What if San Francisco TV did The View?



OK, so insert as follows:

Dana King, Cheryl Jennings, Christina Loren, Anne Makovec and Pam Moore.

Gasia Michaelian, permanent fill-in.

Bam! Well, it sure as hell beats 7Live or that snoozefest on PIX every weeknight.

I want free plugs.

    2. Where is Ana Chavez? As a male teen in the late 80s and early 90s I used to drool over her!!!

  9. There would be a perfect gig for Barbieri. All that estrogen. He'd fit right in. Of course he'd have to share the microphone. And not getting the last word would kill him.

  10. you need to get some women who are not currently doing t.v. news..T.V. news require that they homogenize themselves to create that seamless connection between programming and commercials.. Actually Suzanne Shaw would be fabulous...and others old enough to be able to say what they actually think, women who aren't intimidated by their current employers.

  11. Actually not a bad idea. Collectively they have a strong base following. But could they pull enough interesting guests and/or celebs to make it work? It would take a pretty hard working, hustling producer to make that type of show go locally..

  12. Roberta,Jacky of KRON,Elizabeth Wenger,Erica Kato of KRON,Francis Dinglasan. ALL enjoy being girly girls..and wear short skirts and or cleavage.
    Darya is first alternate...Diane Dwire Amy G. Grace Lee. Ama Daetz...and the beautiful and underrated Lisa Gulezian I think is her name. And last but not least Lisa Argen..a girly cougar.

    1. Lisa Argen, ...

      -whom, when on KRON, said about a morning forecast that the temperatures would stay low, after the fog retreated to the shore, because the sun had expended so much energy dissipating the fog --

      -whom, when KGO was inviting photographs from viewers, commented that a picture from Capitola, showing the sun out over the ocean, was a lovely "sunrise" --

      -whom, in March of 2011, confused the day of the vernal equinox, with the first day of the switch to daylight saving --

      ..., is someone you want to see/hear on a discussion program ??

  14. why are you hating on the View rich?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Christine Craft and Grace Slick

  16. Rich, why don't you be the token male?

    ReplyDelete
  17. To follow The View formula:

    Big black buffoonish one: Deborah Edgerly
    Old, seemingly wise white one: Christine Craft
    Cute white one in the short skirt: Jaymee Sire
    Wise black comedian: Rene Hicks
    Annoying big mouth Jewess: Jan Whal

  18. None of those people have the kind of personality that could drive a show...not a one. They are all solid news people, but you could only have one news person on the show, just like Barbara Walters. You need variety. If you get more it drags it down. Local shows simply cost too much to make them presentable for them to compete with the national shows.

    1. Yeah yeah yeah, go away already!

      Rich threw out a perfectly fantastic idea--but there are always going to be those who say, with pursed lips and squinty eyes, "That couldn't possibly work. I know everything!"

      Local shows are not competing with national!

      To wit: Gregory Correa's "Harmonics" airs on East Bay Cable TV. Gregory does wonderful in depth half hour interviews with local musicians and those who make the music happen! I find it quite enlightening. He recently interviewed local blues treasure, Ron Thompson. Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SohSbzkL6-o
