This is not a serious news show in the least. How NBC got away with associating "Later Today" with "The Today Show", I'll never know. "Later Today" consists of three women sitting behind a countertop in a kitchen-like setting. There are no news reports. Instead, the show consists of guests who come on and advise their audience to decorate their homes in ways that will attract men. Or guests who show the audience the right way to put on makeup. Clearly, this show is designed for homemakers. Now, I have nothing against homemakers, but "The Today Show" is designed for everybody. It's just plain wrong to portray "Later Today" as the same show later in the morning. "Later Today" is a women's show hidden behind a name with a very different connotation. And, I find the material downright insulting (note the "I". I'm well aware that many people don't share my opinion). I wouldn't care if it weren't for the fact that NBC pulled an act of deceit. I hope "Later Today" is soon put out of its misery. Or, at least change the title!

I find this show thoroughly enjoyable. True it is NOT like the Today show. I find it entertaining and there is a lot of useful information for women 30 to 55 years. It covers all aspects of women's lives, including raising children, hair cuts, finances, etc. I hope they DON'T cancel it and it stays on for quite a while. I love the 3 hosts too!
