5. I wish they had left Schuster and Tamron Hall on for two hours, maybe moved them to 2-4
Instead of cutting their time to only 3-4 fromt heir 3-5 slot. They were the only MSNBC I watched during the daytime most of last year. Schuster and Hall seem to be getting used for a lot of fill in time, though - they've each subbed for Keith and Rachel, and do "important" stories during the daytime. Maybe they asked for less scheduled time to be able to continue those duties.

And I wish they'd bring back the guy they used to have at 11 AM - Carlos Watkins? I really liked him a lot.

Lawrence O'Donnell, maybe? Stephanie Miller? Cenk?

6. Me - I've had two operations in the last year and have days when I am not functional for much
In the last ten years I had numerous operations needing long recovery time - and it gets longer with each procedure as time takes its toll on my body. I'm pretty much unable to run my business - a horse farm - and am not healthy enough to really hold down a regular job. It also keeps me from getting out to volunteer or socialize.

So I do what I can in the house and have the TV on most of the time for background noise and to keep up with news. Or watch informational programming, everything from science shows, to cooking, decorating and history.

7. I turn it on in the waiting room (whenever I can) to MSNBC
I make the Pukes watch it until one of them complains and asks the receptionist to change it.....

14. would like to see Dr. Nancy get her show back also.

16. Yes - it seems as though they only had time for her until the hot health care debate was over
I was not so pleased with her at first, but she was really into the health care debate. Of course, that may be why they dumped her.
