I turned on Amanpour & Co. Last night (4/28/25) and found a stand-in for the hostess, because CA was "on assignment." I did not get her name, but was floored by her capacity to interview various guests with truly logical and probing follow-up questions, demonstrating a keen understanding of issues, and an ability to bring the audience along for a glimpse of the complexities behind the topics being discussed. The topic was Trumps first 100 days and the guest was a Mr. Ross, author of Statecraft 2.0. The host was able to toss a few seemingly softball questions but soon impressed me with follow-ups which revealed Trump's true motivations behind his haphazard foreign diplomacy; Netanyahu and Gaza, Russia and Ukraine, Iran, North Korea, etc. I was so pleased with how she politely and effortlessly discussed the real motivation behind Trumps involvement as a base desire to be considered for the Nobel Peace Prize, and how his interest is not to gain peace but is in fact an extension of his avarice and greed and his need to be the center of attention...he doesn't want peace, or a nuclear free world; he is in it for the personal aggrandizement; and she was able to support these conclusions by demonstrating Trump's lack of continuity on those issues and why he loses interest when diplomacy becomes difficult.

It was so refreshing that I had to go onto the IMDb page, find Amanpour and Company, and write a review about it. More people need to watch the show. It is truly an important show, and last night was an important episode.

Still don't know her name but she DID mention she completed the London Marathon in under 4 hours! 👍

I was so pleased with the interviews and her ability to quickly cut through the noise and focus on what our presidents real motivations are and what that means to us all on this planet. I patiently waited for her to identify herself, but there it was at the end of the show. She did not try to take credit or put her name or her stamp her initials on the show; she simply said "good night" and the show ended unlike most other TV hosts who always have to slip their name in for self-promotion or career extension, and so on.

I don't care for the news, because there's so much going on (mostly negative), and it gets overwhelming. However, I watch this to catch up on what's happening in the world of politics. The View is okay, but it's too subjective. Just like every other talk show, it's more or less for entertainment, than for obtaining information or becoming intellectually enlightened. You're only hearing one perspective. Amanpour & Company, on the other hand, takes a deep dive into global issues. Experts and authors are interviewed within the fields of foreign affairs, technology, and business. Christiane Amanpour is so professional. She doesn't interrupt or talk over the guests, or try to force her opinions on them, and she asks thought-provoking questions. If people are going to discuss current events, I can do without them shouting at the camera or telling jokes, like mispronouncing a politician's last name on purpose to make it sound goofy (I'm referring to Joy Behar. I know she's a comedian, but doing that on national TV is childish). I don't need to be wound up, or laugh. With all of the anti-LGBTQ+ legislation, gun violence that's plaguing communities, and people who have OUD (opioid use disorder) being stigmatized when they go to the ER for help, there's nothing funny about the state of our country. If you like to get your news from social media, and/or random websites where nothing is fact-checked, be my guest - but I prefer to hear an unbiased take on things. Considering we're living in an age of fearmongering, I'm thankful for this show, and PBS in general.

Wow!!! I've been watching this show with Christiane Amanpour on PBS since it 1st aired in 2018. And her show before that from 2009 to 2018.

I Love her and how she has multiple guests from both sides to discuss issues covered on this show. One of the Few News shows you can actually Trust in this Ridiculous Age of BS NEWs ... You know who you are FOX and Newsmax! :o Christiane has journalistic integrity, a moral compass, and dignity, things that is dying in the USA. You'll Never see her go off on some Unhinged and Ridiculous Screaming RANT! She will actually convey what we are actual seeing on News clip video and Not try to say it's the Complete OPPOSITE of What all OuR EYES are Witnessing, like other News casters these days.

She's like an Endangered Species. Literally and Figuratively.

I keep her in my prayers as she battles with her health issues. We can't afford to lose more people like her. :(

Very one sided show. Believes everything left is the truth. And everything to the right is a lie.

When in fact both sides are lying to us. The truth is in the middle somewhere.
