Was a mistake of whatshisname to go with this Morning and not a return to AM.Agreed wholeheartedly. I still think of the tagline "The Most News in the Mornings" when I think of American Morning. The AM studio with the newsroom view was one of my favorite sets. It was a shame when they walled off the newsroom for Early Start and then let the set deteriorate during the final years at Time Warner Center. Relaunching American Morning and creating a newsier set would be a good move if they wanted to move away from CNN This Morning.

Wish they'd bring this back to New York and create one in Atlanta at Techwood. The new London newsroom fixed shot is okay, but I wouldn't mind seeing a bit more depth.

It's the same thing you're advocating, but with Max and Bianca instead of a new anchor. I'm sure the team would be able to adapt to new guidelines. Pretty much every team has had to learn something new within the past 12 months. If Max and Bianca switched to a newsroom backdrop (seeing as it is the name of the show) it'd basically look like Early Start.
...
Maybe when they pick new full time hosts, they can expand Early Start back to 2 hours!
