Live with Kelly and Mark

I've watched and attended numerous episodes of "Live" and I think it is better than ever now. Personally, I found Kathie Lee Gifford annoying and I am thrilled with the breath of fresh air that Kelly Ripa brings to the morning. Her rapport with Regis is fantastic to watch and their dynamic is unique. When I can't watch "Live" live, I tape it and start my evening with the talk show pair that have no peer.

Dear God Kelly Ripa never shuts up. No wonder Michael Strahan left. She has become more unbearable every year. I don't know how Ryan puts up with it, as she constantly interrupts him. The show is 100 times better when Ali Wentworth substitutes as she is funny without total narcissism.

I think Kelly is trying too hard to show she is not a raciest. She now is looking to the gay community to help her. She was very unprofessional when she left the show for a week and I do not think she will ever regain her nice girl image. Too bad, Regis has not spoken to her since he left and now Michael, could it be her???? I would not like to see Anderson as her co host because I think it would be a big mistake for his career. Now if they replace Kelly love to see Anderson with someone else, maybe his mother??? I think Gelman has been very professional through this whole mess and I would like to see him and Anderson co host one time

I believe the life of this show has seen it's better days. How phony and weird for Kelly to ask Mark what he did the night before during the opening of the show. She LIVES with him so she knows damn well what he did the night before. It is just awkward to watch this 'scripted' scene. This is a perfect example why married celebrities should not have a show together.. especially these two. Mark isn't that interesting and neither is Kelly now that the show's dynamic has shifted to a 'Married to my Co-host' theme'. There is only so much bragging & talking about their kids the viewer audience can handle. I do not see this being a long-term situation. I think Kelly has out-lived her 'Live' seat as Host of this show. It's time for someone younger, fresher and perhaps with a bust-line as well! Lol!

The show keeps making more and more prerecorded shows and host chats. They have been airing prerecorded shows for the last month! How can the show be called Live! I have been watching it for many years and every year they do less and less live shows. They should re title it because it is deceptive to the audience. When Regis and Kathie Lee were on, the show was much more respectful of its audience by airing live shows. When Kelly first started, they continued to do so in the beginning, but as time went, more shows were prerecorded. These last couple of years have been ridiculous. Several times a year, they air prerecorded shows for several weeks! The host chats are usually very brief and they never discuss any newsworthy issues (how can they?)--they stick to general topics to mask the fact that it's all prerecorded. It is frustrating to watch on a daily basis and now, as soon as I realize that the show is prerecorded (they indicate it at the bottom of the screen very quickly during host chat), I turn off the television. Nothing wrong with it but don't call the show Live!
