80s Photos
I’m not sure why my memories of the 80’s are crystal-clear yet my photos are so blurry. Apparently camera technology has radically improved since the 80’s and now you can actually SEE the subjects in photos. Here’s what you need to know about these photos. In the first one, I’m with my Mom (the woman who looks like my sister standing to my right), my 8-year-old cousin Kristin and my beloved late grandparents, Gram and Poppy. We’re on our annual vacation to the Jersey-shore hotspot of Wildwood, NJ. Those were very happy, sunny times. I often wore leopard print in the 80s, even at the beach, apparently. The photos from Prom Night are noteworthy for the size of my hair. It has almost as many layers as my dress. Even my boyfriend has big hair and of course the requisite white tux. The picture to the left of the prom pic is me with my first love Sam (doing his best Ric Ocasek impersonation). This is not Sam and me heading to a retro costume party — this is really how we dressed to go out! Yes, that’s a choker I’m wearing and yes, that’s a Members Only jacket on Sam. The last picture is of course the most shocking because I haven’t seen abs like that in decades (and I’m not talking about Greg’s to my right). I can only hope the muscles still exist somewhere under the layer of flesh I’m now sporting. See, that was BEFORE three children. Oh, and you can’t beat the standard-issue 80’s trademarks also seen in the pic: the Wayfarer sunglasses and my Joan Jett mullet. Enjoy.






Happy July 2nd to Alisyn!!!
It’s just one day closer to Friday for me and I am happy about that!!!!!!!!!!
Without a doubt the new kind of candidate is revealing himself as the quintessential politician. Not sure why so many have been so slow to recognize that fact. His whole life appears to be one political move after another.
For some reason I had my cable set to the ‘80s last night. I don’t care who you are that thar was some good music! Lol
You were a living doll in your prom dress, but your hair was bigger than you. :;
Agreed!
Al, your prom picture reminds me of the Seinfeld episode (The Fix-Up) where Elaine sets George up with a girlfriend on a blind date. George asks Jerry “How’s her hair, if you put your hand in her hair could you get it out?” Jerry responds “Do you want to be able to get your hand out?”
I am not sure if one could get their hand out of your prom hair. Love the “do”!!!
And that was without spray!
Alisyn, You are with out a doudt the most beautiful woman on the network. you look absolutely stunning today and i love the pic from the prom. brings back memories. I love the red dress!!!!. Will you answer just about anything truthful on here. Dont worry its not x rated
I reserve the right to plead the 5th.
Not sure what the headlines will be this weekend but I bet a few will have to do with Obama and McCain. Hey, I took the easy way out on that one. lol
Not the headlines — more like the coverage of the headlines. That’s what FOX News Watch deals with.
Good morning Ms. Alisyn,
I’ll have to wait until I get home to see the show, but I do TIVO all 3 hours today and tomorrow.
I agree with Marshall. Obama is nothing any newer rthan anyother politican. Every word, every move and every action is all carefully planned.
He still is getting a pass from most the media on his lie, yes lie, no other word for it, on using public funds to run his WH bid on.
If McCain had done that you wouldn’t hear the end of it.
Have a great day and I’m looking forward to seeing your pictures tonight.
chas
The biggest story of the week has to be the girl in Vermont and the hospital ididots who let a woman die right there in the ER. Ali dont get sick love and go to Cook County. You might get Cooked at County before we ever no what is really cooking!…So sad
Its always fun to see how we looked, in my case, way back when. I had lots of pics from the 70’s, but not from the 80’s. I guess that was my lost time?
I’ve always had a hard time believing anything any politician says. It’s not surprising they change their views or positions. It looks like Sen Obama is trying hard to make himself more mainstream. On the Gen. Clark episode, it strikes me as hypocritical what he said about Sen. McCain, yet Sen. Obama has no qualifications to be President at all.
We won’t be able to watch this weekend as we are going to Gulf Shores, AL for a few days of sun and beach. Happy 4th Alisyn!
Good Morning Lady in Red! (Wasn’t that a song in ‘86? and “Woman in Red” a movie in ‘84?)
Alisyn that you have even 4 photos from the 80s is better than me. I think the lack of photos shows we were too busy having fun to take pics. (Well that is my story and I am sticking to it. LOL)
What I was listening to in the 80s was “The Police”, “Dire Straits”, “The Cars”, “Oingo Boingo”, “Genesis”, and Eric Clapton. (Sure Clapton is more than the 80s but he was rocking it out then too!)
How has the 80s week gone this far without any mention of the greatest figure from that decade, Max Headroom? He also turned a series of commercials into a TV series.
Hey Aly, Can I be your Sledgehammer?
Opps the phone is ringing…. It is Viena Calling! Rock Me Amadeus!!
Hi Alisyn, look forward to see you host fox news as you are my favorite to watch. Us bostonians must stick togeather . Big news story wil lbe contination of politcal coverage though t obe honest I think everybody is getting tired of the whole process and alck of resolve among the two parties t osolve our issues but rather spend time and money scoring politcal points; but we never get tired of watching you.all the best and I just stop by to say Hi
Thanks Peter. Bostonians Unite!
Speaking of pictures Ms. Alisyn, mine didn’t scare you too badly this morning, I hope not any way.
chas
No, it was great Chas! But you must have petrified the producers — not sure why they didnt use it.
Good morning Alisyn, Whenever our tv is on we have it on Fox!!!! Love Fox news watch, we will be watching… The 80’s are a blur to me busy running three kids to all their activities, didn’t have much time to watch…. we do have a pound puppy sitting on our spare bedroom bed, the grandkids love it… Happy 4th. to everyone!!!! McCain all the way in 08!!!!
Thanks Sherrie!
Good Morning,
Clark attacked McCains Military record and then Obama tries to look honorable by saying he doesnt endorse Clarks comments, Please, it was a cordinated attack on McCains Military record, Obamas campaign is behind it all the way,
and one more thing Obama is to far to the left to move to the center, because Obama is a Carter like candidate.
Sal
To be a bit more serious this morning I would like to point out that the two news lead stories this morning, the bulldozer terrorist attack in Jerusalem, and Sheley & the 8 murder spree case, show that for those that want to kill a gun is not needed. They will find a way.
Alisyn, I think this morning you already hit on the big story of the news stories for this week is the flip-flops by McCain and Obama on campaign issues.
Good mornig alisyn
red is definitely your color you look great thie morning as every other morning will look forward to seeing you host Fox News Watch any show you host is better when you are on it
good morning marshall and chas
Thanks Pat!
Morning Sal.
Morning Marshall.
Morning Mr. Malone.
Morning Pat.
Good Morning Alisyn,
Chas and Marshall,
one of my favorite songs in the 80’s was, let the music play,
remember that one, I heard it on the show this morning.
Sal
Morning chas
How can you show the 80’s without playing JOURNEY music. They were the hottest in the 80s. The music I have heard thus far isn’t anything I even remember hearing and I don’t remember those artists. Try some Steve Perry (the voice) music.
I love what you are doing for “Patriotism”—-totally fantastic. It is wonderful that you all care and show you care about this country and it’s values and what makes it a GREAT COUNTRY—-THANK YOU!!
I am a big fan—watch from 6:00 am – 9:00 am EVERY DAY!!
Please play some JOURNEY music.
Let me get Toba on that!
Good morning mike and sal
Mornin’ Pat, Chas, Sal, Malone, John Boy……
Good Morning Alisyn:
Have you noticed how angry the liberals media types are? That liberal talk show host looked like he was constipated, and his rhetoric was just reeked with anger. The same goes for Al Franken, Ariana Huffington and the chick from Minnesota was was fired for her comments about Hillary.
Can they not come up with any reason to support their positions, or do they think that anger alone will convince independents they are right?
(This is not to say that the conservative side doesn’t have people who come across as kooks, they just are not anyone who sticks in your mind for very long.)
Have a great day.
Has there been any mention this week of the “Brat Pack” from the 80s?
I don’t think there was a movie made in the 80s that wasn’t either an action movie or something with members of the ‘brat pack’.
“The Breakfast Club” & “St Elmo’s Fire” are two of the biggest ‘Brat Pack’ movies from the 80s.
Good morning Alysin and a big ole Hi to chas who is my favorite guy,
I have to admit I do get tired of the same news stories over and over again. But that is the way of the world right now. I try to tune out the election stuff. After the convention is over—-I will do my own research and then decide who I think is the best choice. But I was amazed to see James Dobson in the news. When my kids were young he was known in our church family as a good author about families. We had a film seriers by him about raising children. I had no idea he had gained such fame.
My heart breaks for the family of the missing 12 year old girl in Vermont. I am not even sure more coverage is in the best interest of the family—-but I would like to think it may warn another family of the dangers of the internet. It is very easy to get sucked into a relationship that does not really exist for any good reasons. People are lonely in our over crowded world and women seem to be the most vunerable.
The Democrats have planned this strategy to smear McCain all along. Oh, now John Kerry–he was a REAL war hero. BLEEUCCHH….
The 80’s–I had 4 kids in 7 years. I have no recollection of ANYTHING until 1988 when the motherhood fog lifted. Even in pictures from then I see myself but have no recollection of ever being there. Those were the years I drank my bourbon out of Tommy Tippee cups (cuz I couldn’t find a glass). By ‘88 all were potty trained and could brush their own teeth and life could go on.
That prom dress Ali–it looks like Joan Collins revenge and you certainly can’t say that “do has fallen and it can’t get up”
You’re right. My hair defies gravity!
Hi Marshall & Pat
Alisyn, please quit calling that piece of heavy equipment a bulldozer. A bulldozer is on tracks, and has a blade. The piece of equipment used in the attack in Jerusalem is a caterpillar rubber tired front end loader.
That complicates the story too much
Cowboy – I was thinking the same thing earlier. It is always the extreme liberals that come across as angry and you would think those tree huggers would be all about love and peace. Go figure…..
Is “Lou Pizza Man” and Sgt. Evans and DHL like the greatest peeps on earth or what??? Just sent money via Paypal. Go here http://www.pizzas4patriots.com.
Morning Eileen, my favorite gal.
chas
That poor little girl in VT didn’t have a chance, being surrounded by so many creeps and apparently women that didn’t much care what was going on right under their noses. I read that affidavit given by the other girl and that turned my stomach! Made me think of the odd timing with the supreme Court’s decision about child rape.
Alisyn, please quit calling that piece of equipment used in the attack in Jerusalem a bulldozer. A bulldozer is mounted on tracks, and uses a blade to push earth. The actual weapon used was a Caterpillar rubber tired front end loader which uses a bucket.
They are Marshall, they’d love to see conservatives go away and they love to take a larger peace, (piece) of your paycheck.
chas
Ali,
When ZZ Top does the remake of the “Legs” video I am sure you are the only woman out there qualified to be the star of the video who gets her man!!!! You have legs!!!!
Gretchen could play one of the 3 female heriones in the Eliminator Ford!!!!
Good Morning Eileen,
As long as the 12 yr old Vermont girl is missing I don’t think coverage is bad.
Knowing that there seemed to be problems with her uncle and step father leads me to think she might have run away from home to avoid the danger that they posed. She may still be running/hiding afraid of them. Maybe she doesn’t know they have been arrested. Or maybe she doesn’t feel that will keep her safe, knowing how the system sometimes treats the victims of sexual assault.
Some newsworthy events this week to cover on the weekend:
1. 15 of 18 benchmakrs achieved in Iraq and goes largely unnoticed by mainstream media and Democrats.
2. Harry Reid’s comments on “coal makes us sick”
3. Obama’s rush to the center and his continued flip flops. Rush Limbaugh did a great comparison of this on his radio show yesterday.
4. Dying man in emergency room at hospital.
It will be good to see Alisyn this weekend. Who normally host that show? Btw, where is Ali? Is she trapped in the 80’s?
I don’t think you want to see my pictures from the 80’s. Had way too much fun.
I think the talk will be about the Obama/Clark comments. I think Obama knew exactly what Clark was going to say so he could look like the big man and rebuke such terrible things. Especially if it has to do with being patiotic. After everything that everybody has said, it seems to be a trail that leads straight to Obama’s campaign. How can he not know about these things.
By the way, my favorite music group from the 80’s was The Traveling Wilbury’s.
Anybody remember them?
Of course.
Anyone getting a watermelon this weekend?
TV show of the 80’s the best was Miami Vice.
Good Morning
Pat and Mike,
and can you guys play some Journey music for Judi, great band.
Sal
marshall
i am sure you have started a trend and the farm stands will be sold out
Good choice Cowboy. I had all but forgotten about them.
chas
Something that I think would be an interesting segment on ‘Fox News Watch’ would be a comparison of the way the media has covered the flooding in the upper midwest as compared to the coverage of the flooding in New Orleans.
The mid-west flooding coverage has been much less dramatic. We haven’t seen Shep or other news anchors on the ground covering it. Could it be that flooding in many, many small towns isn’t as “sexy” as one city being flooded?
Only 2 minutes until our Queen of the blog shares her photos. Not that I am counting down.
IT IS FUNNY THAT BUSH WAS GIVEN A HARD TIME ABOUT NOT SERVING IN COMBAT. OBOMA HAS NEVER EVEN BEEN IN THE RESERVES.
Alisyn,
Technically, the terrorist in Israel was on a front-end loader—not a bulldozer. So says my husband who has worked in construction for almost 40 years. Just a minor item.
Also, the Mike guy from Air America is a real idiot. Just thought I’d tell you in case you didn’t pick up on it by yourself.
Is your husband named Harry, by chance?
Dallas Cowboy,
I sure recall The Traveling Wilbury’s! I recently got their CD that was re-released.
Lots of good songs by some big names combining together to make that band.
Howdy Alisyn, and all other bloggers.I enjoy reading your comments.
Al (I hope you do not mind me being presumptuous with your name) but I love Fox News Watch because of the insight but add a moderator with brains & beauty….just tell Cal & Jim no drooling!
Good luck & what a holiday weekend it will be with 30 minutes of Alisyn on Saturday, happy 5th of July to Camerota fans.
Actually John McCain must be getting a boost from all this talk about his military service record! I would only imagine that the rather proliferous coverage of this story is only serving to make people realize that the Obama campaign is orchestrating it and they are going to begin to see what type of underhanded people the Democrats are. John McCain is getting a lot of free attention in the media right now!
Another failed attempt by the Democrats to run down the Republicans, so they can get in power and accomplish just what they have always accomplished, “ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!”
Mike Malone….
I never thought about that all. What a insightful way to think. As much as I abhor the thought of someone doing anything to a young girl, I would rather think about her hinding somewhere in that beautiful state.
Whoa BABY!!!!!!
What sunglasses are you talking about Al? I prefer the post three kid Alisyn & I am sure Mr. C. would agree, he better. thanks for sharing the great pics & thank God for DVR’s!
Alisyn I am so jealous. You haven’t changed one bit. What is your secret?
alisyn
you definitely have improved with age you are lovlier today than in the 80s
You’re wonderful. Oh, and I think it’s time to get your eyeglass prescription adjusted.
Ali you really know how to kill a guy with a dangle…WOW
Yep, i want an autographed pic of the bathing suit, and a follow up pic after the kids. Your’e hot, you’re beautiful and you should run for Ms. America. You are a DOLL!
Maybe Ms. Alisyn is busy using photo shop on her pictures…lol
Forget that watermelon………
I’m conservative and a Vietnam veteran. Put together it does not change either one. However, when you put the U. S. in front of a name or organization, you talk about all of my family.
I’ve listened to all the conversation about what Clark, and I’ve read available transcripts. I did not see an attack on any part of McCain’s service. I herd praise from both Clark and Rangel.
Enough, this has gon too far. Let’s find another topic for political bloviation!!!
Larry
Gwen, you are absolutely right about “the Mike guy.” I recently listened to the left station on Sirius — just to be fair and balanced. I couldn’t believe not only the hatred with total lack of substance but also the disgusting language. I even heard someone call Jenna Bush a vile name because of the publicity at the time of her wedding! We listened all the way from Denver back to Kansas — I was in the back seat and had no control over the radio! During the entire drive I did not hear one logical argument or specific plan to solve our problems.
Hot D__! I knew those photos would be worth the wait!
Once I pulled my tongue back in to my mouth (Although the drooling continues!)
A huge hit from the 80s immediately came to mind! “The Boys of Summer”
“I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin in the sun
You got your hair combed back and your
Sunglasses on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you
Will still be strong after the boys of
Summer have gone”
Don Henley’s “Buliding the Perfect Beast” was a huge album in 86 with many hits.
I think Joan Jett had an Alisyn mullet. She wanted to be as pretty as you. Yours was a whole lot better looking by a long shot.
She’s always copying me.
Alisyn, your a knockout BEAUTIFUL lady, back then and Now.
Sal
I have the feeling that Alisyn and her photo will be figuratively, and maybe even literally, heating up the internet today.
Who needs watermelon? We got Alisyn!
Good morning Alysin,
I don’t remember John McCain talking much about his military service. Hummm….so whatsup with these people? Ah! Yes, politics as usual, of course. His service speaks to his character I must think? Yes, of course, and nothing else. Did he decide to make the military a career? Well, no he didn’t, but it is a part of the fabric of the man we see, me thinks? Is it necessary to have made this particular journey to be qualified to be president? I don’t think so. A person can be of good character and honorable without having experienced being a prisoner of war. Like most soldiers, he doesn’t like to talk about it much, and doesn’t consider himself a hero….and that is very normal. None of the soldiers I know, and I know a few, talk about their experience. It is tucked away, and although a part of their fabric of life, it does not define their life. I hope we are all aware the General Clark is not a man of character or honor? He is a general…and will always be a general. With that, his responsibility is greater than the average citizen, perhaps, and he has demonstrated that he, indeed, is neither a man of good character or honor. He has successfully changed the dialog from the important issues this country faces, to whether or not the journey has made John McCain a better man. I suppose if the jr senator from Illinois doesn’t have to do anything but make pretty speeches, this serves his run for office very very well? Yes, I think so. To believe that it is not orchestrated by the jr senator and his minions, is ridiculous, and does speak volumes about his lack of character and honor. We are reminded yet again, we simply must listen, think and discern. These are not anonymous people, after all. They are part of his campaign, and he is responsible for their behavior. As we enjoy the birth of our nation, and celebrate the hero’s of…we need to look closely at these men, and decide just who brings to the office the tools needed to protect this land from the evil that lurks just beyond our boarders…and decided that New York was an excellent target as a first strike within our actual boarders. We know it wasn’t really their first strike, but it certainly got our attention!!! We must be able to protect and defend, or all is lost for sure. I just paused to fix my hero father breakfast. He is eighty five now, a war hero. His aircraft was shot up, he was wounded, and his spotter was mortally wounded. He managed to fly his crippled aircraft back from behind enemy lines, and land on an obscure field dug out of the side of a mountain. Does this experience qualify him to be president? OF COURSE IT DOES!!! I admit, however, a huge huge bias. He is more qualified today, with Alzheimer’s, than the jr senator from Illinois will ever be, however, and of that I am positive! lol
Great pictures-brings back memories of my prom 30 years ago! We just had our 30 year class reunion.
Only thing that would have made Shannon’s song better would have been a cameo with Brian K being a backup dancer-how funny would that have been?! Happy 4th of July. God Bless America!
Shannon still sounds and looks great.
Sal
ROTFLOL!!
Alisyn I think you forgot one to post one of the photos from this morning. Not sure which one it is, but I am sure there was one more.
Alisyn if you want to post a “then and now” photo I don’t think any of us guys would complain.
Ms. Alisyn,
I see that not much has changed. You were an atractive lady then and remain so today.
Thanks for sharing those with us.
chas
Alisyn,
Let me say that you did an amazing Farrah hair style! To the MAX! How talented you are! I love the picture of your dad, he looks so Daddish there, like a proud papa.
The ribs and brisket, beans, potato salad (german no mayo only pickles bacon and vinegar), pies, watermelon and maybe some homemade vanilla ice cream will be ready at the homeplace about 1 CST.
DH and the kids will be doing the BBQ with mesquite of course, I plan on having a blast!
Thank you Kathy. But the man featured in the pics is my grandfather — Poppy.
I second the writer about the flood coverage on News Watch (which I never miss). The people in the midwest just seem to suck it up and get on with the cleanup. No mass exodus to Houston I notice (or Chicago or Omaha or wherever). I do think the footage was dramatic (family gasping several times at coverage) but the hysterics (or hystrionics I should say) on display continually with the Katrina debacle were just too much sometimes and over the top.
Christie Brinkley in the news for her divorce trial.
Kim Alexis on the show today promoting her show on TVLand.
Both famous for being on the cover of SI Swimsuit in the 80s, but we now know that the hottest swimsuit babe was hiding out in NJ and never was on the cover of SI. Eat your hearts out Kim, Christie, Elle McPherson and all the 80s super models from SI Swimsuit. You have been dethrowned!
Here’s to Alisyn, Queen of the blog! Queen of our hearts!
good morning gini
ali why are you guys so critical of the men who like lower extremities? you think we r weird? your hones t opinion please…Thanks
Huh?
Good morning Pat..and Chas, Eileen, Mike Malone, Sal…and all my fellow bloggers on this beautiful morning, made more so by Alysin’s presence, and the fact I am off for the next two days…don’t quake too much! I go back to work on Monday, so you won’t have that many days to put up with? I am having a marvelous time on this most wonderful place to be. And the very very smart people who come here to muse. Yes! lol
Me, like all the other men that frequent Ali’s blog, love her for her mind, but would sure like to see that bikini picture posted……. life size………. in 3D!
There is that pic! Alisyn had abs of steel!
Alysin,
Surely no one is surprised the people in the Midwest would calmly go forward? Of course they would/do. I don’t recall the other states hit by Katrina going on either…just New Orleans. Being a port city, existing below sea level, it is no surprise that there would be critical news coverage. I didn’t have a problem with that at all. The problem was the governor and the mayor of. Not to worry, however, HE was elected again, even though he failed miserably to protect his city and it’s people. He together with his partner in crime, the governor, should have been put in jail, for their failure to “protect and defend” their city and state. So, does anyone know exactly where all the fed funds went that were supposed to be used to fix the levies? to help stay the ocean from? Haven’t heard a word, have we. lol
To tell the truth, I don’t really keep up with the names of all the FGox News programs, but I know the faces associated with each. Who is the regular host for Fox News Watch and will you have guest?
Nice Pictures Alisyn Camerota,
It was great having you cover Jerusalem today !
Thank you Ami — is that where you’re writing from?
Alisyn, Chas, Marshall, Pat, Gini,Mike,
its time to go work, no rain in Ohio today?
have a great day everyone.
Sal
Take care Sal.
No Sal…not so far. The sun is out and it is a beautiful day. However, we know it could change is a sec!!! Part of the joy and dismay of living in this beautiful state of Ohio. Yeppers! And we LOVE IT, I say!!! Yes, we do. It is an adventure in, whether to bring the umbrella into the office with, or leave it in the car. Hummmm…I stopped fighting that battle years ago, when I discovered I wasn’t “sweet enough to melt” if I got wet!!!!!! Just smile at the irony of, yep! And have still “not melted”…so, even after alllllllllll these years, apparently not “sweet” enough yet. Probably no danger of becoming, either!!! ~~smile~~ and that is a fact!!!!
:)
Hey Ali,
Awesome pictures, you were just as beautiful then as you are now, I bet you drove the boys crazy!! I’m thinkin your abs aren’t that much different now from then, it appears you try to keep yourself in pretty good shape. Have a great day and thanks for the blast from your past!
For some unknown reason I am really wanting some ribs, brisket, beans, potato salad (german no mayo only pickles bacon and vinegar), pies, watermelon and maybe some homemade vanilla ice cream this morning.
Morning fellow bloggers. The pic of Alisyn in a swim suit got my attention! Just hope she wasn’t like 12 or something at the time. Would be a mental problem for me.
Anyway, who has better legs: Megyn Kelly or Alisyn?
Marshall…I am guilty of the same thing. Opps! And not very polite I realize, but so it goes. Face recognition…and since my back is to the t.v., voice recognition? Yes, that is true…must try to do better probably. I do get some exercise however, running back and forth from…yes, I think so! I wish I could spell that word…excersise…see? Another red line!!!! Apparently my brain just doesn’t like that word, and MY abs certainly could attest to that for sure!!! And after six kids, Alysin, I need more than exercise (third try, got it right!!), I need a TUMMY TUCK!!!!! I wonder if duct tape would work? I could just tape it all up around my waist? ~~laughing out loud now~~ and wouldn’t that be a hoot??? OH MY GOSH!!! Another use for, and we alllllll love duct tape!!! So many uses…..:):):) Must try that and report back!
:)
Wellllllllllllll…the puter is stuck and the comment won’t go away. Might post twice? Oh well…won’t be the first time I didn’t do it correctly!! Probably won’t be the last either ~~smiling~~~ so sorry folks..:(
Six kids, Gini???
Sounds like a rather heavy breakfast Marshall.
Any chance you could locate those outfits and model them on the air ?????????
PS: For some reason I have always found those chokers to be quite sexy on a beautiful woman (such as yourself).
I just got through planning my Saturday. Breakfast with Ainsley, early lunch with Jamie Colby and dinner with Alisyn! Toss in a few naps along the way and that ain’t a bad way to go on a lazy Saturday.
marshall,
‘Fox News Watch’ is usually hosted by Jon Scott or E.D. Hill. Eric Burns was the host for a long time before he was let go by FNC.
It usually airs between 6-7pm ET on Saturdays. It is paired with ‘The Beltway Boys’ during that hour.
It has regular panelist and sometimes one or two guests, that discuss the way the media covered the big news stories of the past week.
Alisyn, can’t wait to see your hosting of the show. Aly on Saturday to help us make it thru our 3day drought of Aly on F&F.
Thanks for the info Mike Malone. I did a search just before your post and saw that Jon Scott hosted it last week. I usually take a break from news that time of day, but I will definitely tune in to watch Alisyn. Maybe her panel will discuss *bleep* and why *bleep* left Fox.
Thanks Mike Malone:
I purchased the same CD. That was some great stuff.
Too bad Roy died so soon after Vol 1 was released. The group just didn’t seem to click as nicely on Vol 3.
Hmmmmm…. Hmmmmmmm….. Hmmmmmmm….. Whuba Whuba!
Guess Ali was too busy to blog much this a.m.
True that
wow Alisyn, that first photo where you noted that it was your mother, definitely looks more like your sister than your mother. Great genes, you should age gracefully, not like the rest of us.
Your photos remind me of photos in my life, similar looking hottie girlfriends like you, big hair-do’s (guys too), Members Jacket………..wow!
But you should concern yourself because you’ve definiitely become the Swan that was never an ugly duckling. So you were lucky on both sides of that equation.
Abs? I noticed that you’ve started working out and with the tiny frame you have, it should be no problem getting them to look that way again within a short period of time. You’re still a hottie so keep smiling, because it makes us smile with you.
Wow! “Alisyn is so pretty” That’s an understatement, huh?
The Traveling Wilbury’s put out some fine material..If Roy hadn’t passed, perhaps they’d still be putting them out.
A real must see for Roy Orbison fans: Roy taped a concert back in the 80’s in Black and White called, “Roy Orbison and his Friends”. You can catch it every so often on PBS..Some of his friends in the band:
Bruce Sprinsteen, Elvis Costello, Jackson Brown, Tom Waits and the guy who played lead guitar for Elvis Presley (I can’t think of his name, but he’s a phenomenal guitarist) — Back-up Singers: Jennifer Warnes, K.D. Lang and Bonnie Rait. Great stuff.
Tom Waits — I’m in Love w/a Jersey Girl. The Best.
you’re still pretty after all these years
Correction: Meant to say, “was/is” so pretty.
I agree, The lack of coverage of the flooding in the Mid-West compared to the incessant coverage of the Katrina Disaster would be an interesting topic to discuss on this weeks “FOX News Watch”– I think it was Luis who first brought out some of the differences on the blog last week.
Good luck hosting the show Alisyn.
alisyn are u out there
OMG Alisyn in a swimsuit and looking good!
I watched the debate about the 17 year old beheaded at Six Flags. What a crock for Liz to defend him. Whats wrong with him being held responsible for his own death. Should the state of Florida be sued each time someone drowns? Should any state be liable for everyone that dies on an interstate? NO!!! Get real!!
Hmmmmm…. Hmmmmmmm….. Hmmmmmmm….. Whuba Whuba Whuba!
hey alisyn !
i was just curious, do you wear g strings or panties on air?
or even better, do you wear nothing at all underneath your skirt?
Deron, why don’t you show some class! You’re an idiot!
Thanks Carlos
deron take your self over to another blog alisyn is way out of your league
thanks Pat for backing me up on that, I’m sure Alisyn is a classy woman and will not respond to such a childish act!
The women of FoxNews are all very attractive ladies but I would never think of disrespecting them in a such a way.
For all guys, if you have a good mother & sisters, treat ladies that way you’d like them treated.
Hopefully with respect and honor.
you are one HOT MILF!!
carlos
its too bad people like deron have to come into a place and take away the calmness that we all feel here
alisyn is just a sweet smart sexy woman and to have someone disrespect her is insulting to us hopefully he will get blocked or just go away
and we women thank men like you for being the gentlemen that you are
go away deron you are not wanted here
i am sure mike, marshall and chas will have something to say about those vulguar posts
carlos
i dont understand why anyone would want to come into a blog and say such ridiculous things
alisyn is a beautiful, sexy, smart woman who everyone on this blog loves and admires she is a breath of sunshine to all of us
and we as women are grateful there are gentleman like you in here protecting her
Thanks for having my back Pat and Everyone!
I am noticing more and more with this character named BHO, he is becoming more of just another liberal left wing politician from the old boy network.
I wish this election is over with and done, with John McCain just named the winner.
Anyone here remember the original American Gladiators? Yet another of the fantastic shows of the decade. I really dont like the remake they have on right now. I dont know, its a little too extreme for me.
Plus they also tried to remake Knight Rider, with a pilot movie several months ago? It was really bad, nothing like the original one. It seems like dramatic programs these days are going to waste. That is precisely why i only tune into FNC.
How about those Encyclopedia Britannica commercials? From what i recall, it was like a Ferris Bueller format, with the college student talking to the camera. I heard it was the most successful of the encyclopedia’s 100 year history.
Someone needs to moderate this “Deron” character, before more of his nasty and disgusting posts come thru. I wonder if this guy has totally lost his mind. Degrading a talented journalist like Alisyn is really childish and immature. That is really disrepectful and she doesnt derserve to listen to stupidity like that. I sure hope this matter is taken care of immediately.
Oh Dehron…..you are in so much trouble now!!!!
About that 6 Flags incident, we dont even know why he did a dumb thing from scaling all those fences. There are some reports that are saying he wanted to enter the park without paying, and there are others who said he was seen grabbing some of the riders feet. Whatever the reason, its truly a tragedy. I hope another incident like this can be prevented.
I wonder who is going to fill in for Geraldo this weekend when he is on vacation? Anyone want to take a guess.
As for the person who mentioned about Joan Jett, i think she was in an episode of Walker Texas Ranger, where Walker and Alex get married. Does anyone remember that episode?
I remember that song Lady In Red. I know the guy who sang it, but it has a soothing melody. I recently heard it on an easy listening radio station online.
Jouney’s Open Arms was really the sad song of the decade. You know, the one they would play constantly during high school dances and proms.
Miami Vice was also good, but unfortunately my eyes would always get tired from watching that show, probably because of that pastel vision trick they did with every episode.
Highway to Heaven was yet another one of my favorites. Very heartwarming and touching stories that would make me cry. Does anyone know if they are still showing it on a channel somewhere out there?
Isnt Fox News Watch on again at 6am on Sunday mornings? I remember waking up early one time and seeing it.
Ali, I watch the show every morning. I think you guys are great. I love that you all are sharing pictures back from the 80’s. Keep up the great work!!!
Ali, you guys are all great. I watch your show every morning while getting ready for work. You all, Steve, Gretchen, and Brian keep a smile on my face and that is what it takes to keep people watching. By the way, love the 80’s week!!! Have a Happy 4th!!!
Brad & Pat,
I’m sure that Alisyn is classy enough not to dignify Deron with a response.
As if it would do him any good………..what’s he going to do with that information anyway?? dress his blow up doll in the same fashion? I’m fairly certain that this guy has to pay around $200 for any dates and even those hookers probably get sick just thinking of him.
Its obvious he’s not used to being around beautiful women.
deron’s posts aren’t much different than a bunch of others that are posted here daily..Sure, his comments are a bit more colorful than others, and he gets right to the point, but the basic content is the same..And you all know it!!
So, let’s not go gettin’ all high and mighty about it, okay? Let the masters that be slowly and quietly delete his posts if they so choose.
Alisyn’s a big girl, s*@t , she handled all kinds on AMW..This guy’s a lightweight in comparison.
Thanks August. Let’s see: Deron vs. Serial Rapsists, Mass Murderers and Child Molesters. You’re right. He’s small potatoes.
Jersey girls are just in a class of their own.
August,
this isn’t the forum for that and although most of us guys write because we’d like to communicate with these lovely ladies, it should not be acceptable to act in this manner. There are other websites that cater to that type of mentality, this is not one of them.
Beautiful, hot, hottie, and attractive fall way short of requesting personal information about a ladies attire. The women I know wouldn’t dignify him with a response and you notice that Alisyn has opted out of responding (although I’m sure she’s aware of this crude question) to him.
Again, the point is that there are sites that will provide him with as much lewd and nasty conversation as he wants, this is not it. It is a family oriented format and I’ve even seen 10 yr old girls write to Alisyn so one should use a bit of common sense if not, some discretion.
If Deron wants to make this right, he needs to send Alisyn an apology for overstepping a boundry he has not right to cross, its that simple.
I’m not trying to fight this battle for Alisyn, I’m sure you’re correct in that, she can fend for herself.
But being the son of a wonderful woman, a brother to 4 lovely sisters, and an uncle to 14 nieces, you can count on the fact that I’d have broken this guys face if he asked any body close me that question.
kudos to you carlos i am glad you are on our side
Pat,
we’ll stand together my friend!
Carlos,
I laughed out loud at this when I read it:
“what’s he going to do with that information anyway?? dress his blow up doll in the same fashion?”
Now that’s the kind of response that’s deserving..The kind of riposte that Alisyn herself would give..All the others saying how terrible deron’s posts are just don’t cut it for me…Sorry, but that’s the way I see it.
peace
August,
glad I could make you laugh, I’ll be appearring in a comedy club close to you soon………… I wish!
I respect your perspective, that’s what this country is all about. I just found that Deron question was out of line. If he’s on a date with Alisyn and he’s asks that question in a private manner, then no one cares but she’d probably slap his happy-&ss anyway, that’s just not the way to approach a classy lady, at any time, Dignified people act with dignity and I think Alisyn has exuded respectable traits so I don’t understand where anyone would think that this is appropriate.
But at least, you’ve exemplified how a disagreeble matter should be addressed. I respect you for your position and wouldn’t think to call you out for speaking your mind, as you’ve done it in a diplomaic and respectful manner.
But I’m still glad I was able to make you laugh.
August,
one more thing to consider is that, Alisyns family probably logs onto and reads her BLOG, how do you think they’d react to such a crude message?
All these ladies have families and they deserve respect and I don’t think Deron’s question remotely resembled anything close to being respectful.
my guess is the Deron wears mantihose!
Mantihose!
you are a true gentleman carlos and i know alisyn appreciates your defense of her if she was my daughter and i logged onto here and saw those comments i would be very offended there is a time and a place for everything and this is not the spot for that
alisyn does have a lot of admirers and most of them are very respectful and do try to tease her but ali is tough and when she is around and someone does get out of line she tells them so he has a loyal following men and women who respect her and love her perky freshness i know she brings sunshine into my house when she is hosting the show or just doing the news
when she first started this blog i remember her telling us all she wanted it to be a respectful place
Thanks Pat,
I appreciate the kind words. I’m sure there are a lot of messages that don’t make the cut simply because they’re just a little too colorful. I’ll even wager that Deron has had previous messages deleted so we never saw just crude he can be.
I think you said it best, “there is a time and place for everything”
I don’t think any of these ladies (on FoxNews) have ever given an indication that they were receptive to such outlandish remarks.
FoxNews knows what they’re doing, they’re the ones that hired all these beautiful ladies (FoxNews?? no doubting what thats all about but it should’ve been FoxesNews) but they’re no Penthouse, they’re not even Playboy. These are classy ladies that dress conservatively and respectfully. They know how to dress and appear attractive without putting all their goodies out there for us rascals.
Julie Banderas is my ultimate favorite but I would never, even if she was my wife, speak to her in a demeaning manner.
There are plenty of women out there that don’t have any self respect and allow this type of vulgar exchange. I’ve always thought that two of womens sexiest features are:
1. their femininity
2. their self respect
I promise that women with self respect, get treated like queens because that’s what they require. I was raised to respect all people, but most importantly, especially, respect women. I do love them and I plan to let God know that after he created woman, he’d done his best work and I plan to thank him for that. I love women but I also respect them.
Alisyn…you were beautiful in the 80’s and even more awesome now!!!! Just a comment about Obama and the race issue…I still feel Obama is no more black than Tiger Woods is oriental…folks need to get beyond this and accept the individual for what he is and represents!!!! I don’t agree with Obama’s views but he is the best the Democrat’s have to offer….
Hi Allysn:
You were just as hott back then as you are today. Why couldnt you have gone to my high school.
Take care

Alisyn-Great pictures. You may not be the size that you were in the bikini picture but for having 3 kids you look great. I’ve not had any kids and believe me I don’t look like you ;-(
So far you, Gretchen and Brian have only gotten better as your’ve aged. Hmm, is that fair?-LOL Tomorrow we get to see Steve but I somehow think that I’ve already seen him in the 80’s. I think he was working in Kansas City in the 80’s which is my metro area.
Carlos-
Thanks for putting this whole situation into perspective, you are true fan of Alisyn and every successful person who works at FNC. I appriciate how you and many others are looking out and defending her during these times of need.
Her fanbase is everything, and without it, she wouldnt be the successful journalist we all know and love
I just dont want this blog to turn into another Greta Wire. Have you ever seen it? Dont get me wrong, I am a big fan of her show, and she brings up a whole lot of great topics for discussion. But there are a ton of bashing from various people who post there. I have noticed it has gotten out of hand recently, and it seems like neither her or her interns are doing anything to prevent it. They should just moderate every new poster, and if somebody makes degrading and sickening comments, they should just be blocked, no questions asked.
What happened to that poor girl in VT is really sad. They just found her decomposing body earlier this evening. Its really disgusting that a family member could do such a horrific thing. If you cant trust your family these days, then who can you trust? What is this world coming to?
As for that lady in the hospital that was left to die without help, i dont know really what to say. I cant fathom how helpless and selfish people can be. She was in need of emergency help, and nobody bothered even to lend a helping hand. That is exactly why i try and avoid hospitals, i would rather go to a alternative medicine clinic. Its a whole lot safer over there.
I think i know the reason why the music of the 80s were so memorable and successful. Its that unmistaken beat of the songs, with the synthesizer and other melodramatic beats. I noticed recently, a lot of current artists have tried and re make certain songs from the decade, but i dont think they can ever top the original ones.
Thanks for those pics, Alysin!
You kind of look like that actress in that 80s cop show Hunter, Stephanie Kramer, with the whole fluffy hair and everything
thank you
Ali, I love the photos! Unfortunately, I was driving to work everyday when you guys showed your photos. I could hear the laughter on my Sirius radio, but that was it
Any chance you can post pics of Steve, Gretchen and Brian??
Thanks!!
YAZZA! YAZZA! YAZZA! Grest pics, Alisyn!

Does anyone here remember that 80s Police song, “Every Breath you Take”. That was a classic, the way Sting sang those haunting melodies.
I don’t have to remember that Police song as it’s on all the time… unlike previous generations our kids listen to the same hits we did way back when.
How about next week F&F does a 00s theme so we can see you in a kini now, Ms. Alisyn?
I dont really like any of the current music on the radio and on tv nowadays. I dont get the meaning of those lyrics at all. Its like the music if this current generation has taken a sharp turn for the worst. Especially this news kind of music the kids these days called “emo”. It supposedly makes them get so depressed and sad they self injure themselves.
Does anyone know where Greg Kelly is – haven’t seen him in awhile….
Bell-
Greg Kelly is currently the host of the 4pm news slot with Julie Banderas on the weekend. But he wasnt there recently, probably because he was on vacation.
Three things about pictures from our past:
1. We look different.
2. We’ve changed.
3. Some of us hold up a little better than others.
===================================
Alisyn, it was a blast-
Looking at pics from the past.
