the show, although still successful, wasn't the same after Lisa Ling left. And Joy was great the way she needled everyone with humor. You couldn't be made at her (at least I couldn't) since she understood how to debate without making it intensely personal.

I haven't watched The View in the longest! Since ABC changed their website and made it impossible to watch episodes of some of their shows without a cable subscription.

I tuned in today to see if they'd say anything about Rosie's departure. Whoopi started off hot topics with a coy, "So you had a big weekend...", segueing into Rosie talking about the premiere of her documentary. I eventually turned the channel, apparently like so many others, so I don't know if they ever got around to mentioning it.

Firing Bill Geddie who was the creator and giving him and Barbara zero consulting on this season showed u lose your creators the ratings dwindle. They had no creative power or anything to do with this season. Bring back Bill Geddie and let Babs consult. Meredith vieira show was renewed and she stated she would never return it's been there done that. Lisa Ling has a very successful show on CNN. U know who might be good is Debbie Matenopolous she has grown up and she looks great and was adorable on Meredith vieria show. Debbie returning would be nostaligia.

Well, there's Rosie's answer. And it's a relatively complete answer, so this is not going to be a big PR deal for her, she's going to be fine. She's sold some Manhattan real estate at a profit, is selling her Sarasota mansion (she's moving back to Miami) and will be fine. Good for her!

The View is still a disaster. It's time to fire everyone and start over or just pull the plug.

Rosie hasn't lived in Manhattan as a home base, ever...she's either lived in Connecticut, New York state or New Jersey.

Her current base is in tony Saddle River, New Jersey:

Miami has long been her vacation home spot because Rosie isn't a big traveller, this is her former home in Star Island, which she sold after RH of Miami Lisa Hochstein bulldozed an old mansion on the island and made the neighbours crazy:

I hope she finds a beautiful new home in the sunshine soon.

I like Rosie O, always have, but lately she's been WORKING HER AGENDA into every conversation, alienating the average viewer like myself. I'm sure she means well, but sometimes it's just too much. As for Whoopi seeming checked out, I don't get that impression. I see her as being tired of confrontations w/ Rosie, mixed in with never knowing who her co hosts are going to be. The revolving door needs to be closed and a solid 5 named. I like Nicole Wallace, and Rosie P. isn't that bad. They need Joy back and a younger co host.

The wrong one is leaving.....I need Whoopie to go last year. I need Barbs to return immediately...the haters can hate she isn't nasty or ugly and I love watching the ole battleaxe.

Wendy Williams suggests they get on their hands and knees and go crawling for Joy Behar...I support this. And then she drops the bomb that they get Star Jones back...I'm not at all a big fan of hers. I sorta find her boring to be honest but I'm willing to consider anything.

I like Nicole so keep her.

    • 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.
