So I think that answers the post before this one.

We may have a difference about The Nine.
When you watch the Third Hour of Today, or GMA3, or Kelley and Company, or anything like that, it's people sitting around talking to each other. Nobody is looking into the camera every 10-15 seconds, it's just people sitting around laughing and talking with each other.
And that, to me, is what The Nine is about. If you notice, nobody on The Nine other that Centofanti is consistently glancing into the camera while everyone else is rag chewing with each other. It's a possibility that may be what you seen, and you misinterpreted it to think she was being left out of the conversation.
Sure they need to look into the camera when the show is changing gears, introducing a new segment or topic, going to break.
Your thoughts?

The odd thing is - when he did his radio show, his voice didn't bother me.

Ryan Ermani does not have a good on air persona . He is ok as a 3rd banana for sports. Morning anchor, no. FOX 2 should review their on air staff. IMO, Ryan would be better doing off air duties. Nice man, but he does yell. I switch channels whenever he is on.

We differ.
I like Ermani on The Nine. Like I said in a previous post, I like when The Nine is the 3 people sitting around shooting the breeze, and laughing and talking back and forth. He seems to me to be a perfect fit for that sort of thing.
Yeah, he can take over the conversation sometimes, and the others have to be kind of "rapid fire" to stay in there.
But overall I enjoy and agree with most of what he says.
