I saw Sharon in PM Edition today. Interesting.
This makes me think she was demoted to fill-in, like Rich was once Dave Schwartz was let go. It further speculates that it's possible if there's more cuts, Sharon may be the next to go.

Either that, or they have unannounced layoff of Sam Mohr, and Sharon is Betty's new co-host.

It isn't too likely, but stranger things happened.

Which leaves Paul Goodloe the only OCM left that has been with Evening Edition (weekday or weekend) since it launched in 2001.

I just saw a commercial for ICHT and FFN airing from 2-4PM today. Could this just be a mistake, or is the 2-hour afternoon block really going to air on weekends too? I certainly hope not. Then again, with the recent layoffs I'm not surprised. <_<

It's a trade-off. Since Forecast Earth is presumably over with, the 5pm hour will now be free for PME or WWC.

So let me ask this: Are there any OCMs anymore (besides Abrams, Bettes, and Goodloe) that work a single show and are not fill-ins? :dunno:

From what I'm seeing in the new schedule, they're going to be moving some OCM's around to other shows for testing and see where people fit...
