I like the show a lot.

I think maybe I'm in the minority, but I love Sherri Shephard. I think she's hilarious. She might be a few watts short of a flourescent, but she entertains me.

I like all of the panel really, especially when they fight. I've always hoped a little bit that Barbara Walters would just have a meltdown and slap somebody....It would make my day. HAHA.

I try to watch the show as much as I can, when I don't have school.

I like Joy and Whoopi mostly, followed by Sherri. Sherri sometimes I really enjoy and sometimes I find her useless on the show. Depends on the day. I think sometimes when things get really heated on the show, Sherri's feisty side can be quite entertaining and she can shed light on a side of an issue that I can agree with.

Whoppi and Joy have made this show unwatchable. I mean damn, when i like Sherri more than others there is just something wrong.

Really the only one i can even tolerate at this point is Elisabeth. I know thats taboo here, but its true. I am not saying i agree with her or that she is perfect or anything else, but i do think that she is oddly the most sane and rational one... at least in terms of she doesnt typiccaly act like 12 yearold. Her view and my view are very different, and i think she has wrapped view on things but again, thats just because i have the other side of her.

Whoppi... i just cant even. I dont know where to begin. I use to love her. But after the rape-rape comments and mel and everything else. No.

Joy is that type of person i just cant stand. The person who goes around talking down everyone who doesn't agree with her and her view. She is an extremist, just on the left side. It doesnt make her any less extreme or judgmental than those she puts down.

Sherri is just there, i think because Walters doesnt want to let her go and admit she hired the wrong person. She adds nothing. She may as well not be there.

I also hate that Whoppi, Joy, and Sherri are all comics, mothers, and agree on so much. They are too much alike, IMHO. The point of the view is 5 different woman with different backgrounds and what not. I liked it when they all actually were from different fields.

Ugh. I used to love The View, but not so much anymore. When it was an actual daytime talk show and not trying to be like a 24-hour news net politics show, it was fun, entertaining, sometimes heated, but always interesting. Now, the only time Whoopi is vaguely engaged in the conversation is when she can talk about the latest political happenings or when one her so-called BFFs (ex: someone she co-starred with in a movie twenty years ago) is a guest or is in the news. Joy grates, Sherri is dumb as [!@#$%^&*] on a cracker, and Bitsy is an idiot. Barbara's on autopilot.

I saw that today and, seriously, even though it was a bit extreme for her to call Sharron Angle out, that ad(that SHE approved) was racist, disgusting, and divisive. I can't blame the raging liberal in Joy for getting pissed off about that and about her.

Joy is probably getting irritated with being on The View because, again, even though it looks on the surface like there are four liberals ganging up on the Neo-Con, a closer look will reveal that The View is basically a platform for the Republican Party, courtesy of Bill Geddie. And Frons likes it because the controversy brings in the numbers.

Pathetic. I used to love this show.

bc she says it like she means it and doesnt hold back. She is very honest and will call out a person regardless of how it looks or makes them feel. Star wasnt expecting to be called out on her manipulative tactics but NeNe saw right through her

that may be true but I dont think her going after Starr was about her being insecure and needing to build herself up. Maybe with other women like Kim and Latoya, but definitely not Star. Star was strategically manipulative (her own words) and NeNe called her out on it when she realized what she was doing to tear the other women apart to build her self up so she could win. This was all while hiding behind the front that she's a strong professional black woman that doesnt get involved in fighting, yet instigated alot of the drama. On Celeb Apprentice, Star was quite apparent with her tactics

      Another World Discussion Thread

      I'm back! We are back! Me and my husband are finally back at our favorite hobby! How could I postpone returning to this amazing show for so long??? What was I thinking??? Another World - February 2nd, 1989 The dead will revenge the living

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.

      ALL: Drag/Crossdressing Disguises in Soap Operas?

      It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

      "Secret Storm" memories.

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?

      All My Children Tribute Thread

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.

      "Secret Storm" memories.

      By te. · Posted

      Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience?

      That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you
