Last month there were reports that TJ Holmes and Amy Robach were pitching themselves to other networks after their workplace affair at ABC turned the newsroom upside down [click here if you missed that].
Apparently nobody wants to touch them...
From The NY Post
Major TV networks are steering clear of former “GMA3” co-hosts T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach as the disgraced lovers “desperately” attempt to get back on the air, The Post has learned.
CBS Media Ventures — the syndicate arm of CBS that’s responsible for daytime broadcasts like “Dr. Phil” and “The Drew Barrymore Show” — recently turned down a talk show proposal from the duo, according to sources close to the situation.
Ditto for CNN, which was pitched last month by Holmes and Robach’s talent agency, CAA, insiders said.
“If they did a talk show, what would they talk about? What’s their expertise — infidelity?” a skeptical TV expert said, opining, “They’d take anything. I think they’d host a game show at this point.”
Holmes and Robach also have approached entertainment companies including Fox Entertainment and Fox Television Stations for a syndicated show and met with executives for “general meetings” on “various opportunities” that were not necessarily limited to a dedicated talk show, a source said.
