Personally, I really like Dylan. I was disappointed when he left CNBC. Fast Money was one of my favorite shows with him moderating. I'm glad NBC offered him the kind of show he wanted. Reportedly, he was widely sought after.

I don't get the vitriole here or the charges of being a Repub and comparisons to BillO. Those people either aren't paying attention to what he is saying or can't comprehend the discussion.

He has a better understanding of the economy, markets and financial regulation than any other commentator on MSNBC, so I find it a welcome addition, particularly in these economic times.

I also like the fact that he makes people support their positions with facts and logic, and doesn't let them skirt questions with vague, meaningless ideologic responses. And he follows up with questions based on what a person says instead of just reading the next question on his list. Too many people skate by regurgitating their ideologic talking points without having to support them.

Granted, his style may not be for everyone. It's pretty fast paced and aggressive, but I think that comes from working on Wall Street. That's the way things work there, and personally I like it. But he may adjust after a while.

Week 2, and he is still on??? The huge hulking steamy pile that is Mawnin' Meatin' jus' got exponentially LARGER>>>>Gawd what a Gesh-schtunk!!!

[Fogy]

Clearly not an intellectual. It's amateur hour all over again.

[Chanel]

watched this a.m. NOT feeling him.

[SlimPickins79]

Who?

[mudbones]

My thoughts exactly

[psch]

He's ok, not great. I don't understand why he has guests on the show. He interrupts them constantly in an attempt to make his point heard.

[LaTurbin]

That's for sure. He finishes what his guests start to say. It's really annoying.

I got up this morning and by habit turn to MSNBC and this fast talking car salesman is still there. This is so disappointing, PLEASE GIVE US BACK OUR TAMRON!!!

[113]

eh...it's alright, but forgettable...maybe it's just first week/month jitters...­..everyone goes through that (except for Rachel, she took off from the first episode)........i liked watching msnbc during the daytime for Tamron, she was great....i think she should have her own show around this time, whenever i watched her interview people she generally tried to get right to the point and tried to get past talking points

[Matthew Corcoran]

He did a great jon uncovering abuse of loose financial standards while at CNBC.

It's time to hire Jon Stewart as an executive producer.

I wrote 3 different posts the other day on this. That day two of them disappeared. One was on for a while. I just went through all 14 pages just in case mine were held up the other day. Couldn't find any. I could see that maybe my eyes could deceive me into missing 1 but not all 3. .

What's up? They said nothing more than I like Dylan but he is too intense for me in the morning. In one I said I wish him well even if I can't watch.

Are there computer glitches? For the life of me can't figure out why they would be censored. it is disheartening. What is the point of bothering?

[hrhc13]

I didn't like him when he was interviewed on Countdown. As posted previously he seems like MSNBCs answer to Bildo.

[ladydragon]

he talks to damn much ! AND he's not as witty as he thinks. DYLAN you're not funny or cute ! just tell us the damn story. between you and Contessa I don't know who's worse, nobody cares about your opinion.

[CydMiller]

Wow....another white male that supports republican policies and welfare for Wall Street. Something new and exciting from MSNBC. Don't get me wrong, I am a devoted fan of Keith and Rachel, but that's it.

I do think giving Alison Stewart a show would make a difference. Maybe in the 5/7pm time slot.

[swift goat pet for truth]

Tamron was such a nice break in the morning.

MSNBC is beginning to lose viewership with the morning lineup. Sorry, I use watch MSNBC constantly, now I have just gone over to CNN and HLN even though not great, still better than a lineup of loudmouth,self absorbed boors. You what happened, I'm forgetting to tune back into MSNBC after the boors are done for the day. All of this is to say, once you start losing the audience in the morning it just a matter of time when the audience will be lost all together. I do hope the powers that be rethink the entire morning programing for the morning and put people inlace who actually have a serious view and thought. I guess, this comes from me watching Fareed Zakaria a serious intellect.
