Behind the Scenes at TODAY
![]()
This week I’ve been filling in for Al Roker on the TODAY Show. What a blast! I thought I’d give you a sneak peek at what it’s like for me behind the scenes at 30 Rock.
The day starts around 5:30 a.m. with a weather briefing by the Weather Master Don Tsouhnikas. Check out the video below to see what we talk about.
OK, after a close look at the graphics for the day I walk across the street to the TODAY dressing rooms. I actually get to borrow Al’s for the day (Thanks Al!). This is where I get logged in, settle down and wait for the show to start.
Well, there actually is one more step before I go on TV. Hair and make-up!
OK, now I’m all ready to go meet the people who really make the show for me…the crowd!
Wow, what a rush. I hope you enjoyed our sneak peek inside morning television's most popular show. See you during the week on MSNBC 12-4 p.m. and also, of course, on NBC Weather Plus.

Jeff-
I think you're good looking enough not to need all that makeup -- HD or not!

Hey Jeff, I couldn't believe I was seeing a fellow KDRV alumn on the Today show! You look great! I don't know how else to get in touch with you so here's hoping...I'm visiting family in NYC this week, I'd love to have coffee and catch up. Email me.
Aloha! Nohe Graf xoxo
