‘Live’ Kelly Ripa DEMANDS ‘The View’s TIME Slot, Executive Producer Weighs In

Live With Kelly and Mark host Kelly Ripa is thinking things need to change. She revealed during an episode this week that it would be much better to move their show to a different time slot. It seems she has had an early broadcast slot for many years, so why would she want to switch it up now? Keep reading to see why she made this request and also what the executive producer had to say about it.

Live With Kelly And Mark Kelly Ripa Discuss Getting Physically Fit

Live With Kelly and Mark host Kelly Ripa always says exactly what she thinks. This week, her thoughts have gone to landing a new time slot for her and husband Mark Consuelos. The conversation came about after Mark was talking about working out that morning.

He had mentioned that he worked out prior to coming to shoot the show. Ripa pointed out that it was way too early to work out when he did. She then went on to tease her husband, saying, “What is going on with you? Who are you getting ready for?”

Consuelos said he was originally going to work out that afternoon after they finished the show. However, he decided to go play golf, so he needed to get his workout in extra early. She joked around with him a little more and said, “How you suffer for your craft.”

They Want To Move The Show To A Different Time Slot

Mark told her that working out at 6 am is great. Kelly Ripa did not agree with him at all. She went on to say, “Working out at the time we typically work out is not great. Working out at 6 a.m. isn’t great. Do you know the best workout hour? Right now.”

Mark agreed with her, noting that it would be perfect after having a little coffee and breakfast.

This prompted her to say they should switch time slots with The View. She went on to say, “This job is interfering with my physical fitness, Gelman.” she teased executive producer Michael Gelman.

Consuelos said, “We should move it to, like, 11 o’clock,” he said. “The View won’t mind, right?” Kelly quickly added that, yes, that’s a great idea, and they could swap with The View. She went on to say that if this happened, then she and Mark could be physically fit to host the show.

Chances are this will never happen, but it sure would make Kelly and Mark happy.

Aside from teasing, they want to swap times in order to work out, they have been promoting their new project with their son. It is a soap opera-type audiobook featuring the three of them, plus many more artists.

Since she and Mark met on a soap opera, she feels this is a full-circle moment. She also shared that it goes back to the 90s soap opera style, and they love it.
