NBC has lost me. The change stinks!!!! I watch Sue S at the new time and at 11pm. The change seems disjointed, the anchors look unsettled as they wiggle in their chairs, Baquero doesn't have that fling, and Perri P is too much for me tohave to look at for that smount of time. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. MAJOR MISTAKE! Sue Simmons is hot, hot, hot!!!! and the others are not, not not!!!!!

That WNBC 530p news is doomed. By WABC and noticias en Espanol en canal 41. But Sue, she's an original. Even though parts of her these days aren't.

Kaity Tong replaced Rosanne Scamadella. Scamadella did a small comeback with WNYW and she don't look so good. Some Italians don't age well. yeah yeah bring on the sophia loren fanbois.

Geez! Gothamist scared me there for a second. I also thought that she was leaving for good. I still remember the ads that NBC put out touting Sue's arrival to New York. I believe she came from the Washington D.C. station. Also, didn't Sue replace Rosanne Scarmadella? You know, Gilda Radner's inspiration for Rosanne Rosanadanna? Or was Rosanne from channel 7?

Sure Simmons is 63?!?!? I almost just fell out of my chair! Is that seriously true?

Boy, there's some haircuts Sue would like to forget. Some co-anchors, too, probably.

Sue Simmons rocks! She's head and shoulders above all the other eye candy newscasters. I'm glad she's not leaving altogether.

Sue is a treasure. And so well-preserved. Did you know she's an incredible 63 years old? Very few anchorwomen make it to that age without being tossed aside for a much younger blonde.

Whoops, my mistake, thanks MT.

Well at least she's not leaving entirely. That would be a disaster. I think that's Jack Cafferty, Rockenrope. Chuck S. is Blonde.

WABC is number one for one reason and one reason only: A goddess named Liz.
