In January 2015, Nine relaunched Mornings with a new set and logo.Wendy Kingston and Georgie Gardner to fill in for Sonia Kruger whilst she was on maternity leave. Kingston presented on Monday and Gardner presented from Tuesday to Friday. They presented until Kruger returned on Monday 27 April.

In January 2016, Nine announced that Mornings would be rebranded as Today Extra to become an extension of the network’s breakfast show Today. The show was moved to the Today studio, while keeping its focus on light entertainment and news updates.
The first episode of Mornings attracted 104,000, trailing The Morning Show which attracted 166,000 viewers., however in October 2012, Mornings beat The Morning Show for the first time since its launch earlier in February.
