It is great to have you full-time with us, Roberts said after Strahans introduction.
It does feel like the first day of school around here, doesnt it?
The only thing Im missing is my Spider-man lunch box, Strahan joked.
The former NFL superstar had appeared previously onGMAas a contributing anchor while also co-hostingLive!with Kelly Ripa.
When she returned to her seat opposite Strahan, Ripa said she gained perspective from the break.
I always speak from my heart.
This started a much greater conversation about communication and consideration and most importantly respect in the workplace.
ABC apologized to Ripa for the way Strahans promotion was announced.
Strahan officially leftLive!on May 13.
I didnt know what to expect coming from sports to daytime television, Strahan said during his final show.
And you guys opened up your hearts to me, you opened up your homes to me.
It means the world that you give us an hour of your day.
