Charlie Rose does mornings? This can't end well.

"CBS This Morning." Charlie Rose does mornings? This can't end well. [NYT] Seriously, does anyone else think this is a major problem? I mean Charlie Rose, the king of evening night roundtable discussion, should NOT be doing mornings. First off, there's the obvious question: What is this going to do to his social life? Mr. Rose is the KING of late night (TV and philanderings), and I'm worried his early am wake up time is going to significantly affect his ability to continue to deliver when the sun goes down. Second, let's point out the obvious, seating Rose next to Gayle King?! This significantly cheapens this host. Charlie, take it from me and forget middle America. Get off of the am news beat and get back to evenings where you belong. From the Times:
First shows are always tough, and especially in this case allowances have to be made for shock: seeing Mr. Rose outside his usual lugubrious, black-swathed studio and on a brightly lighted morning show set is a little like seeing a polar bear on South Beach — a familiar species in the wrong habitat
