We won't lie, we really like Brian Williams. With the old troika of Rather, Jennings and Brokaw in varying states of gone, he's the only evening news anchor who really exudes that anchorness (no offense, Katie).

There's something about the way he commands that couch, his presence is so outsized, he almost looks Photoshopped. Williams is like the old football coach that we never had. Congrats on the Ed Murrows. You and your staff deserve all the glass plaques you can fit on a coffee table.
