Another article:

So basically, Erica's been picked to fill the void left when Amy Robach jumped over to ABC.
So far it sounds like Jenna's Sunday spot is still safe.

Might be the first smart thing NBC's done in a while. :jetserl

looks like Jenna Wolfe has been demoted and the Erica Hill version of Today starts this Sat. Nov 3

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/e ... ews-385351

actually, this really stinks unless you love Erica and Jenna... when they say "news anchor" for Jenna, I'm guessing she will be the 1 at the news desk...so no more chance for variety with revolving news desk anchors

As a co-host of a show, Erica Hill is a major upgrade over Jenna.

That isn't much of a loss. Once in awhile, they'd put Tamron at the news desk, and once in a great rare while, like once a year, they'd put Jansing there. Otherwise, it was whichever random guy from WNBC was free for the weekend. And I agree with jjis. Erica > Jenna.

Sorry, Tamron and Jenna fans
Erica is a major upgrade
The one who should be upset is Amy Robach
She should have had Weekend Today to herself instead of sharing it with Jenna
I'm sure this makes her feel that much better about her move to GMA ;)

Honestly. Jenna and Erica have similar senses of humor, and having them swap days would be a little pointless. I like Erica a lot, I've been watching her since ZDTV, but her rise is a bit perplexing. Regardless, I'm glad to see her. I've always enjoyed her personality and looks.

I like Jeanna better than Erica but I don't really watch NBC anyway so it really doesn't matter to me much.

I watched it a bit, it was completely weird watching Jenna watching Erica do her job

Tomorrow will be the strangest since that was Jenna's regular day

I don't care that much about Jenna or Erica, but Jenna is much higher energy and more charismatic. To me, the pick up of Erica Hill was just another way for Today Show/NBC to show how badly it treats its people.

Jenna has always and will continue to show more leg than Erica ever will - Still don't understand what NBC saw in Erica to hire her from CBS - So many other women out there that are hotter

Shows like Today don't hire based on hotness, they hire on ability to perform the job. In that way, Erica is miles ahead of Jenna
