This week it seemed a lot better than last week. They put over both teams, found their strong points, and even admitted to scouting out Festus to see if he has any weaknesses. THEN Morrison mentioned bringing a bell to the ring and ringing it halfway through the match.
Overall, not great, but a huge improvement from last week. The only bad things I heard them say about the talent was that Jessie was "a little slow" (in his head) and that Festus was sloppy (tazz corrected him and said he was "nasty") as a performer. I think his style is supposed to be that way though.
What did you all think?

They're terrible, not in anything they say, but the fact that their timing is so off.

Morrison is the only one who should be speaking. Not Miz, not Tazz, not Joey, only the Shaman.

I mean its obvious to tell that they just seemed uncomfortable there, but then again they still need to build their own mic skills. Mick Foley always said that he would never talk down to his opponent. He would never call his opponent a "piece of garbage" because what happens if he wins? Nobody cares that Mick would beat a piece of garbage. But also, what if that piece of garbage beat Mick Foley? It makes him look bad.

If Morrison ever doesn't sound tentative when he's speaking, he'll be good.

Thank god I'm not watching ECW. You know one thing that's worse than listening to John Morrison? Listening to the Miz.

When Tazz or Joey asked about how they would deal with facing experienced teams when they've only been teaming for a week. Morrison said something about being 15 and inexperienced and making out with some girl in his moms minivan, but her still saying he's the best shes ever had, I marked.
Also, him saying they dont serve biscuits and gravy in the Palace of Wisdom....awesome!

Morrison commenting that once the bell rings, "I'm going to tag you in, Miz." was amusing.
Then he threw out, "We don't serve Biscuits and Gravy in the Palace of Wisdom." and I rolled.
I still like Miz more than Morrison, but those were amusing.

It was fine, but neither belong anywhere near a microphone anyway.

What kind of Palace of Wisdom doesn't serve biscuits and gravy? They're delicious.

Both are better that "HAHA your not kidding (insert name of announcer here)" Tazz. I've grown to like Morrison. In fact Morrison/Miz are my favorite tag team not named Billy Boy/Fabi Apache today.

I for one thought last week's Morrison/Miz commentary was awesome.
Plus I think JBL was off the mark. How many times have WWE commentators barely even aknowledged what's going on in the ring? It happens all the time, especially with Sunday Night Heat/Jakked type shows. JR is also guilty of this.

I thought they were both good, and clearly showed a willingness to improve which should be commended.
Morrison last week just sounded like he was talking as John Hennigan. He didn't throw in any lines that furthered his gimmick, and didn't put over himself, Miz or Punk. This week though I genuinely laughed 2 or 3 times at his commentary, for good reasons. The inexperienced quote especially was hilarious and fitted right in with his gimmick.
Miz was good too, trying to put over the competitors while still using Cherry to make himself look like a chick magnet.
If they keep improving at this rate there will be no problems with them.
