when there's no Ed show. This prison stuff is unwatchable, and doesn't help the networks image at all.

1. What in the world is their reasoning behind these prison shows?
And why can they not re-run the usual suspects (Ed, Rachel, Cenk) as they do on the other four nights a week?

2. I wonder if these prison shows get good ratings.
Hard to imagine, but I suppose it's possible.

3. Was this a demotion for Ed?
I hope that MSNBC didn't lower his salary because he is now only on for four nights. Sure wish he was still on at 6:00. I like him better than Cenk.

5. He took over O'Donnell's old spot
and O'Donnell used to get Fridays off. That's all I can come up with.

6. I know he took O'Donnell's old spot but
why couldn't he have kept his 6:00 spot and let Cenk take over O'Donnell's original time slot. I still don't understand this.

4. I would rather have Ed, with his new format, in the 8:00pm slot
and give Lawrence back his Last Word slot


I can see why MSNBC tried it but I think that the improvement to Ed's show with the new format is enough to earn him KO's old time slot.

8. Agree.
I can't comprehend why they think the same audience who watches Rachel would stay tuned to prison shows!

9. Or give an up and coming host a show. I turn the television off when
prison stuff comes on. I would watch an opinion/talk show that bookend Rachel's friday show.

10. As soon a the prison stories come on I turn on CNN
Don't want to see that crap. Life on the outside is bad enough. I can't understand why MSNBC thinks people want to see this. Why air our dirty laundry to the world?

11. You are soooo right. I just don't get it.
The prison stuff is absolutely unwatchable. I've been flipping over to AC 360 if Cooper is on or just watching stuff i recorded earlier in the week. The entire weekend at MSNBC totally sucks. So happy the weather is warming up so I can spend Sat. & Sun. outside. I'd rather pull weeds than watch what's offered.
