Jon & Kimberly join Tucker to form the Fox & Friends Weekend “A-Team” Saturday. Co-hosts Clayton Morris and Anna Kooiman were pulled from the F&FW Saturday lineup this morning in the wake of the horrific terrorist attacks on France Friday evening (local time) that left 127 dead and 200 others injured (99 in critically condition). In their stead, F&FW substituted more seasoned FNC veterans, Happening Now co-host Jon Scott and Five co-anchor and guest co-host Kimberly Guilfoyle. Notably, today Tucker got to stay in the game. [Two years ago (04/20/13), after the capture of the last of the Boston Marathon bomber brothers, Tucker and Clayton both were temporarily demoted on F&FW (Saturday) in favor of FNC heavyweights Brian Kilmeade and–yes, dear reader–the very same Jon Scott: Perhaps, to Clayton and Tucker’s chagrin, their then F&FW ace co-anchor Alisyn Camerota aptly stayed in the game.]
At the end of weekday Fox & Friends yesterday, Clayton and Anna promoted their then upcoming F&FW Saturday with promises of guest appearances of “one of the premier psychics in the world, Laura Lynne Jackson” and of Santa Claus. Concluding the show, a smiling and waving Anna sweetly declared, “Bye, everybody! See you dark and early tomorrow!” But, it was not to be: Clayton and Anna had to leave the field.
When there is explosive hard news to cover, F&FW knows full well that they need to go to their “A Team.” And, today they did–with Jon and Kimberly. But, there is still hope for tech geek Clayton and alluring lovely Anna to make F&FW‘s “A-Team”: After all, Tucker got his call today.

Kilmeade came in on Sunday…not a fan after he insulted women in the military and then a very weak “apology”.

I think this post is premature. Anna was probably allowed a weekend off because she has been doing some substituting for Ainsley, who just had a baby girl. Lea Gabriele (who I greatly respect) has also been doing some filling in on Fox and Friends First. Brian did the weekends because he has been making book tours for his new book. Clayton filled in for Brian on the weekday show, so Brian simply returned the favor.
I do like it when Kimberly fills in. She tries to keep the banter to a minimum and tries to stay on topic. I like Elisabeth Hasselbeck (I am wondering if Ailes has other plans for her, since it seems like she has a substitute at least one day a week), but my first choice for a substitute is Kimberly on the weekdays.
