Members Chris B Posted October 31, 2014 Members Share Posted October 31, 2014 It doesn't have to be Bethenny or Lisa, I was just using them as examples to add some levity to the show. It's too serious and lacking that fun element. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted October 31, 2014 Members Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) The thing is, Rosie O'Donnell came in with a lot of conditions that ABC was happy to oblige: namely firing Bill Geddie and making the tone of the show more serious. Rosie O'Donnell specifically said: No Real Housewives. She didn't want another Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and ABC was on board with that. And I do agree with her, American television is dumb enough without a reality star on the panel. The issue is, they maybe went a little too serious and the 4 woman panel doesn't work, they need a 5th and they need to be young and fun. Meghan McCain would have been absolutely ideal and but for her contractual obligations with a small start up network, I firmly believe she would have been hired. And who knows, maybe The View is waiting for her contract to run out so they can hire her? Moving The View to ABC News is likely what quartermainefan suggests: to make the news demos more favourable.

Members Cheap21 Posted October 31, 2014 Members Share Posted October 31, 2014 thank you for not trying to pimp out Ana again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted November 1, 2014 Members Share Posted November 1, 2014 Honestly, Ana would've been a better choice than Rosie Perez. I also don't think ALL Real Housewives are dumb, which is why I feel banning them was stupid. I think LuAnn could be fun in this format or even Carole Radziwill. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted November 1, 2014 Members Share Posted November 1, 2014 I thought Lauren Sanchez who had tried out for the view in 1999 and was the runner up to Lisa Ling would have been better then Rosie Perez. I feel that she is boring Perez. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members slick jones Posted November 4, 2014 Members Share Posted November 4, 2014 And she was great, as usual! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted November 4, 2014 Members Share Posted November 4, 2014 God I didn't realize how much I missed Joy until she was on today she definitely lived up the panel. Although Joy has stated she will never come back as co host and 16 seasons was enough for her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted November 5, 2014 Members Share Posted November 5, 2014 I think the show is starting to gel,and Rosie Perez is making some good points in her conversations. I think they need someone in their 20s early 30s to balance the show. Suggestions anyone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted November 17, 2014 Members Share Posted November 17, 2014 After the tears they cried for other famous people accused of horrific crimes, why is any producer letting them talk about Bill Cosby now? This isn't a news show. It's a cheap-jack daytime filler only known for women screaming at each other. I'm cringing at this, especially the undertone of how hard it is for them. http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/watch-the-view-bill-cosby-rape-allegations 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted November 21, 2014 Members Share Posted November 21, 2014 While I understand that Rosie O'Donnell was abused when she was young, so I take that into consideration when I say this. Her attitude on today's show was too OTT for me. She should realize that while these allegations have never been proven, had there been a case at the time he would have faced his accusers. Now, all these years later these people are coming out of the woodwork again. Did she ever think that maybe they were once again trying to get their 15 minutes of fame. People like that gawdawful Janice Dickinson creature who haven't been relevant for years are just jumping on the bandwagon. I don't know if he did it or not, but in this country, you are innocent until proven guilty. She's had people say things about her over the years. I like Rosie, but she was a little too judgmental for my taste today. Shame about Mike Nichols. He did a lot of great projects over the years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted November 21, 2014 Members Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) Even though evidence is only they said/he said I love the openess of discussion here and they should be allowed to discuss this. I think Rosie O was great. She was basically where there is smoke there is fire and just because Cosby cannot be jailed for this anymore doesnt mean it should be kept quiet. I did like Rosie P talking about how Social Media has already convicted him without evidence Nicolle was good too because she was honest & said I need more info Its Whoppi who bugged me. Im sorry but Cosby is not even the same as Paula Dean saying the N word or Tiger woods having consenual affairs Although not surprised, Whoop doesnt belive Roman Polanski did anything wrong with that 13 year old girl decades ago Edited November 22, 2014 by John 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted November 21, 2014 Members Share Posted November 21, 2014 IA with your assessment of them as I watched it live yesterday. Whoopi and Rosie P though need to accept that these allegations are likely true bc defending him at this point would only make anyone look bad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
