OK, this is coming from a gossip column in a paper owned by a compulsive liar(no, not Todd Manning), so take the source for what it's worth, but........
Katie to get 3 days

We’ve seen television favorites yanked off shows despite contractual obligations. Katie Couric’s ABC daytimer debuts September. So when will TV hotshots determine her new effort’s hot or not? Two years? Three seasons? Six episodes? Care to hear precisely exactly how long their eyes take to decide? You won’t believe it. But believe it.
Three days.
Day 1, everybody tunes in. Day 2, it’s those watching a second time plus whoever missed the first program. By Day 3, the tinkering begins, but to suits in those offices if the ratings aren’t solid gold, it’s already all over.
Three days to tell if Katie’s A-OK. And please don’t insult me by saying I don’t know what I’m talking about. I know what I’m talking about because I know what they are talking about.
So after all the hype.... all the hysteria. All the moving of GH into another goddamned time slot after 49.5 years, all for the benefit of a new show that isn't even a network show..... she only gets 3 days to prove herself.
Hate Katie. Have no intention of ever watching her show no matter how long it lasts. But still this seems a little hard to believe.
So then I would ask the goons at ABC/Disney corporate office, WHY BOTHER??? Leave General Hospital where it belongs, since it sounds like you're probably going to cancel this shit sandwich talk show anyway......
