ABC News Restructures GMA3 Amid Layoffs, Host Exits

ABC News' GMA3 is undergoing a major overhaul after the departures of co-anchors Eva Pilgrim, who is joining CBS' Inside Edition, and DeMarco Morgan, who is leaving ABC News. These changes occur alongside broader layoffs, restructuring, and previous scandals involving former hosts, which have impacted viewership and fueled speculation about the show's possible cancellation—a scenario executives have denied. ABC plans to refresh GMA3 by aligning it more closely with the flagship Good Morning America, featuring a rotating panel of familiar GMA personalities such as Lara Spencer, Gio Benitez, and Sam Champion. The revamp includes a new studio and format changes to revitalize the program. Simone Swink, executive producer of both GMA and GMA3, is leading integration efforts to bolster the show's stability and appeal. The permanent hosting lineup remains undecided as the network continues to experiment with different anchors and formats.
