‘Today’ Is Savannah Guthrie Leaving Show After Hoda Kotb?
Will NBC still be okay as a network if they lose both Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb? Millions of people turn to The Today Show every morning to learn daily tidbits of news. One of the reasons The Today Show has been successful for so many years is that NBC hires news anchors who get the job done well. The Today Show has been around since 1952, and it’s grown more popular and beloved with each passing year. Two fan-favorite news anchors are Savannah and Hoda. Hoda already announced her departure, but is Savannah about to follow in her footsteps?
Details About Savannah Guthrie’s Possible Departure From The Today Show
Savannah has successfully been part of The Today Show since the summer of 2012. Her original career plan was to become a lawyer. She made the abrupt decision to get into broadcasting instead, which ended up being a brilliant swap. However, the latest update about Savannah is that she might have plans to exit The Today Show following Hoda‘s recent retirement announcement.
According to Yahoo! Entertainment, NBC is doing everything in their power to keep Savannah on board since they already know they’ve lost Hoda. One major clue that Savannah’s ready to dip on the network is that she published a book called Mostly What God Does: Reflections on Seeking and Finding in February of this year. In the book, she wrote about “not wanting to overstay her welcome” with the network.
Losing Hoda is already a major loss for NBC, which means losing Savannah could be detrimental for the future of the show. Savannah has proven that she has a high-level of star power, which is part of why she has successfully amassed 1.1 million followers on Instagram.
The good news for fans of The Today Show is that it’s been reported that there’s a high chance Savannah will stay in place on 2024’s television schedule until further notice. After all, she does have a full year left on her contract. Fans on Reddit have weighed in with their opinions about who they think should step in if Hoda and Savannah both officially leave:

- “Love Michelle Collin’s, but idk if she has the work ethic for today. I know she was on the view but not for very long and she seemed to have a negative experience. She’ll need to drastically change her work ethic and what she considers a ‘work day.’
- “I personally think they’ll end up pulling in someone more well known than Michelle to fill the spot. Many people consider it a pretty coveted job. I’d guess they’re casting a much wider net than just people who have been returning guests, but who knows.”
- “Maybe Heather McMahan. Like, I don’t think Heather would move back to NYC to host daily – but maybe I’m wrong.”
