The biggest problem with Watkins' episode as guest host was that she's not a broadcaster. Her duties as host consisted mainly of introducing and briefly interviewing the musical guests - neither of which she seemed especially comfortable at. She seemed nervous and not in control of the show... and while Keillor's presence may have been part of the reason, it wasn't the only reason. -Tim -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
