I think Jeff is exactly what the morning show needed! Just knowing who will be on the news in the morning, I do not press nooze anymore. I think Jeff Thelen is a perfect fit for the morning news show!

Jeff does a great job in the morning with Bao. I was glad to see him get out there and dance the other morning. My wife says I'm built like a fire hydrant and dancing is not my cup of tea because I'm so low to the ground. You looked great Jeff. I'm impressed. Ron

"Built like a fire hydrant." As the kids would say, LOL! J

Jeff, can you tell me who wrote the "Tirty Point Buck". Some say it was the Yoopers, but I heard that it was a couple of Stevens Point students. Also, since you are in a more relaxed atmosphere in the morning, could we have a few Grandma Thelen stories? Maybe some of here recipes? Too bad there aren't two of you so you could be on Morning and night.

Keep on going .... talk about God!! We need that now. I will watch more often if this station shows respect for God.

I was watching the morning show today and was disappointed by Scott's comment about the station's mention of "angels" and your "God Bless". Personally I believe in God and angels and am glad for any God Bless you want to give America and it's residents. America can always use God's help and mercy.

I think the new name of your show should be "Sunrise at 5"

I LOVE Jeff on the morning show! He is my inspiration to get up and get my treadmill work in:) Love the "As the rooster crows" title sent in by someone!! How does your dog like the walking schedule change??? Welcome Jeff. The morning crew will keep it interesting!

Thanks for the kind words. Baillie's fine with the move. And even before my new shift we didn't walk as much anymore. She's got a few years on her and can't really take it. J

I REALLY miss Jeff on the nightly news casts. Him and Sue were PERFECT together. I don't watch the morning show so I really miss his talent. Wish they would put him back with Sue!!!

Not having Sue as a co-anchor anymore is a bummer, but it is fun working with Bao. And Mikel will due fine in my old shift. J

I'm really saddened that Jeff is no longer on the evening news. He was the reason I watched channel 7. I don't even watch anymore. I hope it was his choice to move to the morning show. Nothing will ever be better than Wendy and Bill were on the morning show though - that was the perfect pairing.

Who is even up at 5 and 6 in the a.m. to watch TV. I'm switching channels as so many of us looked forward to Jeff's personality, delivery and professionalism. Many of us are switching. Wrong move-Channel 7. You're going to lose people by taking Jeff off the 5 & 6 news casts. He has quite a following and you blew it.

I agree with Bill in Wausau, Channel 7 has shuffled their personnel around a lot. Jeff will do a great job at any time slot. But this move will still not get me back for the Morning Show.

Hey Jeff, sorry to see that you are leaving the 5 & 6 news spot. I get up early so I can still catch you. How about considering this name: "The Up-N-AtUm" morning show. Just a thought. Thanks Jeff for reading this. Rick

early show new name" 7 at Sunrise "

Your morning staff is great and Jeff just makes it better. Also, keep Michael Jackson off and keep Jeff T. on.

Posted by: Jane Hafenbredl I think Jeff returned to the am show to save it. He brings back his skills, including being well liked and followed, back to the am show. They needed help and Jeff can give it.

I agree, jeff was probably moved. They had to do something with that dead pan morning show. But it seems a waste to move such a talented person as Jeff from the 5 and 6 show where there is such a big audience. Seems like channel 7 is really going to hurt that time slot. But it doesn't really surprise me, Ch. 7 has made alot of strange personnel moves in the last year.

If Jeff went to the Morning Show by his request I'm ok with it. If he was forced to the Morning Show I am irrate. His excellent fun loving personality and talent in delivering the news make him a perfect fit with Susan Ramsett. If I find that he was forced off the evening news I will no longer watch Channel 7. That's saying something because I have been a loyal Sir 7 viewer for over 50 years. Please let me know the circumstances of his move so I can make my decision.

I don't like Jeff on the morning show. I really miss him at 5 and 6. The evening news isn't the same without him. It was "fun" to watch the news even the sad and bad news he made easy to take. I no longer watch Channel 7 news. If it was Jeff's wish then I understand him moving to morning's but if not then I don't like it at all.
