Rachel Maddow Tapes MSNBC pilot

h/t to Think Progress (via mediabistro):

TVNewser tipsters tell us MSNBC taped a pilot with radio talk show host Rachel Maddow and MSNBC prime time VP Bill Wolff. Maddow is a frequent guest on MSNBC, she appeared regularly on Tucker Carlson's former 11pm ET show, The Situation. Wolff, who was the EP of that show, has been running MSNBC's prime time since September 2005. No word on if the pilot is being considered ready for take-off.

How cool would this be?

Rachel getting her own show would be way cool

This would be awesome. She is way smart and can call bull-shite on the MSM spin. I love her show on Air America radio.  I hope this pans out.

We should start a petition drive to MSNBC. Rachel's show would probably be as entertaining as Keith Olbermann's.

Maddow is smart, funny, and articulate, and I really miss hearing her on Air America. The NY affiliate changed last year to a station I can no longer pick up, which is cruel, as I used to listen to her every day. It would be great if she got an MSNBC show! She's on Countdown a lot, too, so Keith Olbermann must be a fan.

She's great on Olbermann's

She's great on Olbermann's show, and you can tell they have a great respect for each other. Last night she was on Hardball, commenting on the Republican debate yesterday. Chris Matthews was his usual, obnoxious self but Maddow held her ground.

I saw her on Hardball last night, and I was very impressed by her standing her ground! I had never heard of her before, but I would be very interested in her show

I love her on Keith's show. I also used to love it when she'd show up on CNN. She was usually a guest on Paula Z's old show. Most of the segments consisted of close-ups of the panelists, but every now and then they'd do a long-shot. I always thought Rachel was wearing a chain wallet in her baggy jeans. Sadly, I finally realized it was her sound pack...

Rachel's stepping in for Keith Olbermann on MSNBC tonight.

If you get a chance, tune in.

I'm hoping that this is a test run for her getting her own show.
