I like Al Roker, but......

He's on the Today show, the Weather Channel, does some things for Discovery and now an outerwear line. How much is enough?
He really is overexposed.

Al is not serious enough . Everything he does is trying to make someone laugh . The weather channel is now political .
With Al on board I think the weather channel will not be taken serious and many veiwers like my self will not tune in . Al Roker is the Richard Simmons of weather . Next he will have a reality show !!!

I'm really surprised by the nasty remarks made about good ol' Al Roker! I think he is funny and one of the nicest guys on T.V.! Seriously! He seems to be a great choice for this particular kind of clothing line. He always dresses very stylishly and it seems appropriate that a weather man would endorse this 'weather line' of outerwear. You go Al! I think your great!

He's a happy sort, but who wouldn't be? He's black, dumb as dirt and makes several million a year doing a half-ass job of everything. Each time NBC gives him something new to do I cringe. This is a guy who should fall to his knees and thank God, or whatever his higher power is, for all his lucky breaks. There are far more talented folks out there sleeping on the streets.

I ROARED WITH YOUR COMMENT. HOW TRUE. HE HAD HIS STOMACH SURGERY, LOST A TON OF WEIGHT, GAINED IT BACK AND IT'S TRUE, BLACK, DUMB AS A ROCK AND IS ABOUT AS INTELLIGENT AS A ROCK. HIS "OUTERWEAR" WILL BE OUT BEFORE IT'S IN.

To think this toad has made a good living doing absolutely nothing physical his entire life. OOps! He did slam them hot dogs down. Only in america can a no talent toad like Roker succeed at a lifetime of nothingness.

The guy is dumb as dirt. Smart ass mouth. Has to put people down on the today show to make himself feel like he isn't a big fat waste of skin. and does it thinking it's funny. What a looser..wish he would get his pink slip and just go away.

Bill,

You can't spell the word "loser". I guess that makes you a "looser"....

before you call someone else a "looser" you should learn how to spell.

Why do so many weathermen think they have to be comedians? Roker is probably a very nice person, but he is an annoying buffoon on television. I used to enjoy the TODAY show, but now Al, Meredith and Ann have all worn very thin. I wish it was simply THE MATT LAUER SHOW. Matt is a class act. Can't get enough of Matt, but I've definitely had enough of Roker. I mean, really, just because he wears a raincoat does have to sell them? ENOUGH AL!!!
