I used to enjoy New Day with John and Brianna, but thought I would give the new show a chance. Unfortunately, there was no charisma between Poppy, Don and Kaitlan. And when Licht fired Don and left the 2 ladies, it was really boring. Poor Poppy, who left a great show with Jim Scutto was left with Kaitlan, who in her own right was a good reporter, doing the White House news updates and things like that. She seemed uncomfortable interacting in a bit of a social aspect, and was very boring on the show. Since she has moved on, it has been nice to see Phil Mattingly host with Poppy. He has such a great personality and brings a welcoming environment to the show and interacts well with Poppy and all the guests that they interview there at the table. He seems to brighten Poppy up and it appears that she now enjoys her job, which makes their time fun to watch. I think Phil would make a brilliant permanent fixture on this program.
