The Whiny Guy

[Blind Gossip] It is not surprising that there is a lot of turmoil in the TV world right now.

Talk show hosts are doing their shows from home, production on existing series is shut down, and no one knows what is going to happen to the traditional introduction of new shows during the fall TV season.

Much of the industry is out of work and desperate for a paycheck.

Except for this guy. He has a job.

Actually, he has more than one job!

Still, he always finds a reason to complain.

When he starred on a TV show a few years ago, he whined.

Although he had equal billing and air time to [his female costar on First Show], he felt like he was subordinate to her.

Whiny started poking around for other jobs, eventually landed a part-time gig on Second Show.

His First Show costar was not happy. She had really pushed to get Whiny the job on First Show, so she was both annoyed and hurt that he was being so disrespectful by splitting his time and loyalties to go work on Second Show.

Here he was complaining about not being treated equally, all while disrespecting the person who advocated for him AND  sticking her with a larger burden of the work!

All that tension is not good for people whose job it is to be really cheerful and fun in the morning.

Whiny eventually left First Show – and his female costar – on bad terms when he jumped ship to join Second Show full time.

Even after he left, though, he continued to bad mouth First Show and his former costar and whine about his unequal treatment.

After being on Second Show for a while, Whiny got restless again.

He felt like the job wasn’t fulfilling and that he should have a larger role.

Thus, Third Show was born.

He should have been thrilled to be one of the stars of both Second Show and Third Show, right?

Nope!

It turns out that he didn’t like the dynamics of Third Show either. His costars had great chemistry with each other but…

He thought the balance and the chemistry was off. He felt like a third wheel.

Well, Whiny doesn’t have to feel that way any more.

Third Show was just cancelled.

The network will make some excuse about ratings or programming, but [Whiny] just didn’t want to do it any more.

    Are Whiny’s beefs legitimate? Professional? Michael Strahan is NOT professional AT ALL. Bad mouthing Kelly when she had his back! But if she had been a man, he wouldn’t feel “lower to her”. Strahan, I hope you read this. Thank Kelly you were a cohost and your chemistry was amazing! I loved you as the sports guy and she was nonsports! Thank KELLY SHE MADE YOU! THANK KELLY! You COULD’VE…

    So unprofessional. How can he whine about anything when so many TV people are out of work? I used to like him, but knowing this? Pffftt.

    Strahan appears to be a neverending whiner. I don’t watch any of these shows but used to think that he seemed like a nice guy. However, now, all I ever read about him is that he is complaining about something.

    Maybe he should just focus on football. Many others would be grateful for new opportunities. #bye

    This screams Strahan. What a jerk. Don’t forget he also has his NFL commentary gig as well. Hopefully they get rid of him.

  13. gailpow says

    Michael Strahan, who was on Live with Kelly & Michael, is currently on Good Morning America. His TV chatfest, Strahan, Sara and Keke was just cancelled. Strahan also is a football analyst for the NFL. The man is as busy as Steve Harvey!

    Yikes. We have seen many times that ANYONE on morning tv is 100% replaceable. Being a whiny little * isn’t a great look.

    I like him so I would hope his complaints are legit but hey that is business-if he doesn’t look after number 1 no else will and even if he was wrong with the first show Kelly Ripa did not make it any better with her attitude.

    Michael Strahan. And Kelly Ripa. I don’t know what his dealio is – I always liked him on the show with Kelly, but I’m not a sports fan and didn’t watch him after he jumped ship

  49. Yitty Bossy says

    Michael Strahan…His sack record is fake news. Mark Gastineau is the all time single season sack record holder, sorry Strahan.

    Whinny Guy: Michael Strahan

    First Show: Live with Kelly
    Second Show: GMA
    Third Show: GMA. With Michael, Sara, and Keke

    He is not a professional journalist, so he needs to be thankful to Kelly and ABC for allowing him to have a job anyone would dream of being able to get it without any talent. He also needs to remember a younger and sexier guy can come in and replace him, or Ryan Seacrest can take his spot.

    His lost.

    He wants to be the bigger TV star. He needs to earn that title.

  67. katekatekate says

    Michael Strahan.

    Once may have been a legit grievance. Two is pushing it. Three just makes him sound like a whiny diva.

  68. the skeptic says

    Michael Strahan (LOOOOVE him)

    Shows: live w/ Kelly & Michael, American football broadcasts, dunno the 3rd show

    Live w/ Kelly & whoever is a lame show. Michael belongs in football commentary.

    Would have to take his side when it comes to Live.. Seems like diva would be difficult to work with if she doesn’t get her way. Not sure about the other shows.

  73. kellyp says

    Kelly and Michael in the morning, Good Morning America and the show that just got cancelled because no one watched it, LOL.
    I’m not sure if they are legit. Generally though in work situations it’s more productive to come with a solution to the problem than whine about it.
