ABC’s GMA3: What You Need to Know is turning up the heat for the week of June 9 with a daytime lineup engineered for maximum reach—pulling in pop icons, franchise talent, and health-first segments aimed squarely at its multi-demo base.
The marquee gets a jolt of star wattage Friday with Lady Gaga sitting down with Michael Strahan for a one-on-one that headlines a stacked finale to the week. Gaga’s appearance comes as buzz builds around her next screen move and new music chatter heats up—a smart booking for GMA3 as it jockeys for midday eyeballs.
Tuesday brings George Takei back to daytime to promote his graphic novel It Rhymes With Takei, marking a rare linear interview for the cultural icon. That’s followed midweek by Mario Cantone, whose return to And Just Like That… on Max keeps him in the zeitgeist as season two reruns ramp up ahead of season three.
Elsewhere across the week, news and wellness maintain anchor status. Stephanie Ramos reports Monday on the Earlybirds Club, while Dr. Darien Sutton and Dr. Tara Narula deliver real-time GMA Health Alerts tied to summer headlines. Victor Oquendo closes out Friday with a safety push on rip currents—timed to summer break and rising beach travel.
The Tribeca Film Festival also gets a plug on Friday with Will Ganss offering an early look at the documentary premiere of Barbara Walters: Tell Me Everything, capitalizing on renewed interest in legacy journalism and longform storytelling.
And as always, Tory Johnson keeps the retail engine humming with Deals & Steals running all week.
GMA3: What You Need to Know airs weekdays at 1:00 p.m. EDT | 12:00 p.m. CDT on ABC.
