Rachel Maddow gets her own show on MSNBC

The crew over here at the Viva Chuck Todd offices can't but help feel proud that someone we've been a big fan of for a while finally got her shot.

It was announced today that starting September 8th, Rachel Maddow will debut her own show at 9:00pm est/6:00pm pst replacing Verdict with Dan Abrams.

MSNBC network president, Phil Griffin said it best, "This just completes our prime-time lineup. Our lineup makes sense now." Griffin went on to dispel the assumptions by some that Rachel's show would have a significant left-leaning bias, "We’re hiring Rachel because she’s a smart person. Rachel goes far beyond politics. She’s an expert on military affairs. She was a Rhodes scholar."

We challenge Roger Ailes to get behind a microphone and laud the academic credentials of his prime-time lineup.

NEW from Cerebral Itch and Viva Chuck Todd:Rachel Maddow e-cards

It's been a little quiet on The Chuck front, so we thought it was a perfect time to roll out one of our new spin-off products that we're pretty proud of: Viva Rachel Maddow e-cards.

Just like The Chuck's e-cards, they're free, sassy and look great on the iPhone. If you love Rachel as much as we do, start sending out the cards declaring your appreciation for the Wonder Woman to The Chuck's Superman (yeah, we know that was a tad over the top).

Viva Rachel Maddow has launched

Well, you knew this day would come.

Viva Rachel Maddow has officially launched. Stay tuned for the same great taste you get from our brother publication, Viva Chuck Todd. For the time being, we've got free Rachel Maddow e-cards.

Knock yourself out.
