10 Split screen with audio includes Bernie, Lou and Warner,
9 Actual lighting at the WABC studios,
8 Awesome set (now that Fox fixed that annoying background scroll),
7 Larger studio allows musical guests to play indoors,
(Imus rants on F&F acts on the street are priceless)
6 Broadcasting in HD provides clearer picture and improved sound,
5 Fox Business reporters are into the show…
(Dagen McDowell, Jenna Lee, Connell McShane they get it!)
4 Fox Execs and I-Favs Cavuto and Glick come through big time,
3 Tony opening up on race and Rob addressing the Gangsta Mickey,
2 Imus back bickering with Charles again,
1 More guests, consistently better then before.
Thanks for the new thread ChannelXRFR.
Hey ChannelX,
Good to see you back blogging. I like Hottie McBusiness LOL!
I need a screen grab of the Imus’s graphic that comes up with a bulls horns, and imus street signs and a blow horn it. That is a cool graphic but FBN hasn’t put it up on their website. Who is responsible for the graphic work for Imus In The Morning on Fox Business News?
I know Bigfoot makes it all work but who is providing the graphics?
It is a great show, good music, interesting guests. I like Sandra Smith, also.
And Gangster Mickey is a riot.
Now if they can just Bernie a microphone stand.
Thanks X for the update. Unfortunately I don’t have FBN, but I’m still listening on the radio.
I love Imus and Charles bickering – it makes me laugh every time. I’m not so happy with the guests though, but I do love Doris Kearns Goodwin.
Bernie needs to be more involved with the show. He’s the best! Where’s Cardinal Egan? I think I’ve seen Nagin once but it was a short bit.
I also like Sandra Smith.
Welcome back X. Hope you are well.
Love the show on Verizon 617. Fox does an amazing production job. Really top notch and better than ever. One downside to HD is you can really see how skinny Imus is. Yikes. A few good steaks would go a long ways at this point. I sure hope this works out well over time. We’ll see….
Agree with others that Sandra Smith is doing well. Of course, she could be Imus’s grand daughter. LOL!
Sandra Smith is either Imus’ grand daughter or his next wife, JK.
She’s very good, great presence, good timing, prepared, strong performances, gives as good as she gets.
Talk about taking it, Bernie compares Dagen McDowell to Mortica Adams, my heart stopped for a couple of beats thinking its all over for Imus. Dagen turned it right around, saying she’s actually masqueraded as Morticia! Then she follows up with a comment about Casper (Bernie) and Morticia at the same party. She also flings shots a Imus including well timed mentions of casket sales at WalMart.
Imus needs a coffee sponsor or a coffee maker sponsor. Imus already has Bigelow Tea.
Lou Dobbs quit CNN effective immediately- last show tonight. I hope Imus has him on soon. His contract with CNN wasn’t set to be up till 2011. I really don’t have a reason to watch CNN now.

Hello, everyone, especially the long-lost ChanX!! LOVED your post – thank you. I totally agree with your top 10.
I was leary of him going on FBN, but I think it is going well – so far. I agree – Bernie needs on more – Bernie and Lou….Lou is hilarious, too. And I love Lou’s infectious laugh.
I wish they would put Tony and Rob out there more with Charles and I-man – they could contribute a lot more, but it sounds like Charles nixed that.
It just seems like it is more and more like the old show…..yeah!!
Agree about Sandra Smith, but noone gives it back like Dagan, and she does it so tastefully…..she just has a really good sense of humor (about herself).
Great to see comments from everyone….hope to see more……especially ChanX.
We need your wisdom.

Fun 8pm hour! Cardinal Egan is back tomorrow! Woohoo!
I agree, Dagan is better at sparring with the gang but I don’t want her taking over for Sandra lol…
I mean 8am hour.
OMG! You guys and girls are still here. Was just reading through comments on another blog and the return of ChannelX was mentioned. I haven’t been to ImusTimes in months-thought it was gone forever! It’s like finding old friends you haven’t heard from in a long time. (Sappy, I know) I too am really enjoying his new Fox show. I would like NBC and others to lift their ban on their people being on his show. I miss Richard Engel and Col. Jacobs. The guest selection is not as balanced as I would like, but, baby steps…… I will always appreciate RFD-TV for stepping up when they did, but it is so much better now. (No more cows!) Anyway, the Cardinal tomorrow! Now that Imus is a saint, does that change the dynamics? Bobbie
Since I have been a bit under the weather I have not been posting. So for those that do not hear the Radio portion of the show here is Friday’s November 6th 9 O’clock hour.
