First, Ditch the horns- a horrible, unnecessarily noisy way to start a weekday morning. Second, where is the news? A brief overview at the hour, and then trendy, spotlight on random actors, musicians, models and/or athletes. Third- I always liked Gayle, but lately, all she does is cut people off, and dominate the conversation. I used to be a diehard daily fan, have now switched to NBC where I get actual news.

Getting Worse
naomi894488 October 2021
Not a fan of the loud and blasting trumpets. Gayle still feels the need to repeat everything and ask dumb questions. Nate always has a stupid smug look on his face and says dumb comments like Gayle. The only reason I watch this show is for Tony and all the great correspondents.
Get Rid of Gayle King
donmik-9294914 August 2023
Gayle King is OUTRAGEOUSLY rude. She speaks over everyone. I'm disturbed that she can't seem to see beyond color. I don't feel like the shows agenda is news anymore, but Gayles promotion of who she feels is worthy. More Tony Dokopol (sp) and Nate Burelson (sp) and less Gayle King would be a great improvement.
Get off the racists band and just report news, regardless of who's involved. I get that everyone needs to be included ... but that is EVERYONE. Give us news, show us truth. I'm going to have to switch to some other network in order to get a true picture of what's happening in the world...

Hispanic Heratige Month
almaa-0915625 September 2023
Where is the spotlighting of notable Hispanics? You have an agenda and it's not all inclusive news. No longer watching! The hispanic community is vibrant, musical, intellectual and you have failed to highlight this. The Cubans and their orchestral talents. The Puerto Ricans and dance styles through their ancestral flair. The Dominicans and their food and music. South Americans, Central Americans, Mexico and of course the Motherland of Spain. All I have heard is football, baseball, hiphop, rap with the news of the day. Not about the Hispanics in outerspace or in the sciences, the authors, the poets, the educators. I'm disappointed!!!
Nate the sinGER
kimvirgili1 March 2024
Someone needs to work with Nate's pronunciation. Between him and Gayle, there is way too much ebonics going on. Comes across colloquial, and unintelligent. Nate seems to have difficulty with words like, "sinGers", and "sinGing" causing the hair to stand up on the back of my neck. I'm wondering if it is possible to work on this with Nate. Try this. Pronounce Singer, Siner, not Sing ger. You can explain to Nate that in the word "Singer" the letters "ng" say just one sound. Simply, there is NO "G" sound in the word Singer. There are many options out there to get proper guidance. You could suggest he try YouTubing Speech Modification.
Not as bad as the Today Show
quockquock3 February 2022
It's catching up to being as bad as the Today show. Gayle King is horrible. It just proves that CBS's agenda is more prevalent than hiring the best candidate for the job. Also, they simply don't report the truth, they report whatever message they are trying to get across.
The Dish?
smokeyjosemail28 September 2023
First off, I agree, get rid of Gail and Oprah, by default!! The new weekly segment, the dish, now on weekdays is awful!! The NYT people are horrendous! There is a reason they were hired for print! It is a huge disappointment and detriment to Saturdays Dish!
Apparently my saying the Dish stinks, is not enough! I need to add more so... Why do we have to have Oprah on all the time? I am so sick of that woman!! Enough already! Don't care about her charities, don't care about her book club, don't care about her opinions on anything! She's like a frickin Congressman! Retire already!! Enough. Oh my god!!

CBS Mornings is a likable light TV magazine
manbchdog2 July 2022
It has been said that CBS Mornings suffers in the ratings by containing too much news.
Much like Fruit Loops contain too much nutrition.
Their focus on banter and personalities is heavy.
More than 50% of air time is advertising. Much of the remaining time is banter and a rehash of content from other CBS entities. Apparently the world's only newsworthy authors are published by Simon and Schuster. They have a very good even if imbalanced emphasis on diversity and representation.
Myself I choose NPR and the New York Times for actual news.

It's Sad What Passes for Morning News
mherrity7 March 2022
The People Freedom Truck Convoy is circling the Capital as I type. And not one word from CBS.
When networks place a blackout on a topic it doesn't mean the subject is insignificant or propaganda .It means the government is afraid of you and the networks are kowtowing. CBS ican lock out coverage of the Convoy and I can lockout all CBS and it affiliates.

Please please please stop over-talking each other!

Please please please stop over-talking each other!
My husband and I love watching your program in the mornings but only especially so before this very annoying behavior started. Because of it, we can hardly understand all of what the primary speaker is saying during the over-talking - often having to rewind in order to try to hear key points.
Sadly, it somewhat reminds me of the FOX programs a couple of decades ago when the hosts sat around spouting opinions with a lot of over-talking. I gave up on them and haven't even tried to watch since.
We enjoy watching otherwise with CBS being our go-to morning program.

Gayle King
karinedisrud8 April 2022
I watch CBS mornings every day. I even record it so I can watch it whenever. I love Nate and Tony but Gail is always interrupting and having the last word on everything. I wish she could be replaced. There are a lot of great female replacements when someone is gone and I think a change is needed.

Gayle King
loisjacobs-2008320 February 2024
Can you Please ask Gayle to keep her shoes on during the show, so unprofessional, very unprofessional and she needs to stop interrupting her co-workers!!! She needs to sit back and do her part of the show, she is trying way too hard! I Love CBS Morning, Great show, I watch you every morning. Another things when you show special purchases on TV, it's great but the shipping cost is outrageous but I Love the specials you have for us to purchase. I Love all the interviews but then again Gayle tries to take over and interrupt, that needs to stop. I wake up every looking forward to seeing all of them, not just Gayle, it's not her show!
I never miss this show!
mysterteecher25 April 2023
This morning news show is the best way to start your day! The team of Tony Dokoupil, Gayle King and Nate Burleson is the perfect combination of intelligence, sensitivity and wit. Educational as well as Entertaining. I LEARN THINGS when I watch this show. I'm ENTERTAINED in a multitude of ways when I watch this show. As a retired teacher of 45 years, these are the essential elements of a successful teaching experience and this morning team fills the bill in excellent fashion. They are also backed up by the exceptional reporting of the CBS news family of great journalists. Start your day with the trumpets! You won't regret it.
Get rid of Glad

Trumpets are annoying. I always mute them. Vlad is conceited, can't stop moving around, and looks like an alien. He is on the show more and more so I will be watching it less and less because of him. I have no interest in the cooking, book reviews, and broadway stuff. Saturday show should drop the poor Musical groups. Seems like both shows are struggling to fill the time slot. I could do without them trying to sell items at a pace which seems too rushed to understand what thy are saying. Seems like there are more and more commercials. I love Tony, Gayle, and Nate but it feels like Nate will loose interest and leave to pursue other interests.
Great Changes

Love this morning team crew
jajackson-1121918 January 2024
I love the flow of the show. It's more about news than gimmicks. I love the dynamic between the cohosts they are so quick witted and funny. The news is the focus the reporting is great. Gayle is so warm and heartfelt, Nate is hilarious, Tony and Vlad are great too. They each bring interesting backgrounds and perspectives to the stories. It feels like a warm hug in the morning even when the news they are reporting on is so depressing. I honestly don't understand what all the Gayle hating is about on these other reviews. I wasn't gonna leave a review till I saw all of those and just felt like these people don't get it. So I say watch it and see for yourself!
