In fact, viewers noticed when he was absent back in 2020 when he (as well as Al Roker, who has been open about some of his health struggles) tested positive for COVID and had to miss some work.Īs for what's in store next for Melvin and on MSNBC, Deadline reports that leaving his show will allow him to focus on NBC News' Today, and give him the opportunity to expand his role at that show. So, regular viewers of that show will already be familiar with him.

Melvin was visibly even more emotional by the end of Andrea Mitchell's speech on behalf of herself and his team, and who can blame him?

Know that in your ten years as a host on MSNBC, you did some good. Each of us – this is your team now – is grateful for our time together. So we just want to say, you are loved by your team and they wanted me to say, because they're too shy to say it themselves, so this is from them: thank you, Craig, for your guidance, your wit, your drive every day to do right by the viewer. You have never forgotten, also, your South Carolina roots, as we know so well from all your coverage of so many stories. And before that, our long friendship when you were at NBC-WRC here in Washington. But I just want to tell you how much you mean to me, how much I've loved following in your footsteps every day. We'll be seeing you every morning on Today, anchoring Today, and on other NBC programs.

Not so fast, Craig, because you have been my neighbor for all these years and I know you're not going far.
