Dylan Dreyer Shocked The Today Show Audience And Left Her Co-Hosts Craig And Savannah In Utter Disbelief After She Made A Bombshell Announcement That No One Saw Coming, Prompting A Chorus Of ‘WAIT… WHAT?!’ In the studio.
The first hour of *Today* looked a little different on Tuesday as viewers tuned in to find that beloved weatherman Al Roker was missing from the show.

In his absence, his co-host Dylan Dreyer stepped up to fill the role, sharing the screen with Craig Melvin and Savannah Guthrie.

Dylan, who usually joins the show later in the day as part of *The 3rd Hour*, took on the role of filling in for Al while the team navigated the day’s events.

Al Roker, a fixture on the *Today* show, was notably absent from the morning broadcast, and fans were left wondering about his whereabouts.

Dylan, 43, typically co-hosts *The 3rd Hour* alongside Al, Craig, and Sheinelle Jones, but on this occasion, she made her way into the first hour’s segment.

The moment marked a subtle but notable shift in the show’s usual programming.

Dylan added her own excitement to the announcement, urging fans to join in on the fun. “We want you guys to join in on our fun,” she said, encouraging viewers to attend the live audience. The team was clearly enthusiastic about the upcoming festivities in New Orleans, and it seems like it’s going to be an event to remember.

In addition to the Mardi Gras festivities, Craig Melvin revealed another exciting event in the making: *Today*’s first-ever *Today Food* event called *Taste of New Orleans*. During this event, some of New Orleans’ best chefs will showcase their favorite dishes, providing an authentic taste of the city’s renowned culinary scene. While tickets for the live audience were already sold out, fans still had the opportunity to purchase tickets for the *Today Food* event itself.

As *Today* continues to bring viewers exciting live events, special broadcasts, and behind-the-scenes moments, it’s evident that the show’s dynamic remains as lively and engaging as ever. Whether it’s through live programming from New Orleans or the steady support of co-hosts like Dylan, Savannah, and Craig, *Today* continues to captivate audiences every morning. Fans will no doubt be looking forward to the upcoming Mardi Gras special and the new chapter unfolding with Craig’s co-hosting duties.
