I have been watching the new Modern Lady with Erin Gibson since Target Woamen with Sarh Haskins was taken off. I began watching with an open mind and now my mind is closed. My verdict is in: BRING BACK SARAH & TARGET WOMEN. Erin seems like a nice lady and she really tries to be satircal & funny, but unfrotunately, she IS NOT. Is there something odd goin on there at Current? Is your new formula to bait folks with good quality programing like Rotten Tomatoes & Target Women and then snatch it away? Because if it is, then we will all have to excercise our remote controlls & watch other channels.

Erin, has mighty big shoes to fill.
I will not be watching info mania anymore as I began watching info mania for the sheer brilliance in delivery and originality that Sarah brought to Target women.
Personally, I loved that Target women showed the media and the part they play in 'dumbing down women' they even went as far to show the brands that were orcastrating this manufactured fasard of what it means to be a 'woman'.
I find it insulting that they the have re-branded the show and replaced the presenter with what they presume is a more likable pioneer for heroism. This is no way in shape or form a refection on Erin, but did they have to choose someone who has clearly had work done and who finds security in conforming to American stereotypes.
It seems to be the content is focused on celebrity agenda which is cringe worthy at best and for those reasons this only furthers the stereotype that Sarah was trying to break.
It's a shame, will there ever be a positive female role model that tells it like it is. Not on current tv.

Your comment is perfect. Each of Sarah's segments can be rewritten into a full-on intelligent article about how advertisement has constituted to the stereotypes of woman. Erin's character is just another...bad stereotype of woman who tries too hard to be funny (badly and unnaturally), speaks with very annoying and fake voice, and has nothing intelligent or critical to say except whining unappealingly about the media. Absolutely no insights! We all hate celebrity culture, yes! But give us something smart and refreshing and insightful instead of just making fun of it. Do both like Sarah did!
I watched Erin's other works, and it seems like this is her style of comedy, which really...well...makes me cringe, not laugh. If they want to find a replacement, how about Sarah Silverman?

Sad Sarah is gone... but this was funny.... Give Erin a break she is new. I am glad the show has a new woman advocating for women again. I also think Brian from "that's so gay" is Hahalarious! Go Erin!

Seriously?
I don't mean to be offensive, but I am truly curious as to how Modern Ladies appeals to you. I couldn't enjoy it, so maybe I didn't really get the humor unless someone explained it to me.

Apart from The Morrigan on Heartless Bitches International, Sarah Haskins was the best thing on the net.

So is she replacing Sarah Haskins? NOOOOOOOOOO!!! We love you Sarah!
*cries*
Erin, we're in mourning here over Sarah's departure, so one word of advise:
don't become a copy of Sarah (which the first 'modern lady' segment kinda was), make your segments your own. That'll be better for all of us.I'm going to go cry some more.

Target Women and Sarah Haskins were the most consistantly hilarious things on Current TV! (As much of the writting for Infomania/Supernews etc., kinda fluctuates in it's ability to bring great chuckle... IMO)
Actually she hosted some of the funniest consumer parody skits I've ever seen on Target Women... period!
;) Oops, I punned a little.
