The Spinward Marches

hey steve i have been watching you three for as long as you have been on. I started watching it in the mornings before i went to work.What i love about it is you get everything breaking news, bantering back and forth, entertainment , gossip, and i loved watching you give advise to jill when she was going through tough times.And look at her now she was grossed out by dorothy talking about having nash! So to summ it up good day l.a. is like family and i think that is what makes it so great the honesty of the show. so thanks to all of you for being just who you are!

I just love that I can get updated on the latest news and have a few laughs at the same time. News is one of my least favorite things to watch, but you guys make it enjoyable!! Thanks so much! :o) Oh!!! Just LOVE that picture of Rick D.!!!

Steve,

When a show is as good as GDLA, I can only tell you why I watch, and why I think other people watch.

In a nut shell, you keep it real. In today's day an age the world seems so wrapped up with their own image. All that matters is how they are seen by their peers. I have to be thin, because society says so. I have to be the smartest, because society says so. Or I have to be the best parent, because society says so.

You see where I'm going with this. The three of you do such a good job at being yourselves without even trying. Your fans gravitate towards it. We are so starved for honesty, that we know the truth when we hear it. You three don't hold back, and we love it.

This wasn't really a review of your show. It was more of an opinion as to why we can't get enough of you three. Just the fact that you guys honestly can't figure out why you're the #1 show, is breath taking and refreshing.

So keep on, keeping it real.

P.S. Tell Jillian for me, that she's not fat.... She's fluffy!

hey steve great show . i am lucky enougth to be able to watch tv while at work its fun and not boring for it being news you guys are very up to date.jill and dorothy being hot not a bad gig i bet.

It's the tension between Dorothy and Jillian that keeps me watching...

I watch the show every morning. I love it. You're my favorite part of the show, Steve. I think you're funny and smart and you're just a cool guy. Dorothy's cool too, but she's too easily distracted sometimes, so we hardly ever get the gossip haha. And I really respect Jillian's openess and honesty but I don't always agree with her and on a bad day when it's so early in the morning, she can be annoying. Forgive me. I LOVE Nichelle!! She is so cool, I love how her mom is always calling her haha. I like Rick D too, he's so smart and cute. Bobby D is cute too, he has a great smile. Lisa Breck is adorable, I love her. Elizabeth Espinosa is cool too, she's so funny. I pretty much like everybody, you all have a great chemistry and it's a family feeling. Thanks for putting on a great show!

i love the show , it brings me up wene i feel down , you all make me laugh , there isn't a morning that i miss your show , i hope it goes for another 12 years or longer ....thanks for the memories and laughs (:DEBBIE

Hello Steve!
First off, thanks for plugging my blog! Given the subject matter of my first review, I think I’ll probably earn a few hash marks myself. Maybe I’ll try some lighter fare next time, maybe not.
Now onto GDLA.
My take-
Unlike the long time viewers, I’ve only been watching for about 8 months so I can’t chime in on the evolution of the show, but here’s my two cents anyway.
Might as well state the obvious first; the success of GDLA ultimately comes down to the chemistry between the three hosts. On the most superficial level, you are three attractive likeable personalities. It’s almost right out of central casting: the handsome, friendly faced, white haired news man, the perky, petite, good girl and the sexy. guy’s gal, bombshell. There’s something compelling about watching people of such diverse type interact. A good portion of reality tv is built on just that premise.
The idea that it used to be, “How much can one man take?” and is now referred to as, “How much can two women take?” is interesting to me too. What that says to me is that the tv norm used to be news and now it’s fluff. In other words, when “real” news was (at least perceived to be) more in the forefront, it was… “How much fluff can a newsman take?” But now that fluff has surpassed hard news on tv, it’s how much serious talk from the news guy can a gossip reporter/working mom and a pop culture- fashion maven/ weather girl take?” That’s no slam on Jillian and Dorothy though. I think they are both excellent at what they do and as likeable and fun to watch as any women on local or national

Steve was out for a week, I became a fan of, smart guy,Tony McEwing too (love his dance too).
I’ll continue to watch because at this point I’m completely hooked. Will Dorothy ever stop apologizing for the Britney coverage? Will Jillian finally conquer her fear of childbirth before the big day? Will Steve forever be confounded by the popularity of his own show??? I have to see how it turns out.
ps.... I had no idea I am so long winded. It took 3 posts to finsh my thought. I'll be more pith in the future.

Hi Steve!

I've been watching you guys for as long as I can remember -- has it been 12 years already!?!? I did tune out for a while when Dorothy and Jillian were gone (fired? I missed a few shows there lol) And I thought the chemistry left with them, I was sooo happy to see them return! When I have a bad nights sleep, it's fun to wake up to your guys playful banter, it puts a smile on a my face and just starts the day off right, who needs coffee, lol!! Jillian reminds me sooo much of one of my sister in laws, looks and personality wise, as well as Dorothy looks and acts like one of my best friends. And I've been watching you since I was in diapers ::snicker:: so I feel like I'm hanging with family in the morning :)
