John CBS is a business. ATWT was doing terrible when it went off the air. The show skewed old. The Talk wasn't a success at first. It only had like 1.8 million but it grew over time with finally finding the right panel which has clicked chemistry wise. They all look like they are having fun. I love Aisha Tyler on the show. The talk is doing almost 500000 more viewers that ATWT on a cheaper budget. The View needs to go to basics and got old fan favorites mixed in with younger viewers. Barbara Walters exec producer credit has been in name only this season. She hasn't consulted or had anything to do with the show this season. She retired and when she did she sold her ownership to abc. Bill Geddee were exec producers for 17 seasons. When new people come in the tru original vision gets lost. Again I think the view should end in 2017. 20 years is a good place to end. Have season 20 be the farewell season .

The show may have skewed old, but so were most of its fans, myself included. People who appreciated a show with several generations represented, which was a nice change of pace from a lot of the crap shown on television. Characters that had history which for the most part was shown through vets that had appeared for many years. They were the faces ou could count on to brighten your day, make you laugh, cry or just think. Had P&G and CBS not fallen asleep at the wheel and fired wrecking ball Passanante and ushered in real writers the show could have pulled out of the slump.Nobody bothered and Moonves rewarded trophy wife with a series. A series which has taken how many years to catch on? It begs the question, as a soap fan how would you feel if YOUR favorite show was cancelled to make way for yet another talk show...one of about 500 currently on?

I'd be fine with it. Y&R has been gutted from the inside out for a solid decade and DAYS is floundering badly. I would hate for the actors to lose their jobs, but I'm also realistic to the economic realities of putting on shows that don't make financial sense.

The problem with an old skewing show: the audience dies and in daytime, the audience doesn't get replaced.

I have an aversion to saying Moonves rewarded Julie Chen with The Talk or calling her a trophy wife, aside from the fact she's hot, she had a very nice life going with Big Brother (which she got prior to her relationship starting with Moonves) in the summertime and being a Beverly Hills housewife the rest of the time.

I know this show is hideous and unwatchable most of the time these days, but my 2014 obsession Colleen Ballinger will be be guest co-hosting on Thursday, so anyone who watches, let me know how she does cool.png I won't be able to watch live or record...but hope I will be able to find a link! ;'-)

I sympathize completely. I felt really bad for the P&G fans when their soaps went off the air. If GH went off the air I wouldn't replace it with anything any of the networks offered. I would just watch an hour less TV a day. I know I went into mourning when Lost went off and that was only on the air 5 years. Same when I ran out of episodes of Battlestar. To lose your soap must be horrible.

I really don't find the Talk all that wonderful, to be honest. Without The View would there have even been The Talk? I just haven't found a single compelling reason to watch The Talk, ever. And it's not out of anger that ATWT was cancelled. It's just as boring to me as The View is becoming. The Talk is definitely overrated, IMHO.

The View is a hot mess though. Hot hot mess. Nicolle Wallace is fine. Get rid of everyone else. I wouldn't mind Joy back. I've like Laverne Cox and Naya Rivera but neither is going to be accepting a job on The View if one were even offered. IMO. Rosie Perez is likeable enough but this isn't for her. They should have tried for Brooke Shields.

I really would rather not have any of those Housewives on The View. I'm so over them and them having celebrity status. If I had to, I'd go with Bethenny, Nene or someone who's actually working and making a name for themselves. Not just throwing drinks and being a bitch for the sake of camera time [and not sure why so many people stan for the Housewives and their awful behavior].

I just don't know where The View can go from here, honestly. They've had too much overturn of co-hosts and not enough stability recently. This would be the easiest [and best] time to end it.

They desperately need a fifth permanent co-host. Something is missing from the panel.

They're promoting Rosie Perez's return so that, to me, means they're making it clear she isn't fired ... yet ;) LOL. I don't trust them when they say "so and so isn't going anywhere".

Whoopi seems checked out half the time, and I don't blame her. But at the same time, I'm not seeing where she HATES the show and wants out desperately. Why does everyone jump on all of these rumors of them hating each other, wanting out, etc? I think Whoopi maybe loves her paycheck more than being on the show at this point, but she could leave anytime and be fine. So, why stick around?

I really don't have problems with Rosie O. She's not the same she used to be, but I think she's gotten a tad better. She still pisses me off when she fails to engage in a discussion that doesn't follow the agenda and her already made up mind. I know she's probably trying to not get into heated debates but she comes off childish at times.

As I said. The View is a hot, hot mess. But I really like the addition of Nicolle Wallace! And if they ever add Mario Cantone permanently ... I'd rather see the show cancelled first. That would NOT be a step in the right direction. Temporary fill in host? Fine. Permanent? No.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
