GOOD Morning America host Michael Strahan has returned to the popular morning show in New York City after a quick break.
The 51-year-old was absent yesterday as he received a major award in Los Angeles.
On Monday, all three of the main hosts were absent from the anchor desk, however, they all were back at it on Tuesday.
Michael was also at hand despite being in Los Angeles just hours before, receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Typically, Michael is absent from GMA on Mondays, due to hosting a NFL game the night before.
The former football player, however, was his usual animated self on Tuesday's broadcast.

Michael started his speech with a special shout-out to his mom, mentioning her birthday, which was last week.
The famous host then let his guard down during his acceptance speech, shouting out to the gathered crowd: "It's Michael Strahan Day, baby!"
He nearly forgot to mention his GMA crew, coming back to the podium after his speech to acknowledge them.
"How could I forget my queen, Robin Roberts? And George Stephanopoulos," he added. "I love you, Robin. You came all the way out here. Now, I’ve gotta buy you a nicer Christmas gift."
Walk of Fame producer Ana Martinez released a statement before the event saying: "We are very excited to inaugurate the first Sports Entertainment star for Michael Strahan.
"Sports fans will be thrilled to be able to see their favorite sports figures who are involved in the entertainment business receive their stars.
"Michael’s extensive background in sports and sportscasting makes him the perfect choice to add to the famed sidewalk.”
Michael's star is the 2,744th on the Walk of Fame.
He received the first star in the Sports Entertainment category.
COMEDY BOLD
Aside from hosting GMA, Michael still is involved in the world of football, as he is a commentator for FOX NFL Sundays.
This past weekend, Saturday Night Live had a skit where they spoofed Michael and a bunch of the hosts.
SNL fans said they were not impressed by the impressions of Michael and Terry Bradshaw.
They were joined by comedians impersonating Curt Menafee, Jimmy Johnson, and Howie Long.
The late-night show opened with a six-minute comedy skit on the Fox NFL crew that left a bad taste.
Michael was played by Devon Walker in the clip while Terry was impersonated by Molly Kearney.
Devon poked fun at Michael's lisp as he spoke during the sketch.
