The Unexpected Admission
As they prepared to discuss trending topics, Craig confessed he had never watched the show before that moment. He told Jenna, "You know, I've never seen [Today With Jenna and Friends]."
"That is so rude!"
Jenna responded, clearly surprised, emphasizing, "Did you just hear him say he's never watched the show?"
Craig's Explanation
Craig explained his reason: as co-anchor of the first three hours of NBC’s morning series alongside Savannah Guthrie, he rarely stays in Studio 1A for the 10 a.m. segment. "I'm usually in transit, but this is nice," he told Jenna.
"Here's the thing about it ... it's a full hour,"
Jenna pointed out, to which Craig replied, "I know," before admitting, "I could probably watch some of it."
Recognition of Jenna's Influence
Although Craig hasn’t actually watched the show, he acknowledged the significant impact Jenna has made on it.
