Happy Monday, Janes! It’s time for a Sunday Show Scorecard! Things are a little sporadic around here but we want to keep our favorite Sunday shows on their toes so we’re checking in on them. This was a bad week for Janes on the Sunday Show Scorecard. Of the five shows we typically score only two had Janes on their panels. Let’s get to it.
First Place:
Chris Matthews Show
 Maybe we should call Chris Mathews Old Faithful? Chris came through again this week with two of his four guests being women. He was joined by the Washington Post’s Bob Woodward, Time’s Richard Stengel, BBC’s Katty Kay and NBC’s Andrea Mitchell. Two Janes and a first place finish for CMS!
Second Place:
Fox News Sunday
Fox News Sunday hosted six guests this week with two of them being women. NPR and Fox News’ Mara Liasson and the Wall Street Journal’s Kimberley Strassel joined NPR and Fox News’ Juan Williams, Weekly Standard and Fox News’ Bill Kristol, Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and Commander of the United States Central Command General David Petraeus on the panel. Way to go FNS! You knew we would be checking in on you, didn’t you? One Jane for you!
Tied for Last Place:
This Week
 George Stephanopoulos hosted two guests on This Week. He was joined by National Security Advisor General James Jones and Sen. John McCain for the mornings discussion. What happened, George? Did you think we weren’t watching? No Janes for This Week.
Meet the Press
Meet the Press let us down this week. MTP hosted two international guests this week, President Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan and President Asif Ali Zardari of Pakistan. Sorry, MTP, you know the rules. No ladies means no Janes.
Face the Nation
We thought we could count on you, Bob! Our Sunday boyfriend, Bob Scheiffer let us down this week, too. Face the Nation hosted former Vice President Dick Cheney on Sunday morning for a discussion on the on going investigation of interrogation tactics during the Bush administration. No Janes for you, Bob.
