CNN's new series, "Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy" has been reviewed by one of New Zealand's top news websites, Stuff.co.nz. It's unusual for a show on CNN to be reviewed by a mainstream media organisation in New Zealand.

The review concludes: "A show that reminds us that treasures can be found in the most unexpected of places, you’ll have to search out this fabulous series, playing on one Sky channel at less than convenient hours. However, believe me, it is well worth the effort."

CNN will be happy with the sort of exposure this show is getting them. While us regular CNN viewers may see this as part of a decline of live news by CNN, shows like this will help attract new audiences and this should benefit CNNI for the next few years.

WOW! Possibly his first outing on Early Start ever! That is one LONG day for Mr. Blitzer. I guess he and Scuitto could share the rest of the day sharing anchoring duties.

I can't count for sure, but CNN have sent an awful lot of a lot of people on this trip. The list below obviously doesn't include producers, camera operators which I suspect will have been deployed from London and around Europe.

Wolf Blitzer
Jim Scuitto
Kaitlan Collins
Jeff Zeleny
Clarissa Ward
Matthew Chance
Phil Mattingly
Natasha Bertrand

Have I missed anyone?

And the day after he was back in the studio in D.C. That's impressive! Finish late on Wednesday n Geneva and then fly across several timezones and still be in studio the following day.
For a dude in his seventies, he has some stamina!

I note this was shown on CNN International today at 4pm in place of "Reliable Sources" with Brian Stelter.

On Wednesday more repeats of it will replace an hour of New Day, Hala Gorani Tonight and Cuomo Prime Time. By the end of Wednesday the first episode of “Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy” will have been shown 7 times.

I'm sure it's not cost-effective, but I do wish, at times like these, they bring back the split programming per region.
Yeah I don’t think anyone will miss Reliable Sources, but these shows usually work better in the weekends, they shouldn’t be replacing live news shows with factual series like this.

Replacing an hour of New Day and Cuomo Prime Time and Reliable Sources isn't really a bad thing, the only bad thing is replacing Hala Gorani Tonight; they use the one of the hours of "The Lead" instead. I'm also guessing this is for time zones like 7pm Hong Kong, 7pm London, 7pm uh Denver? Since CNN do split regions for programming anymore.


Also, the CNN UK online pay service is out (I might be late in mentioning it) https://edition.cnn.com/specials/live-cnni-uk

about £ 2 a month or a £20 a year package.
So, it’s now confirmed by Cyril Vanier that Your World Today has been axed. Such a pity - they may as well remove the “I” from CNNI!
I don't understand why CNNI are running with 45 minute editions of Quest Means Business at the start of the week and full 60 minute editions on Thursday and Friday.

The reverse would make sense as Friday is a relatively quiet day for business news.

Where has this been confirmed and why? Ludicrous decision, the show had just started.

Sadly I can't say it's a surprise. Even pre pandemic they seemed to take any opportunity to preempt the show to air Wolf & Domestic instead - almost as if they didn't want the show to exist in the first place. A shame though as the show was great and Cyril & Isa were a superb duo.

Cyril seemed to suggest he and Isa will still be presenting pretty frequently but I can't see how that's the case if only Amanpour and Hala's show are airing from London currently and other London anchors like Max and Bianca are also without shows. There don't seem enough slots to go around.

Airing a repeat of Stanley' Tucci's documentary over your supposed flagship European news broadcasts (HGT) anchored by one of your star anchors really is quite emblematic of modern day CNNI. You can there's a great international channel somewhere in there - but too often it plays second fiddle to Domestic and sponsored programming. If I want a world news outlook these days I'm more likely to go to Al Jazeera than CNN - particularly at certain times of the day.

Cyril wrote on Instagram tonight:
"Alas YWT isn't coming back. But you'll still see Isa and me on air, albeit not together."

Isa replied: "The old times rocked. Miss ya."


Just another nail in CNN International's coffin.

It’s so infuriating what’s happening to this channel. The money wasted on the development of shows such as YWT only to be axed without any justification.
Significant news from Newscaststudio about CNN Center in Atlanta.

Well, as many noted, no surprise about the fate of YWT. I don't think Bianca's show is coming back either. This channel has gone to the dogs. Even now, when it's back to ''normal'' scheduling, it feels kinda dead. The line-up of presenters is stale, the presentation boring, the sense of urgency and being there is long gone, the hours of domestic simulcasts longer than ever....

AT&T has messed up Warner Media and they don't have the desire of money to deal with CNN, especially its international stepchild. Selling CNN Center will be a symbolic closure. After that anything goes....
