Out of all the former co hosts to bring back.. they bring back Rosie O?

Honestly, Star Jones is the one who should've been brought back. If it's true Whoopi wants to leave so bad I would've given Rosie the moderator role she wants so badly and have Star replace Whoopi. I like Whoopi and I love this panel, but if she truly wants to leave I think that would be a smart choice to replace her. I'd also bring on a 5th person, someone who is younger.

I agree. And Rosie and Star get along these days...the reason Whoopi isn't gone is her $10 million contract, which is pay or play, so even if ABC fires her, they have to pay her. So they're playing her and paying her, and she'll have to suck it up until it runs out.

It's a shame that Whoopi doesn't act more. I suspect she's not getting offered much, but she's too talented to not be making movies, IMO.

And no - I'm not talking about her 3 minute role in this summer's Mutant Ninja Turtle movie.

The Talk MATCHES The View IN BOTH WOMEN 25-54 AND WOMEN 18-49

Closest Margin in Viewers This Season

CBS's The Talk matched The View in both women 25-54 and women 18-49, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings for the week Oct. 12.

The Talk averaged 1.0/06 in women 25-54 and 0.7/05 in women 18-49 matching The View in both key women demographics. Among viewers, The Talk averaged 2.63 million, finishing in its closest competitive position to The View this season (vs. 2.80m).

This is bad news for the View. I have never seen the talk so close in viewers. It's skews very old this season. The problem with this season is its lacking any real excitement. The show is boring and the Talk is more fun and there's a lot more chemistry. I miss the old View chemistry. Bring back Sherri and dump Rosie P and get a new young person in there.

I like the view for the first time in years

They actually talk and dont scream

The chemistry is flat though. I do think Nicolle has improved but maybe a 5 th new co host is what the show needs

Well this should make it interesting sounds like Rosie Perez is not gelling & may try out new co-hosts

well that's boring. People don't watch the View for tranquility and getting along.

Yeah its rather boring and I am finding The Talk better these days.

Something we agree on lol. The Talk is much better than the View. The co hosts have a much better chemistry and the show is a fun guilty pleasure. The view is so drab and dull. This panel has no chemistry is the problem.

It sounds like they will make this something like Morning Joe, or perhaps it is just a financial trick so they can tell advertisers news programs go after viewers up to the age of 54 and therefore the ad rates are fair despite huge declines.

I like this panel, but they went TOO serious. They needed a Real Housewife, I strongly believe that. Somebody to bring the laughs. A Bethenny or Lisa Rinna could've done wonders for this show.

Lisa Rinna would be a good choice as she tried out for Regis years ago.
