I missed the chat, but read the log. I would have to disagree with hpman77. While I think it's probably appropriate for Morgan to expound on some of Jim's short answers, it should only be in that sort of situation, AFTER Jim answers first. Morgan shouldn't be answering all of Jim's questions for him, even if he does know virtually all of the answers already. People want to hear it from the celebrity, so to speak. It would be like trying to chat with your favorite recording artist, and instead having virtually all your questions answered by his publicity agent. The agent might have the right info...but it ain't the same.
To Morgan's credit, I think that the majority of the time, he did it exactly right, expounding on Jim's answers.
But perhaps a suggestion for Jim would be: When you're being interviewed -- which is basically what this sort of thing is, an interview -- it might be more engaging if you could answer more questions with something other than "Yes," "Yep," "Never," and "Nope." Just a friendly suggestion.
