CNBC is alright. I don't like daytime TV or ESPN so I usually watch it at school. In terms of actual value add, you might pick up a few things watching, but everyone on the network is very biased.
I wouldn't recommend any show in particular, but I'd say watch it during the day, especially when the markets are on, since it will be more of a value add then watching ESPN or something like that.
Also, try and check out Bloomberg TV or Bloomberg Radio if you get a chance.
looking for that pick-me-up to power through an all-nighter?
only watch CNBC for entertainment value..unless you take their advice and do the exact opposite..they only talk up the books of their sponsors/advertisers..
"But if I listened to CNBC I would have a million dollars, provided I started with 100 million dollars" - Jon Stewart
It's very easy to knock CNBC because it's the "cool" thing to do, but IMO there is a lot of good content on the network. Yes, you have to sift through a lot of crap as well, but there are defintley a lot of smart people who many would benefit from listening to (i.e. Bill Gross from PIMCO is on quite often).
Basically, anything on before the bell or immediately after is good. In the middle or later is mostly terrible. I have also kind of enjoyed Faber's new show, Strategy Session.
CNBC is good to leave on in the background, they're usually the first to break M&A rumors.
(Or confirm false rumors, as they did today with General Mills + Kraft Heinz).
If I can wake up early enough I like hearing from andrew ross sorkin and Joe Kernen on squawk box, 6am-9am weekdays. They usually have some leading investors guest host in the mornings too.
Larry Kudlow Replacement on CNBC-What do you wanna see? (Originally Posted: 04/10/2014)
So does anyone know for sure what will replace The Kudlow Report on CNBC? Personally, I hope a show about private equity, hedge funds, and mergers/acquisitions comes on. As it is, CNBC goes WAY overboard with equities. A diversified portfolio should include which PE funds, which HFs to get into.
They have hedge fund managers come on to talk about their equity holdings and strategies already. The common mainstream user who watches CNBC isn't a qualified investor for HF and pe

I'd beg to differ. Mad retirees with a few hundred grand somewhere waiting to get involved in HF, PE, especially as laws against HF advertising become more lax.

watch bloomberg
starting bell is great
and im not sure what you mean ibd vs s&t. eg if you really want deal-related tv, use google news search
I enjoy some Kudlow from time-to-time
LMFAO
I think he's still on coke.
Bloomberg TV is the best. All the other TV shows are ok for entertainment value, but are worthless for anything else.

CNBC current running show American Greed running and NBC Law and Order: SVU are two my favorite shows ever from the channel
watch the commercials, they rock

It will probably be replaced by more crap 'American Greed' shows.
I hope not. We really need a prime time news show that isn't sensationalist tabloid trash. Thats why I like CNBC in the first place.
