    After reading all of these comments, I now realize why the Megyn Kelly show is rated so poorly by metacritic subscribers. Essentially, you have tried and true NBC Morning Show devotees watching someone with an intellect they cannot understand or relate to and an opinion independent of the network. The intolerance of any other line of thinking by this particular group or party of people isAfter reading all of these comments, I now realize why the Megyn Kelly show is rated so poorly by metacritic subscribers. Essentially, you have tried and true NBC Morning Show devotees watching someone with an intellect they cannot understand or relate to and an opinion independent of the network. The intolerance of any other line of thinking by this particular group or party of people is disturbing and a sad display of classic ignorance. I found the show to be refreshing in a pool of boring morning shows that all follow the same script.… Expand

    The first week of Megyn Kelly Today most closely resembled a familiar political ritual: an awkward rebranding campaign by handlers trying to humanize their candidate. ... It’s just not enjoyable.

    Kelly herself tried to reframe her narrative, kicking off the show by giving a bit of history about herself. (Well, sort of. She never mentioned “Fox News” once.) It was perhaps the most honest part of the show, as Kelly recounted the death of her father when she was just a teenager. ... But the rest of Megyn Kelly Today remained a bit unfocused.

    The host was so buried under cloying anecdotes and “cute” moments (her husband was in the audience and gave her roses!) that any appeal she might have naturally had was buried by carefully stage-managed artifice. ... In an interview with the cast and creators of NBC’s own “Will & Grace,” Kelly never established a relaxing rapport with them. ... In a later segment on a nun who works with young people and bereaved mothers in a low-income neighborhood in Chicago, Kelly again never quite connected with her subjects. The pre-taped piece had little depth.
