GEORGE Stephanopoulos has continued to plug his brand new job – and his fans are “loving it”.
The Good Morning America anchor, 61, shared a new clip from his show Power Trip, which follows reporters working on the midterm election.
On Sunday, the Hulu show was also promoted on GMA with viewers treated to an exclusive “sneak peek”.
Stephanopoulos returned to social media to further plug the show that same day, resharing a clip posted by ABC.
He wrote: “Episode 2 of #PowerTripABC is out this afternoon, only on @hulu.”
One fan replied: “Loving it!”
“I love this show,” another added.
And one viewer said: “George is always on it! Good job.”
Former White House communications director Stephanopoulos returned to social media last week to share details of his new show.
“I’m so excited about this show. We’re going to feature our young reporters, we call them embeds, who go out and cover campaigns,” Stephanopoulos said in the clip recorded in Washington D.C.
The journalist’s new project, titled Power Trip – Those Who Seek Power and Those Who Chase Them – focuses on reporters covering the upcoming midterm elections from the ground.
“It’s the first time ever where you’re really going to see [the reporters] doing their jobs in real-time, trying to get answers from the politicians, trying to figure out what’s on voters’ minds,” Stephanopoulos added.
The GMA star’s wife Ali Wentworth had previously celebrated his new career move.
“Suiting up the next generation of journalists!” she said on Instagram.
The show “tracks a group of young reporters as they hit the road to follow candidates running for office,” according to GMA’s September 15 tweet.
The trailer had debuted to a mixed response.
One Twitter user simply wrote the show was a “hard pass” from them, while another commented on the original post that “George is no journalist.”
Another social media critic tweeted, “Not sure how I feel about reporters as reality stars.”
But White House Correspondent MaryAlice Parks was immediately interested tweeting, “As a former embed, it’s been so great to get to work with this new squad out there covering the midterms in the field for@ABC.
“They are getting after it … and getting us on the air. Can’t wait for this show!”
Stephanopoulos described the show in his own words live on GMA: “Let me tell you about a new program from my production company.
“It’s gonna take you behind the scenes of political campaigns in a way we’ve never done before.”
He continued: “It’s called Power Trip, and it’s about our young campaign reporters, we call them embeds, as they hit the road to bring that news to all of you.”
Variety announced that Stephanopoulos will be serving as an analyst and adviser to a group of seven “embed” reporters during the eight episodes.
The reporters featured in the series will be covering the 2022 midterm elections for ABC News.
