Actress Jane Fonda woke up the Today show audience this morning when she let a colorful word slip. The best part? She didn’t even blink. She just kept on going…
Unfortunately, host Meredith Viera was forced to clean up the mess later and issued an apology. (You can see that clip after the jump.)

Meredith Vieira’s First Day on the Job
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, NBC, HDTV, Internet, News,
Meredith Vieira woke up a little earlier than usual this morning to start her new gig on the Today show. While I was only able to catch about a half hour of the program, I’d say she’s off to a great start; Internet reviews agree, saying that Vieira had a solid debut. She seemed at ease and comfortable in her surroundings. She’s by no means a newbie at this sort of thing, but she does have big high heels to fill following Katie Couric’s departure. Her rapport with the rest of the Today show gang, her ability to handle tough news, as well as interject levity and silliness when necessary, all bode well for Today and its ratings. She has pretty wide appeal and I’m sure saying things like she felt “like it’s the first day of school and I’m sitting next to the cutest guy” (referring to Matt Lauer) will make her a welcome morning addition.
Today also revealed its studio, all shiny and cool for their venture into high-def. Bright and modern, the colors and furniture are sure to “pop” for high-def viewers.
