lol:

At 25:08, Monica refers to "the late, great Carol Burnett," who's very much among the living:

They both retired in style. Good luck to both on you next adventures.

The only thing I think of when I see Roop Raj is a self-centered prick who is willing to put lives at risk because he wants to drive while blasted.
