Members detroitpiston Posted February 18, 2015 Members Share Posted February 18, 2015 There was nothing refreshing about Rosie O bringing up Frozen, her kids, or her weight loss a million times, constantly making every topic about herself or her views and just getting an attitude and then completely checking out of the discussion when she couldn't. Whoopi ain't chit either but she knows how to work with a panel much better. She doesn't suffocate the show with boring, awkward self indulging segments of her doing crafts, having a former overweight person come on just to tell her how awesome and inspiring she is, or bringing little kids on just so they can sing Let It Go ad nauseum. She needed to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted February 18, 2015 Members Share Posted February 18, 2015 So someone talking about heart health cause Heart attacks kill by the minute is a bad thing or someone promoting weight loss. Yes she got a little Frozen Crazy but Dsney may have been amping that up I felt Rosie was more laid back and not as in your face as 2006-07 and found that refreshing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted February 18, 2015 Members Share Posted February 18, 2015 Dead on. I really like Rosie, but her personal stuff ate Hot Topics all of the time. Frozen....O_O 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted February 18, 2015 Members Share Posted February 18, 2015 I'll say it again, but both Rosie O and Whoopi were not good for the show. Rosie O. might have appeared more subdued this go-around, but I have to wonder if that was due to being told backstage to act like that and not by choice. I do have to wonder if perhaps Rosie O. can't handle the daily grind of a talk show and also have a successful marriage? Whoopi also has employed the same bullying tactics used by Rosie O in the past. Perhaps, both should go and we bring on actually credible news people to be on the panel.. especially since The View is part of the ABC news division now (or did I misread that?). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted February 18, 2015 Members Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) Im shocked that EP Bill Wolff hasnt hired his Journalist wife Alison Stewart who began on MTV: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alison_Stewart I would keep Nicole and rebuild the Panel and yes a mix of news and entertainment folk would be best.

Members JONNYSBRO Posted February 18, 2015 Members Share Posted February 18, 2015 The biggest thing is bring Bill Geddie back. He was the heart and soul of the view. Fire Bill Wolff. I hated Rosie this go around she was dull, seemed bored and never really gelled with this group. The only time i saw Rosie be more like hersekf is when whoppi was on medical leave.Rosie and Whoppi are way to big of personalities to be on the same panel. It's like putting Jennifer Lopez and Mariah Carey on the same panel it doesn't work. Nicole who I was really tough on has improved. Rosie Perez is terrible she looks lost and not prepared. She doesn't come off very smart at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members John Posted February 19, 2015 Members Share Posted February 19, 2015 Bill Gedde was horrible. If anything Barbara was the heart and soul, not him. She created the View in her vision. BG was just a producer on set. ABC ont hire him back and only kept him til Babs retired 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted February 23, 2015 Members Share Posted February 23, 2015 They need to bring back Joy, honestly. I second having a Brinks truck parked outside of her house. I hope that her return as a guest co-host was somewhat of a test but I don't know that she'd return. Has she said anything anywhere about whether she'd consider going back or not? She seems to love the show but at the same time seems content with having moved on. Whoopi has been a major reason I've watched over the years but I think it's probably time for her to go as well. It's been a nice, solid run. It's time to move on. (Add me in as another one who LOVED her sitcom on NBC). I'd adore Meredith and Lisa and Star and Joy all being brought back but none of them will probably ever come back as a permanent host. They should. Although I probably wouldn't go with Star again. I also noticed how they've somehow pulled Babs into the show as a guest host every now and then. I have to LOL when Whoopi says "it's been a while but Barbara is back" ... um, not really. I feel like she's been on at least once a month if not more than that. It's almost like before where she'd be gone for days and then show up for an episode. Not much different IMO. I'm glad to see Barbara return. I was tired of her by the time she retired but I'd take her back, too. I think having her guest co-host on Friday's is a smart thing to do. I do find it interesting they've pulled out Joy and Barbara. I'd only keep Nicolle Wallace. She's a bit boring but I really do like her. A lot. The show needs a solid panel. These guest co-hosts have GOT to stop. Seriously. Enough. It was awful when Rosie P. AND Whoopi were both off the show in January. Stacy London would be a good choice but I don't find her all that interesting TBH. I've liked Michelle Williams co-hosting. She has some spark to her. Carolina Bermudez had some spark as well. I love Rosie Perez as a person and I'm so on the fence about dumping her but I say have Bermudez replace Perez, keep Wallace, bring back Joy, keep Whoopi for one more year (to transition the show) and find a fifth cohost. Stop this guest co-host crap. Why do they seem so unwilling to fill that fifth chair? They haven't had a true fifth co-host in ages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted February 24, 2015 Members Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) It's been nice having five co-hosts so far this week. Consistent. That's what is needed. The never ending guest co-host thing has to stop. Samantha Ponder and Stacy London are so being tested out, IMO. Stacy looks very comfortable at that desk. I'd be OK with this panel. I still think they need a complete and total overhaul but I don't know that they think they do. So if those were the two co-hosts, I'd be fine with it.

Members Khan Posted February 24, 2015 Members Share Posted February 24, 2015 I'd rather have Nicole, I guess, over some blow-up doll Fox News has discarded. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted February 24, 2015 Members Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Id hire someone in their 20s 30s 40s (Nicolle Wallace) 50's and 60's so all views are repersented Samantha is 29 Stacey is 45 Nicolle is 43 Rosie is 50 Whoppi is 59 Edited February 24, 2015 by John 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 24, 2015 Members Share Posted February 24, 2015 I'd like to see one co-host who is of Middle Eastern descent and/or a practicing Muslim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted February 24, 2015 Members Share Posted February 24, 2015 Id pick Naya (28), Samantha (30), Nicolle (43) then two new people 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted February 28, 2015 Members Share Posted February 28, 2015 I really enjoyed the show all week. This set of five works for me. I like Stacy London more than I expected to, and Ponder brings something to the table as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
