I recently sent a complaint to Cityline staff after watching one too many idiot comment made by Tracy (after cutting off the guest mid-sentence, of course). Apparently the folks at Cityline see me as part of a minority as opposed to the majority "who love her!". I would love to see actual members of this "majority" (none of whom exist around me in real life) speak of their love for Tracy on the Cityline forum as well as members of the "minority" who dislike her.

Tracey needs to button it up. We don't need her commentary when a guest is speaking. Why can't she just listen first and then ask her (often dumb) questions? She uses all of the catch words and in the end comes across as inauthentic.Denise
I could not agree more. Tracy should zip it. I turn on the show.only to turn off again. I use to watch this show, when Marlyin was hosting, somtimes twice in one day, she always made me laugh.show is not the same without her.miss her pls listen to your audience.Need New Host.Steven and Chris take over plsAnonymous
Tracy is really crummy. Quite immature and she is always interrupting her guests and she pushes her opinions constantly...an uninformed know-it-all, a braggart, a snob with a bad attitude.calli
I've noticed that too; it could be a technical issue but it also might be their response to the overwhelming amount of comments that called for change. However, there are other forums and blogs where you can voice your opinion:

I came across an interview with Tracy Moore while searching for these forums and had to laugh at some of her comments:
"{snip}I think our audience is pretty savvy. I think they can sniff out inauthenticity a mile away. {snip}" yes, we are savvy and that's why most of us have stopped watching!
"Certainly CityLine doesn’t belong to me alone, it belongs to the viewers and all the guest hosts that come in as well, but this is what I’ve wanted to do for a long time. "
"It belongs to the viewers and all the guest hosts"? Then why haven't she addressed any of the massive amount of suggestions and complaints that were voiced on the Cityline forum (to stop interrupting the guests, to stop making the shallow, self-absorbed comments, to cut back on her unfunny attempts at self-deprecation where she cuts off the guest to bring attention to her inability to cook, craft, etc., to stop commenting on the model while ignoring the clothes they're wearing, just to name a few)?
The producers of Cityline, forum moderater Suzanne Ellis and Tracy Moore have demonstrated that Cityline belongs to them and the minority group of viewers who find the current show entertaining.
