Jenna Wolfe and Lester Holt on 'Weekend Today' Show

There were more high jinks this AM on the Sunday edition of 'Today' with Jenna Wolfe and Lester Holt. This morning, Wolfe seemed to return to 'how I'm related to the news". I think she has made a lot of progress in this position... but still too often slips back into self-inclusion in the news or self-depricating actions.

• This morning, at the top of the show, Wolfe got into some back and forth with Holt about a word. I believe she was taliing about "schismatizing". Holt didn't realize what she was talking about (neither did I)... and told her. She mentioned that her mother would be happy about the discussion... and something about her 'big new job here.' It was awkward for Holt. I really like him and hate to see the rhythm of the show disrupted for him.
• Later, as Wolfe read a story about Pres. Bush's remarks last night at a Washington media event, she pulled herself into the story. Bush was joking about John McCain distancing himself from Bush. The President added that 'Jenna is moving out.' Wolfe joked about herself (Jenna) not knowing she was moving out. We (viewers) all know the President was talking about his daughter. Awkward.
• Finally, in several later segments, Wolfe made reference to the drizzle on the plaza and that she was out in. She finally even slapped herself around a bit by saying she needed to just stop talking about the rain. How about complaining to the executive producer about the segments in the rain instead of mentioning it so often to viewers.

If you've followed my posts about Wolfe, Amy Robach and Holt, you'll know that I was tough on Wolfe when she came to this position. I have been, and still am, an NBC News watcher. But, I think she has grown a lot. It's sad though when she slips back into old habits. By they way, there's a new string of comments about Wolfe on TVSpy.com. And... the TodayShow.com page focused on Weekend Today still only features Holt. There's no presence for Wolfe or Robach.
