NBC insiders are going to need some serious convincing about Megyn Kelly’s new show.

If TV critics are confused by what one called her “Bride of Frankenstein” morning show, Page Six hears that veteran network producers are baffled by the decision to make her “Megyn Kelly Today” a “politics-free zone.”

In the run-up to Monday’s premiere in the 9 a.m. “Today” slot, Kelly — who built her reputation on hard-hitting Washington coverage, not to mention her public spat with then-presidential candidate Donald Trump — said she’s “not a political animal and I never have been.”

During the launch episode, she announced that the show would avoid politics entirely (although it’ll include some news coverage).

“They spent all that money on this great political anchor and journalist,” said an industry insider. “If you take those things away, what are you paying for?”

Meanwhile, insiders are keeping a suspicious eye on the show simply because Al Roker and Tamron Hall — whose “Today’s Take” was booted in favor of Kelly’s show after she was hired from Fox News back in January — were such popular members of the team.

“If it’s a flop, apart from all the other fallout, it’ll be seen as a waste of Al and Tamron,” we’re told.
