The Talk ratings plummet following Sharon Osbourne's dramatic exit

I have PTSD

They were already low lmao

Cancel that POS

What a shock, the member that most fraus connect with leaves and the ratings tank... who could've seen that coming? I guess when you go woke, you go broke.

SJWs ruin everything.

If the View was smart, they'd snap Sharon up.

I don’t think she’s the reason, the big break is. Many probably didn’t know when it was coming back.

If people wanted to watch a bunch of POC peacocks competing to be the biggest bitch they could just watch The Real.

Sad, last days.

That's a clever idea, R6.

R8 Exactly, now there's a show with no white women on it, why isn't there demands for representation on that show?

R10 because you can’t say things like that to the crowd that wants revenge under the guise of equality.

R10

Clearly trolls in this thread. There is a white woman on the panel (Amanda).

Carrie Ann Inaba just announced her departure from the show for "health reasons." It's now the lowest rated talk show in daytime. I think the writing is on the wall and the show won't be picked up for another season. I HATE Sharon O. but lets be honest, she was the only "name" on the panel and that was a problem for the show.

R13

Now? It was already the lowest before Sharon left.

It went from 3,000 viewers to 1,500?

Will these corporations start to realize that wokeness is bad for business? Appeasing a loud vocal minority on Twitter is stupid.

I think all it needs is a cast shakeup. Keep Elaine and Amanda (because they’re already new), fire Carrie Ann and Sheryl and hire 3 other women.

Hopefully she’ll be deported soon.

R17 see R13 Carrie Ann just left the show.

R14 Yes the ratings were already tanking before Sharon left, but since they returned, they fell another 50%.

This show is over.

I loathe these types of shows...can't switch the channel quickly enough if I land on one by mistake. Why on earth should anyone care what any of these people think about, well, anything? The mind boggles.

Admittedly, Sharon is popular amongst fraus and was probably a bigger part of the draw. But the show was likely on its last legs anyway. This probably now gives her the chance to say the show tanked without her.

The weird Sharon Osbourne fanatics will act as if they're vindicated, but the only thing we've learned here is that half of the (already embarrassingly few) viewers of the show were tuning in because they liked to hear Sharon say things like "Justin Bieber peeing in a bucket means he wants to be a black man."

If that was the case, then what value was the show really providing, anyway?

Yeah R22 sums this up in a way that - even if everyone else got fired from the show and the show was taken off the air and could never be watched again, Sharon still comes out of this looking like a total nightmare, and i can’t see how this makes her attractive for future work in any way.

How is this show still on the air? And more importantly, why would anyone subject themselves to these fat frumpy fraus? This show needs to be "cancelled" in more ways than one.

My wife might be interested in hosting it. She's very popular and socially aware.

R23 just proves how tone deaf wokesters are.

R12, clearly stupid people in this thread...they were talking about The Real which has a panel of only colored women.

I have r8 and her ilk FF-ed. She must be the racist CUNT all over in the Meghan Sussex threads

I just do not get the assholes like r26 who say "colored" like it's still 1961.

It was about to get canceled anyway. The ratings had gone down the year before the sharon mess

Boris and the Sockpuppets are polluting most of this thread.

“I hate Sharon Osbourne. But let’s be honest ...”

He’s so dickless, he shouldn’t be cyberstalking trans.

[quote] I just do not get the assholes like R[26] who say "colored" like it's still 1961.

He really wants to call them the N word. R26 is like a 7 yr old, who thinks if he calls them 'colored", no one will realize he's calling them a racial slur.

R26 is just a piece of shit, racist. Pure and simple. A RACIST

If only Virginia Graham and Pamela Mason were around! Those ladies really knew how to chitchat to the extreme!

It’s because of that fish eater and Wonton!!!

They canceled As the World Turns for this crap.

The Talk is awful. There was a cute 2 year run where it genuinely looked like it was about to take over The View as the top panel chat show, but once Aisha and then Julie left? Yeah, it's been a downward spiral and I'd be glad to see it go. The View remains supreme.

The last laugh and the last intelligent question posed on that drivel!

Marie Osmond got the second to last laugh.

Bring us back CBS.

We'd get better ratings!

Maybe they can replace her with Ellen.

What is the essential difference between " colored people" and "people of color"?

Poor Sheryl: every project she's involved with tanks.

R28 If you're so offended , tell us why the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) has no problem with their name?

I don't watch any of these lady cackle shows but I always found it strange that over the decades the fat one was always the token black woman.

Better no show than one lead by a racist, spouting her racist ideology.

Exactly how did the ratings plummet? They were last when Sharon was on the show. They’re still last. Last is last, darlings.

[quote] What is the essential difference between " colored people" and "people of color"?

If you don't know this, you are too stupid to live

You know. You're just a racist

Now go away. you're a bad dog. And I don't want to get your shit on the bottom of my shoe

They're never going to cancel this show. It's owned by the network and is dirt cheap to produce. Everyone will forget about "Mrs O" in about a week and the ratings will be back to middling in no time.

I wish they’d replace it with a spunky, wacky Match Game show. Ross could be the nelly CNR. Rosie could be Richard Dawson. Paris Hilton could be the airhead female celebrity. Rotate the rest with The Love Boat alumni. Cheap, fluffy programming.

Will CBS finally expand The Bold and the Beautiful to 90 minutes? The world has been waiting.

[quote] What is the essential difference between " colored people" and "people of color"?

None, of course. But I've observed that whenever someone points that out, people get really, really upset (see, for example, R46).

What, they went from 10 viewers to 8? Whoop de fucking doo.

R48 Doesn't ABC have the rights to Match Game with their prime time version hosted by Alec Baldwin? Last I read, TV Line reported that Season 6 is still in contention as one of the network's summer programs.

"What is the essential difference between " colored people" and "people of color"? If you don't know this, you are too stupid to live

Oh, sweetie, you're just too cute. Everyone wants to pinch your cheeks.

Arf, arf, big boy.

Colored people vs People of Color.

They let the most interesting one go. Cancel ‘em.

What's the difference between "gay man" and "fucking faggot"?

It's just an innocent question!

"What's the difference between "gay man" and "fucking faggot"?"

Well, most of the posters are the examples of the former, while you exemplify the latter.

That is one fucking great burn R57. I wish I knew you in real life!

"That is one fucking great burn [R57]. I wish I knew you in real life!"

Well, I'm both easy AND cheap.

R59 Great! I will treat you to brunch anytime!

Boris the Nazi Incel trying to normalize racism again.

Why isn't this thread closed?

The best is when racist Trump trash and Nazis try to co-opt Monty Python, as if Monty Python aren't YUUUUUGE liberals opposed to racism, religion, Trumpism, etc.

[quote] why isn't there demands for representation on that show?

Oh, dear.

R61 R62, I like how you all have no sardonic or witty repartee for R57, but I'm sure in your heads you think you're the smart ones.

R62, John Cleese would like a word.

The show is called the TALK but they silenced talking. They let a fat dumb black idiot fake cry about having PTSD from a conversation about why someone else had an opinion on someone else. Head spinning yet? It’s six degrees of wokeness. How can she cry racism when the NWord wasn’t uttered? Piers Morgan have his thoughts on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. He gets called racist. Sharon , on a show where current affairs are TALKED about, gives her take, Sherry begins her hyper focused on one agenda “black people being treated unfairly ” (which wasn’t even the issue ) so Sharon defends Piers and she’s labeled a racist. I hate all these idiots, but they’re on shows where they all express opinions. So how does someone claim they’re a victim, have PTSD over a discussion about someone else ? Nice way to get herself the head set at the Talk table. Funny how no one wants to hear this unfunny crybaby talk.

It’s all about Da Real.

Cancel this crap. Bring back ATWT!

All of those chat shows are being destroyed by woke and cancel culture—that includes shows like Real Time with Bill Maher. Who is going to turn into a bunch of fraus chasing their own tails pandering to a demographic of similar fraus at home? Boring AF.

The easiest thing to avoid any discussion or having to engage in some thoughtful exchange of ideas is to label the other person a " racist" or " Nazi." It's a sign of a lazy mind. And lazy minds don't suffer from PTSD, Sheryl.

And "Woke" and "SJW" is not lazy r70?

R71 No.

R66: you actually called someone a fat black bitch then wonder how someone can be racist without saying the N word? This is DL now? And why bother saying the N word?

What a shock r72

R56, one is what a DLer would say and one is what a LA infiltrator would say.

I agree with r47, people here keep saying they will cancel and it's highly, highly unlikely. These panel shows are like no-brainers for the networks, they bring in enough numbers with the key female demo and cost very little. The show even survived Julie Chen's exit when Les Moonves' got cancelled.

And there has been turnover on the cast of this show for years now and its still on. I believe there are problems with production staff that has caused recent departures like Eve. Its more likely that the network will fire the production staff and possibly build a new panel around Sheryl and Carrie Ann.

Go woke, go broke. Dems need to learn this lesson pronto.

So, between The Talk and The Real, there are 8 colored women and one white woman. (And, woke assholes, if you have a problem with 'colored women' you also have to have a problem with 'white woman' but you don't, do you?) Ah, representation!

It’s a tired idea. They’ll bring back the cheap Maury format as soon as the herd gets immunized. Covid has created a new generation of dysfunctional poor people for the folks at home to judge.

R46 Time to switch to decaf, Mary!

Amanda brings nothing to the table. Her theater queen husband died from Covid and she gets to co-host a talk show? That makes sense. Idiotic.

R81, she gets to be the pretty blonde white woman who gets to agree that she and everyone like her are just terrible human beings in order to make sure Sheryl doesn't cry and Elaine gets to feel even woker!

R82 she is a terrible human being, just not for the reasons she thinks.

Sharon has often said one of her best friends is Victoria Beckham. That says a lot about both of them. Cunts.

If I could stand to listen to addle-brained dum-dums like Pierce Morgan and Sharon Osboure for more than 10 seconds, I'd maybe have an opinion. But from what I've seen of the two of them over the past two decades, I'd say fire both of them and dump them on an island with no electricity and no one will ever know or care what happens to either vapid media asshole.

Is Sheryl the same dumb bitch who told Bill Maher there have always been Christians, and the earth was once flat?

The show is as good as dead now that. Carrie Ann and Sharon are gone.. There are no hosts left that anyone cares about. Sharon, Sara Gilbert, Julie Chen, Marie Osmond, Eve and Aisha were the heartbeat of the show when they were on.

Now it’s just a pale imitation of The Real with one token white lady

Sheryl stinks - down there.

R87

They have to find permanent replacements, obviously. And they will.

I thought Elaine was a bit ridiculous on Project Runway, but I like her on this show.

Did Carrie Ann leave the show or is she on some break?

ABANDON SHIP !!!

The whole schtick of the show is debate. What fool removes a controversal debater? That's ratings gold!

R93

She wasn’t “debating”. She had a meltdown and sweared on live TV. She was the only one who had the nasty attitude over a question many were wondering, don’t pin it on anyone else.

Even before this incident, the show was already at the bottom of the toilet, so keeping her and expecting "ratings gold" doesn't really compute.

R94

She was also very, very condescending and rude to her co-hosts.

Black twitter was demanding Sharon be fired before they went on the air that day. They can’t take that someone might have a different opinion on their white queen Meghan markle.

R96 I would be to if I had to deal with that group of brainless fraus.

What the former co-hosts revealed about her was just as bad (imo); plus, the subsequent investigation by the network probably uncovered a lot more that we don't even know.

The show is so WOKE that it is falling asleep in the ratings. The wokeness is a stink it cannot rid itself of.

If I have to hear one of those idiots talk about their PTSD and traumaone more time!

[quote]What is the essential difference between " colored people" and "people of color"?

R40 I mean, isn't the difference kind of obvious? "Colored people," similar to other racialized epithets like "boy" or worse, carries with it the weight of it's use in Black oppression.

"people of color" refers to people who live in the country of Color, which I believe is in the Caucuses.

It will be nice to see Sheryl out on the street soon for what she did.

[quote]The show is as good as dead now that. Carrie Ann and Sharon are gone.. There are no hosts left that anyone cares about.

r87 there are innumerable women in news and entertainment who shop themselves to these networks ALL THE TIME. The show itself is not getting cancelled. They can hire a new panel by next fall and ratings will go up, which is exactly what I think they will do.

I think Brooke Baldwin, who just mysteriously left CNN, will probably end up on The Talk or another panel show. Demi Lovato is another who is probably in this market as well. The networks are always watching people in the industry who they can buy up.

Sheryl Underwood cannot be fired in this social climate we are in, its not happening people. CBS will NEVER live it down. She will be the Whoopi of the panel.

They all just sit there and agree with each other for the entire show. It's hilariously bad.

[quote]I like how you all have no sardonic or witty repartee for [R57]

Witty repartee? The guy just did the same thing all of you basic bitches do when criticized: start being homophobes.

Then he logged in with a sockpuppet a few minutes later to praise himself on his "fucking great burn." Embarrassing. No one should be spending even an ounce of energy trying to engage this dork in some witty repartee.

R106 please refer to R57 to figure out which one you are.

That's embarrassing, R107.

I guess you're the "fucking faggot" then R108?

"Drew" isn't Woke or Coke, and she's just delightful!

[quote] She had a meltdown and sweared

Oh dear.

R41 you bitches need to quit blaming Sheryl. The racist viewers are pushing back because they feel Sharon was "set up", but Sharon, the asshole bitch on wheels manager of musicians for decades in the cut-throat music industry, did this all on her own. She had been on this show for YEARS and didn't know how to handle a question that maybe she didn't feel she wanted to answer? You don't attack your co-host by starting hurling expletives to the point where you have to be bleeped? It's a talk show for god's sake, YOU put yourself out there when you publicly supported him, yet you shouldn't be asked about it? And Sheryl's question was not even offensive, it was based on the news reports and it provided Sharon the opportunity to explain l articulate why she thought her friend Piers was justified in targeting Meghan and why he was not a racist.

Sharon has a potty mouth.

What Sheryl did was not against a guest or a stranger. The vicious attack and blindside by Sheryl was against her supposed "friend" Sharon. A friend would never have agreed to participate in such an attack on Sharon.

Sheryl is a dumb bunny.

R115: thanks Karen

R112, you never watched the actual exchange, did you? It was more along the lines of Sharon asking, "So, because I support my friend and don't think he is a racist, now I'm a racist?" which neither Sherly nor Elaine countered. Then she asked, repeatedly, what he did that was racist. Which, again, they couldn't answer. Then, she asked if just not liking Meghan Markle made someone racist and, again, they couldn't answer and just kept saying nebulous "racism is in the other person's perception" type bullshit.

R117 yes I watched it. You ignore the way Sharon reacted though; totally emotional and on the offense. Apparently they did answer but their answers were not good enough for you. Sheryl said that nothing directly racist was said but she felt the way Piers and the rest of the press targeted Meghan made many black people feel that way. This was right after the iPad interview when Meghan disclosed the discussion on Archie's complexion and Piers Morgan just got right back to ridiculing her all because she ghosted him at a bar almost a decade ago.

Funny how any criticism of Israel gets someone labeled an antisemite yet black people need to pull up actually quotes of people publicly saying the N word to prove that their actions were racist. One of Meghan's critics posted a picture of a baby monkey held by two persons and called Archie the monkey and was only fired after public pressure demanded it, yet it is so far fetched to even PERCEIVE (yeah bitch I said it) that others in the press could be racist.

The Talk certainly "woke" up many viewers to the fact that the show is so politically geared to please the delicate sensibilities of their viewers that it lost all sense of reality.

R118, like I said, pure bullshit. Your feelings and perceptions are your problem. If you can't point to something concrete, you don't have an argument. Not liking Markle and thinking she's a narcissitic piece of crap and a liar is not being racist. That was Sharon's entire point. And, no, they did not answer her question. She asked what he said that was racist and they could not point to anything at all. Nothing.

r120 have you ever experienced homophobia without someone outright calling you a faggot? If you haven't let me know because you'd be the first gay person on earth with that experience. From your standpoint someone can be homophobic and your feelings about it are totally invalid because they didn't actually call you a faggot.

And I dont get why we are still even talking about this. Sharon went on a completely unprofessional explicative fit on air during a daytime TV show. Forget the Meghan drama. That alone is enough to get her canned.

Cancel this shitfest!

Except that's not the equivalent situation. The equivalent situation would be someone saying they don't like me because I'm an asshole, narrcissitic user piece of shit who lies all the time (you know, like Meghan!) and me turning around and saying that makes them a homophobe.

What you are arguing is that minorities are above reproach for being horrible human beings simply because they are minorities. Sharon literally asked if people just can't like a black person because they don't like them and Sheryl and Elaine would not answer. That's a ridiculous standard.

Sharon Osborne is hardly racist, she has been nicer to Sheryl U than anyone else on the show for many years. This was a bad day for both of them and now only the white woman is ousted. Sheryl is going to bring the entire show to cancellation because of her dramatics.

Sharon is an old white British lady. Casual but insincere racism has been drilled into her since birth.

[quote]Sharon literally asked if people just can't like a black person because they don't like them and Sheryl and Elaine would not answer.

They did answer, r123.

And I call tell you are a drama queen yourself, if you think anything Meghan Markle has done qualifies her as a "horrible human being", when you have people like Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un walking around. Even I don't agree with everything she has done, but I would not call her horrible. Lets save that for people who really deserve it instead of throwing it around just to get a point across, geez.

The show is nothing but frau flypaper!! We're all better off.

Once Marie and Eve left, it was over for me.

Has Mrs Chen Moonves commented yet?

It's man month on the Talk! They are pathetically desperate.

Ugh. Jerry O’Connell is so desperate for a job. He’s cringeworthy. He desperately wanted the co-host job with Kelly Ripa and didn’t get it so now he’s whoring around The Talk. Yuck. Switched the channel immediately.

I rarely watch TV anymore but caught a few minutes of The Talk today. What a fucking waste of time. Jerry O'Connell? He wasn't on today but who gives a fuck what he thinks about anything. I can't believe Sheryl is the last one standing. She's about as much fun as watching lesbians rutting. Everyone else can choke on a huge fat black cock. Mark McGrath! Puke.

A show with men giving their opinions? And to think this show was created by a lesbian!

[quote] I rarely watch TV anymore but caught a few minutes of The Talk today. What a fucking waste of time.

It's a very bland show. They barely talk about anything that is offensive. When they do, they don't really give their opinions and just gloss over it

R135 They need to hire me. I’ll get the ratings! This old dyke’s got it!

Cackle cackle

Add a young hunky guy to the panel, the ratings problem will be solved.

To The Talk producers: hire me, I need the work! Not as your new male host, but to your production staff so that I can provide these easy solutions for you.

R136, Rosie would be a good addition and would boost ratings. The problem is she's just end up quitting after a couple of seasons.

Sharon changed the face of television.

Sharon looks fantastic for her age

Gurl don't even act like you were calling out work to see Sharon fuckin Osbourne live on The Talk before she left.
