Even if Scarlett Johansson isn't here, there are still two hosts today. Carson Daly would be thrilled to replace Hoda.

Today has gone through its fair share of changes over its many decades on NBC, and the wait is still on in the 2025 TV schedule for who the next permanent member of the team will be after Hoda Kotb's departure back in January.


 The daytime television program has cycled guests in and out over the past several months to join Jenna Bush Hager in the fourth hour of the program, with Scarlett Johansson as a standout. 


While the all-time highest-grossing actor is unlikely to accept a full-time daytime TV gig any time soon, Carson Daly has a couple of guest hosts who he thinks would be great fits for a permanent chair.


While Scarlett Johansson's explanation for why she took the temporary Today co-hosting gig also explains why she's not ready for hours of live TV every weekday, longtime Today contributor Carson Daly shared his take on the current vacancy with Us Weekly:


Daly, who is currently a feature anchor on Today, dropped some notable names as possible stars to join Jenna Bush Hagar's hour of the broadcast, previously known as Today With Hoda & Jenna and currently titled Today With Jenna & Friends. 


Apparently, two of those "friends" that made a strong impression on The Voice host were TV personality/sportscaster/former Dancing with the Stars host Erin Andrews and NBA legend Dwyane Wade.
