FIRST Take had some broadcasting hiccups as the show continues to run without Stephen A. Smith. During Thursday's episode of the ESPN show , some of the show's talent didn't realize they were live.
Molly Qerim made her return to First Take after a long hiatus, and the show clearly needed some time to get back into the swing of things. As the show opened up on Thursday, Molly did her usual introductions, but later got distracted by something off screen. "Courtney Cronin in the building, looking beautiful as ever," Qerim said.
"Great to have you, I haven't seen you in about a year." Molly and Cronin caught up for a bit before the interruption. "I'm glad you and I got a little time off, but football season is full steam ahead," Cronin said.
Qerim started to speak again before she shouted out about the interruption. "Bart Scott! I don't think you're ready Bart," she shouted out. "Your mic is not open we'll get you in just a little bit though.
" Scott was then awkwardly flashed on the screen before Qerim continued opening up the show. "We're a little rusty coming back," she admitted after the slip-up. First Take fans expressed their disdain with the error as viewers continue to beg for Stephen A.
to return to First Take. "I remember when this show used to be good like a decade ago," one fan said. "We all know he can't wait," another fan said.
"I guess Bart had a brain fart," a third fan said. First Take went from strength to strength under the guidance of Stephen A. Smith and Molly.
