As we told you last week, Mike Jerrick will be returning to Fox 29.

The station announced this morning that Jerrick will co-host "Good Day Philadelphia," (which he did from 1999-2002) with Sheinelle Jones from 7 to 9 a.m., while John Anderson will continue with Jones from 5 to 7 a.m. Jerrick, who most recently worked on "The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet," which Fox broadcast nationwide and recently canceled, will start this week, the station has said.

Also, on Monday, September 7, the show will be become five hours long, getting extended through 10 a.m. Currently, Fox 29 airs reruns of "Mike and Juliet" from 9 to 10. Jerrick and Juliet Huddy co-hosted the national show from January 2007 until last month.

"I have always found it more enjoyable to be at a local show, rather than a national show," Jerrick told us Monday morning. "There's more instant feedback and it's easier to connect with the audience." Jerrick will soon be looking for a place here. He hopes his girlfriend, an accountant he's been dating since October, will move from New York with him.

    This new pairing of co-hosts should be interesting. John Anderson and Sheinelle Jones work very well together. I'm not so sure the chemistry will be there with Jones & Jerrick, who has a tendency to be a little "suggestive" in his remarks, than the wholesome pair of Jones/Anderson. Well, I guess there's always GMA!

    This Dude Mike J is Funny. Too bad that blondie from his national show isnt coming down with him. They could use some talent on Good Day after Dorothy K peaced.

    I wish they'd find somewhere else for Mike and leave the team the way it was, I like the "chemistry" of the team without him. I didn't like the Mike & Juliet show. I found their (Mike & Juliet) personalities grating, guess I wasn't the only one since it was cancelled.

    I find Jerrick very annoying in the morning along with Jenn F. The two of them seemed compelled to force being over the top. Their delivery grates my nerves and when there not reading their lines the facial experssions are very disturbing. Good Day has certainly changed for the worse since those two came back. Looks like it's off to the CW17 for me.

    I like Jerrick. he is very funny and interesting. he brings life to the show. He is also very down-to-earth. Shaneille is a little high maintenece and Jerrick brings her down and gives her a funny spirit. I hope he stays.

    Oh, come on folks. Mike is great. He is what he is.....unpretentious, self-effacing and funny. Yes, the state of the union is in a shambles but do we have to have a doom and gloom attitude all the time. (We have Bill O'Reilly for that)Make no mistake, ALL of the morning "news" shows are about entertainment and Mike delivers.

    I do not like Mike Jarrett for the most part go now to the today show. Have lost all my fav. on good day,John out on the street while Mike sits in warm studio . Sue out on the street. Dawn gone replaced by Karrie Lee??????? No more Jami. The worst is breaking up Shanell& John for Mike Jarrett. He is awful. That's why his other show was cancelled
