Members JONNYSBRO Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) I watched it and was disappointed. I thought Whoppi by far was the best. Thank god she stayed. Rosie was fine but I felt she was a bit off today. Rosie Perez was overbearing, annoying and tried way too hard. I felt Nicole Wallace seemed a bit timid and nervous. They didn't gel well. The tribute to Joan was great. I feel they could have found better co hosts for them. Honestly I think Hasselbeck was a much bigger star then anyone thought. She was the lightening rod and IMO Rosie's best tv was dueling with hasselbeck. It was ratings gold. She was a huge star for the view I didn't love her at the time but can't deny ever since she left the show has been dull.

Members John Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 Elizabeth was having talking points tld to her in her ear piece by bill Gedde. Those were not her thoughts. If you ever saw her on Fox & Friends you can tell that thoughts are not her strong suit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 They should take cue's from the Talk, cause that show is good and the hosts aren't overly annoying(except maybe Sharon Osbourne) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 The talk is a copy of the view. I think the shows chemistry is better then this current view. I hated the small table and big chairs. Let's see how the ratings pull. Elisabeth no matter what though brought the controversy and ratings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 it was also Day 1 and I liked that it was an introduction to the co-hosts The Ro & Ro game was dumb Yes the table could be bigger but all in all a great start to season 18 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KMan101 Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) I liked it. A bit of a snooze TBH but the women aren't obnoxious and it didn't seem ... tacky anymore. The set upgrade [not liking the small table] was much much needed. I like that they used Barbara to open the show and went back to the old View theme. It wasn't bad. It'll get more natural as time goes on. But so far it's an improvement over watching to see Whoopi get annoyed by everyone, Barbara talk over everyone and Sherri make everything about her. I do think they badly need a 5th co-host but I can see why they probably went with four. Adding two new co-hosts and bringing one back is a lot but still ... Whoopi is there for a paycheck and I think she wants the show to be taken seriously. I don't see why people think she hates them or doesn't want to be there. If she didn't she wouldn't have lasted 8 years. A paycheck is a paycheck but still ... Edited September 15, 2014 by KMan101 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BKuzak Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 I watched it. I didn't like the chairs. I thought they should have been closer to the table. Other than that, i thought it was fine. I loved how Rosie O had to bring up the Woody Allen incident...knowing that Barbara would be watching and was on his side. Who knows what's going to happen, it's only say one. Elizabeth and Rosie were very friendly on day one too and we know how that turned out. Once they get more relaxed with each other and get into more hot topics....we'll see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 I thought it was a strong start. I like the set, I thought the Barbara Walters cameo at the beginning was wise to do (as if that shady ho was actually going to retire?), the Joan Rivers tribute was lovely and the chemistry seems to be there. But they need a 5th woman at the table. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) I honestly think Whoppi didn't look happy with today and I adore her. I think it was a mistake to ditch Sherri when she was popular. Nicolle Wallace was so dull. Heck Hasselbeck never bored me sometimes I felt like slapping her but she was a much bigger star for the view then they expected. If Rosie doesn't work out they should bring Hasselbeck back for the lightening rod. Also I will say in their defense I remember Meredith, Joy, Star, Barbara and Debbie had jitters in their first shows.

Members Gray Bunny Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 I guess it's just an adjustment period. Granted, I don't watch the View anymore, but having 2 total newbies means half the ladies I don't really care about their opinions. I mean, who goes to Rosie Perez for in depth political commentary? I guess she'll prove me wrong one day. Or maybe she'll tell me the world is flat. Once upon a time, Barbara was the only known face sitting next to 4 total strangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 Lol well they definitely took my idea of giving the hoses comfortable chairs, making the "table" more of a coffee table, and giving the set a loftier vibe. You're welcome, ABC! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 Nicolle was underwhelming. Like seriously. I swear they should've cast a more controversial conservative figure like Sarah Palin, Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter, or one of them heffas from Fox--someone to rival Rosie and bring the show back to its former, messy glory. Nicolle is already giving me vibes that she is going to hold back, either because she's reserved or fearful of the fan reaction. I hope she proves me wrong because I need a conservative on that show that I love to hate and Rosie can pounce on. I don't see how this cast of four is going to do it. If they plan on filling in that fifth seat, they better pull out all stops. Rosie P. didn't impress me either and I love her. And Rosie O. sitting up there with her feet out was just gutter butt. I got more from the swap meet version of The View, The Real, today than I did this show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 What this shows people is Hasselbeck brought out best in Rosie. I will say in 2007 it was great tv they were ratings gold. It shows not much how much we despised Hasselbeck she was a lightening rod and she was the biggest star the show had in its run. No Hasselbeck and Rosie is dull and Nicole is boring as hell. She smiles and bores badly I don't see her lasting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
