The View — Part 33

The Biden appearance was superb.

Makes me sad for the country.

I was not impressed by the Biden appearance. Yes, he's obviously better than Trump, but he still seems like an old man who struggles to answer questions coherently. Other older politicians like Bernie or Pelosi sound far more with it than he does.

I would have voted for Joe if he was a head in a Futurama Bottle.

Every decision he made was legal. Every decision was for the betterment of the country and even when given a bad situation always made it better. The evacuation of Kabul on the withdrawal from Afghanistan (as negotiated by Trump) was a Herculean success.

During Operation Frequent Wind, over 7,000 people were evacuated from Saigon, but no other military in the world could do what the U.S. military accomplished in evacuating 124,000 people from Kabul under Commander in Chief Biden.

However, Biden was always running against the Murdoch/Marketing/Analytics Machine that would never give a win to Democrats. That's why I liked the discussion on the Bipartisan Border Security Bill that Trump killed.

That's just Joe's MO, R3. He said they told him not to be so "Joe" when answering questions. But that's just who he is and who he has always been. He makes sense to me, so to each his own.

I disagree, R5. That's the way he's been since 2020 (when his decline was already obvious) and the "Joe has always been like this" narrative was started by his handlers. But if you watch clips from his time as VP, he is far, far sharper. You can't watch this video from 2012 and tell me you think he's the same here as he is today.

It looks like the announcement of the Novo Pappum will preempt The View on the West Coast.

But they have been posting the same day video on YouTube two hours later.

It looks odd seeing those happy faces in Rome when they can be electing a Pope more like Clarence Thomas than St. Francis.

He's exactly the same just older. He speaks in a softer tone and a bit slower. I remember him during the Thomas hearings, so I've been familiar with his manner of speaking for quite some time. In my post at R5, I was referring to his lack of brevity. But as for his mental acuity, just listen to his first answer today, it had more detail and more "big words" than Trump has used in his lifetime.

Here comes the Pope, gotta go.

Does Bernie Sanders speak more slowly or quietly than he did 20 years ago? Does Trump? What you're describing are visible signs of decline.

If you were preempted by the Pope-a-palooza, on the West Coast, here is the full episode (without commercials)

"The Five" on FOX ripped President Biden and Dr. Biden apart on their show this afternoon. They were reprehensible the way they criticized them - and I'm glad. That's all the proof you need to know that Biden did fantastic today - it's when the FOX/Trump Propaganda Channel is ripping them to shreds. If they acted positively to the interview, I'd be worried.

[quote]Sunny brings up the infamous Kamala interview and tries to flip the script and blame everyone else but Sunny Hostin. You tried. It was good to hear Biden's thoughts on Kamala's answer.

LOL! This must still be eating at her since October. Knowing she's the only one who sunk Kamala's chances of ever becoming President - so let's pretend it's everyone else's fault. Who'd have thought a close-up of Sunny's face would be the opening of a 'Trump for President' commercial, and it got him elected !

Ohhhhhh, how I'd wish in the heat of any moment with Sunny, Ana or Alyssa would just blurt out "You're the fuckin' reason why Harris lost the election!"

Sunny's framing of the question to Biden today was ridiculous. "Did you really insist there be no daylight between you and Kamala?" What was Biden gonna say other than to deny that? And his denial only served to make Kamala's original answer look even worse! So good job again, Sunny! I imagine Kamala will be *thrilled* to see you at the next meeting of your beloved Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated.

At least today Sunny called out the new pope for his past anti-gay opinions. The rest tried to insist that he said these things years ago and that the climate has changed.

Whoopi will probably come back Monday and wonder when Leo IV will invite her back to stand as a symbol of great comedy.

She'd have to hop in her time machine to meet with Leo IV.

50 years of public service destroyed by the Trump/Murdoch shit storm.

Sad

I thought for sure Sunny was going to question why 'white smoke' was a yes, and 'black smoke' was a no. She lost her chance of inserting racism in the Pope's election.

I wish Joy would make up her mind on whether she's Catholic or not, so we know what to believe when she talks about religion. When Rosie was hosting the show, Rosie said many times she was a 'recovering Catholic' and left the Church a long time ago. Joy said she was the same - raised Catholic, left the Church and became an Atheist. She really had us believing her for the past 20+ years (always reminding us that she was an Atheist - especially when the Catholic religion was one of the topics). And today she described herself as a 'lapsed Catholic but still a Catholic'? Is she now a 'recovering Atheist' if she's returned to Catholicism ?

Joy is a Secular Italian Catholic.

She likes Christmas and Easter.

Transubstantiation and the Feast of the Circumcision...not so much.

[quote]The rest tried to insist that he said these things years ago and that the climate has changed.

Which is 100% true. You grow, you learn - let's hope he's not the same person he was 12 years ago and has been stunted for the past 12 years. Sunny, of all people, has often credited being on the show for changing the way she thinks about 'women's rights to choose' (she actually credits Whoopi with helping her see the other side) If she can grow in nine years, he could grow in twelve.

R19, she has said she is agnostic. I don't ever recall her saying she is an atheist. She's probably says she's Catholic because she was raised Catholic but is no longer a practicing Catholic.

R21, Whoopi's mentioned she's had at least seven abortions, so I suppose she wouId be the go-to gal on pro-choice. Sunny's stance also changed on LGB when her goddaughter came out as lesbian.

R22 During the Rosie season, she proudly called herself an Atheist (it was Rosie who called herself Agnostic). As she said (along with Rosie) - she's a recovering Catholic, and endlessly mocked the Church. She rolled her eyes whenever Hasslebeck and Sherri Shepherd spoke of their Christian faith - she didn't believe it any of it.

If you're raised Catholic and leave the church and their beliefs for another belief system (agnostic, atheist) you are no longer a Catholic. That's like being a Republican all your life, and at 50 you leave the Republicans and join the Democrats. You're no longer a Republican if you left the party and no longer endorse their policies.

R23, for the love of Pete (I won't say for the love of God or you may flip out) here is snippet of an interview with Joy

On an ABC News show, Focus on Faith (hosted by Father Edward Beck on, I believe, March 17, 2011), Behar stated:

EB: I said to you before, Wikipedia, I don't know if you can believe anything on Wikipedia. It said on there that you think that now you're an agnostic. What does that mean?

Joy Behar: Well, I would go to that. I wouldn't call myself an atheist. Because that's a commitment to something. I'm a-theist. And I'm not atheist. Cause I feel very modest in this conversation in the sense that I don't know. I don't know what it is.

EB: But do you pray to someone, something out there?

Joy Behar : No.

EB: You don't.

Joy Behar : No.

R24 So she was an Atheist in 2006, an Agnostic in March, 2011 and on May 9, 2025 she's saying she's a Catholic. How convenient - she changes for her audience.

R25, I seriously don't give a fuck.

R26 Yet here you are responding not once, but three times. Looks like you give 3 fucks.

R27 Looks like a slow week for booking guests. Maybe all the A-listers are out of town already for their summer vacation ?

Matteo Lane recently published a cookbook. Perhaps he and Joy will have a lasagna cook off

R26, I only responded because you seem to be obsessed with Joy's views on religion or lack thereof. You refuse to shut up about it, so I tried to settle it once and for all. The problem is you don't want to let it go. You seem to want to prove she's using religion to appease certain guests or whatever. She can convert to Judaism tomorrow is she so pleases. It's her life, her choice. So go forth and continue to bitch but I won't be responding from now on. Cool? Good.

R29, do they still have Sweeps months? If so, they should be booking the cream of the crop for this period. Scheduled guests do look a bit sparse so they may have some segments set aside for breaking political news where they can schedule a politician or journalist last minute to cover whatever story needs a political analyst.

Sorry, R31 was meant for R28. Go forth and spread the gospel but leave me the fuck out of it.

[quote] So go forth and continue to bitch but I won't be responding from now on.

A promise made but let's see if you keep it. I doubt it.

[quote]Go forth and spread the gospel but leave me the fuck out of it.

You jumped into it - no one invited you.

Sunny changed her views on the new Pope when she found out he's part Haitian. She loves him now.

I guess despite census documentation listing the Pope's family as white for the last 100 years, he's not one of those Nikki Haley style "chameleons" that Sunny hates.

Didn't she actually say. We have a black Pope!?

Sunny said, “we actually have a Black Pope”.

And while discussing Trump violating the emoluments clause, Whoopi said "There are politicians and then there's us. We are the 'we the people' that everybody keeps talking about. You can't sit this one out. You saw, they came, they showed you. And now all of us are other. We are all other." Huh? She sounds like Trump with the incoherent rambling that comes out of her mouth.

Chef’s kiss!

I thought for sure they'd discuss Jeanine Pirro's appointment. Ana would've had ripped her a new one.

R38 What didn't you understand her saying ? She was pretty clear to me.

When discussing Qatar’s gift of a plane to,Trump, Whoopi informed us that she is friends with Presidents and she knows that when they throw a party, she is aware that she can’t bring a gift.

Now if only the Pope can show he has some Jewish ancestry in him like Sunny, she'll be ecstatic. Were any of his European descendants slave traders by any chance ? That would really excite her !

[quote] What didn't you understand her saying ? She was pretty clear to me.

1) what did that have to do with the emoluments clause discussion? 2) we're all "other" because...we're not politicians?

R44 The point she was making was that for those who truly believed Trump was 'one of us' while he was campaigning (he was going to lower the price of eggs and groceries on day one, lest we forget) , take a look at what he's actually doing. He's not 'one of us'. They believed him, they gave him back the White House, he arrived - and showed us who he really is (his latest antic - ignoring the emoluments clause. He's not part of 'we the people' - he's out for himself, and himself only, and the GOP is fine with this. They're not saying boo about this gift he's receiving.

So she wants everyone to wake up and go vote the midterms (which is 18 months away) and vote MAGA out of Congress. MAGA, like the President, is not for 'we the people'

Whoopi asks that all the networks STOP showing the hotel video of Diddy kicking his 'girlfriend' Cassie in the hallway while she scrunched in the fetal position. She warns, 'We've seen enough of this' and we don't need to see it again and again. (The others agreed with her, of course). Apparently, her own bosses at ABC News don't give a shit about what she thinks - they played the video repeatedly on 'World News Tonight' when anchor David Muir was reporting on the story.

Sunny is our eyes and ears in the courtroom, as she's been heading over to the trial each day once 'The View' wraps. I don't think this will sit well with Ana on Friday - I expect her to say she has her friend Cassie staying in her NYC apartment this week, and Ana herself is the designated driver to the hospital, should Cassie go into labor. So you can shove your legal pad up your ass, Sunny !

While introducing Jimmy Fallon, Whoopi got the name of Fallon’s new children’s book wrong as she was holding the book in her hands.

Why did those two women who were guests on the show being interviewed say every sentence out of their mouths in the form of a question ? I had to shut the interview off - it was nerve wracking.

You could see Sunny just waiting to jump on Rahm Emmanuel for not liking the term woke. Too bad he gave a completely reasonable answer. Also, is there a more annoying celebrity than Jameela Jamil?

Whoopi out sick. Again. Joy doesn't seem to care if we're alone or not so no empathetic sign-off today.

Yeah, it's too bad Whoopi wasn't there to tell us if Diddy committed "rape rape," look directly at the camera and exclaim "you don't get to take gifts from Qatar. That's not how this works,", and then welcome "Ron Samuels."

I just listened to Jameela Jamil on today’s podcast and I retract my criticism. In fact, I actually really like her now.

So Ana wants viewers to believe that 'years ago' she was in a New York hotel, and staff members told her -out of hundreds of thousands of people they see in a year - they singled her out and told her 'you wouldn't believe what goes on in Diddy's room when he stays here'. Of all the notables who stayed in this apparently 'high end hotel', and all the 'shenanigans' that went on in each room, these staff members decided to pay close attention to Diddy's room, and tell Ana Navarro (of all people) the next time she stayed at the hotel.

To paraphrase Judge Judy, 'This is what she wants us to believe?'

To quote Judge Judy, 'It's the most ridiculous thing I ever heard.'

[quote]Joy doesn't seem to care if we're alone or not so no empathetic sign-off today.

Whoopi is a black woman.

Joy is a white woman.

They have different VIEWS.

Did Joy and Sunny refuse to share the table with Trumpster Kelsey Grammer?

Appears so R55 and is probably why Whoopi had to come in when she is so hoarse.

r55, Joy knows wack jobs, and she could not be seated next to Mr. Grammer...

He did sound odd.

Why the hell would they make Whoopi carry the show today? The woman could barely speak but I have to say she was a trouper. Very moving interview with Kelsey and Matteo was the perfect balance to offset the sad story of Kelsey's sister.

[quote]Did Joy and Sunny refuse to share the table with Trumpster Kelsey Grammer?

It looked like they didn't have enough time for three hosts to conduct an interview (Whoopi even apologized to Sara for 'stepping over her question') , let alone five. It was a very emotional interview, and he needed enough time to tell the story. Made sense to cut two of them.

Usually, others sit attentively. Joy can be counted on for an I liked it, me too, what do you think Whoopi?

They should have kept Sunny at the table, but I suppose they didn't want a prosecutor's perspective on his sister's murder. It would have been insightful, but it seemed more about his emotional journey rather than an overview of what would happen to someone who raped and murdered a young woman. I think she could have added to the conversation because she has experience dealing with family members of victims but twas not to be.

Sunny may have found out some more info on the perps that wouldn't allow her to spin her daily narrative.

I'm sure many of the defendants she prosecuted over the years were also black, R62.

R63 I'm sure they were. But she wasn't a TV host back then with a daily racial agenda to deliver to viewers, now was she ?

I have yet to hear her defend Diddy so, in this instance, I would have to disagree with your comment.

Friday's show was a pre-recorded snooze (and at times, edited terribly). Too bad it wasn't live, and they talked about Comey's situation which is in the headlines. Instead, they devote the HT to the new book on Biden. The women seemed to be in agreement that the 'anointment' of Harris was a mistake (they should have had a primary), although Sunny disagreed - to the surprise of no one.

[quote]I have yet to hear her defend Diddy so, in this instance, I would have to disagree with your comment.

I don't think you understand Sunny's agenda. So let me ask you: Are there any white men involved in Diddy's trial for her to defend Diddy from ?

Today's episode was a perfect example of why this show has sucked since the election. Sara and Alyssa are having an adult discussion about the issues in the Democratic party and voters' concerns about Biden's age last year and it gets completely derailed by Ana's incessant ass kissing of Joe Biden and Sunny's whataboutisms about Trump. Yes, we all would prefer Biden over Trump, but we seriously can't have a discussion about how badly the Democrats blew it and are continuing to blow it?

The discussion about Democrats should be a discussion on Murdoch/Marketing/Analytics ability to set the agenda.

THEY ARE EATING THE DOGS.

Who is Kamala Harris?

THEY ARE EATING THE DOGS.

R66, I have commented on Sunny's "agenda" many times in these threads. You're just upset because no one bit, and I had the audacity to defend her this time around. A defense which is merited based on facts presented.

Wes Moore just vetoed a bill to study reparations in Maryland. I wonder what Sunny will have to say about that. My guess is nothing since he's a Democrat. Meanwhile if iTim Scott or Byron Donalds did the same, she'd bring it up constantly.

R70, you are one of those, perfect is the enemy of the good, white supremacists. The kind who investigated MLK's girlfriends.

I like Wess Moore. Don't care.

I haven't seen today's show, but I can already guess what happened. Ana talked about how well she knows Joe Biden and what a wonderful and decent man he is and how devastated she is by this news. Whoopi rambled incoherently and then looked directly into the camera and said "get better, Joe!" Alyssa and Sara said that whether or not you voted for him, he deserves respect for his decades of public service and should be treated with compassion during a health crisis. Sunny highlighted his service with the first black President and selection of the first black woman VP and black woman Supreme Court justice. Then they talked about the last episode of Summer House while Whoopi pretended to be asleep.

Sunny said she believes Biden is going to beat this. He's 82, has stage 4 prostate cancer which has metastasized to his bones. Is she for real ?

One of the most ignorant things you can say to an 82 year old with Stage 4 cancer that has spread to the bones is “wishing you a speedy recovery”. SMH.

Sunny also used to say that Affleck and JLo were truly in love and would reunite forever.

[quote]One of the most ignorant things you can say to an 82 year old with Stage 4 cancer that has spread to the bones is “wishing you a speedy recovery”.

Because one of the most informed things you could say is, "I hope you go painlessly".

I would rather be unknowing.

This panel has reached Trump levels of idiocy with the first HT. An entire HT devoted to the Louisiana prison break mainly in defense of these men. Why? (Sunny exempt question)

They highlight the message written on the wall was written incorrectly, Joy says they're not Rhodes scholars to which the highly educated except not, Whoopi admonishes "You never know." I think in this instance WE KNOW. More time spent defending these murderers when Sunny the prosecutor puts on her public defender cap of the downtrodden and begins to give reasons why these convicted murderers were able to escape. Joy asked a question specifically directed to Sunny and Alyssa. I was interested in what they had to say but then Whoopi cut them off to share more of her slowly dying gray matter rationale.

Krist Noem is a plastic imbued and infused imbecile who slaughters innocent animals. Marco Rubio must have a prolapsed anus at this point with all the bending over he has done in the name of trump. It's good to see they both act like this under oath. Easier to nail them to the wall later.

They go after Jennifer Lawrence for saying "I highly recommend having kids if you want to be an actor." Maybe they should have done a tiny bit of research before they went in for the kill. She's at Cannes because her film Die, My Love is in competition. She plays the mother of a newborn who is quickly losing her grip on reality. Side note: She's the leading contender for an Oscar next year. My question is, were they so hard up for a mommy topic they had to go build an entire HT over her comment?

Weird HT choices today but Whoopi pulling out her pocket copy of The Constitution was the highlight for me. I think she ended up using it as a coaster, but you know, baby steps.

Whoopi pulling out her copy of The Constitution was a highlight as was her informing us that she has been a creative since birth.

Gravitas on display.

I loved the look Joy gave Whoopi (a side eye glance and a smirk) when Whoopi corrected her with the answer "You never know" (about the prisoners being Rhodes scholars). Even Joy is tired of her at this point.

I get the Ogre tells The View to cut the political shit

Iger the Ogre

I actually agree with Iger. I used to love the show’s political focus (and fully tuned out during the seasons they shifted away from it) but lately I find the Weekend View much more enjoyable thanks to its lighter tone. Since the election, the show has seemed unable to figure out how to cover the Trump administration without speechifying or just repeating the same points over and over. I’m also really turned off by most of the hosts’ inability to be constructively critical about the Dems. When they brushed aside the books about Biden’s decline with their “we need to forget the past and just focus on the future,” I couldn’t help but roll my eyes since these were the same women who criticized the Republicans for wanting to just move past January 6th to look ahead. Only Alyssa and Sara seem capable of having a nuanced conversation at this point or being able to hold two thoughts in their head at the same time.

^^ Don’t repeat that on the Jimmy Kimmel/Tapper thread. You’ll be eaten alive! 🫣

Whoopi suggested to Hugh that they do Love Letters together. Nothing like putting him on the spot. I'd be there if he teamed up with Ryan.

Has Sunny addressed Wes Moore blocking the reparations bill, which has angered many in the black community? Just curious, since she and the other women were making a hard push for Moore to run for President when he was on the show recently.

You must be one of those perfect is the enemy of good, white supremacist gays, R86. Apparently I am too.

Why did Joy sit out the Jackman interview ? Same assumption as to why she sat out the Kelsey Grammer interview ? Or was there concern over her bringing up his acrimonious divorce he's currently going through ?

Sunny said she doesn't have a problem if her mother or father (divorced since she was a teen) had a younger 'romantic partner' if that's the companionship they desire (this was during the Belichick discussion). That's odd - she had a problem when her son Gabe was dating a woman much older than he. She objected to their 'companionship'. Why the change of heart ?

Because Sunny is a hypocrite. Just look at her stance on abortion, which she claims to oppose due to her Catholic beliefs, and gay rights, which she claims to support in spite of her Catholic beliefs.

R88, it goes back to Jackman refusing to appear on The View to promote Deadpool & Wolverine, and some mishegoss involving DEI. Joy was supposed to have five interviews with Jackman and Ryan Reynolds in which she would have been paid $10 million. Disney promised to pay her the money even though the interviews never happened, and then they reneged on the offer.

I have not watched the film but there was supposed to be a scene in which the characters mocked The View and Joy in particular.

R90, I'll have what you're having.

I'm shocked that when Whoopi pulled out her pocket constitution, Sunny said "the founders were good." Really, the same founders who committed the original sin of allowing slavery? The same founders who wrote what her bestie Elie Mystal calls a "garbage document?"

I find it hard to believe anyone would pay Joy 10 million for her interview skills.

Didn't someone say the Jackman interview was on tape? Maybe Joy was on leave that day.

R92, I thought the same thing. Sunny seems to be loosening up a bit so I'm wondering if she's trying to branch out with outside political/legal pundit gigs, but they find her too polarizing. Whenever her name comes up in online comment sections, the first thing that's mentioned is her obsession with race.

R90 Never heard that before. She was doing these interviews on her own as a 'special' or on the show ? Something doesn't sound right about this. How long ago was this ? Any sources to link ?

Sunny has definitely been a lot, well, sunnier lately. I wonder if she got a stern talking to from a producer or got over the sting of Kamala losing. Maybe there was trouble in paradise with Manny that's abated?

Maybe ABC threatened to replace Sunny with newly-minted law graduate Omarosa!

R95, ignore R90. They're either joking or high. Jackman and Reynolds were on some months ago promoting their film.

I keep reading about the Shakira concert in NJ last week spreading the measles virus. I know Ana was bragging about attending one of her concerts so I'm wondering if this was THE concert. Good luck, Ana.

C&P from Muriel's fave rag: The View host 'out in the cold after she had nerve to scold ABC boss who warned them to stop anti-Trump rants'

Ana Navarro faces being given a very cold shoulder by her co-stars on The View after she had the nerve to challenge her uber-powerful boss' complaint that the show's constant moaning about Donald Trump is boring.

Bob Iger - CEO of ABC parent company Disney - asked the panel show to tone down the politics in recent weeks after finding viewers responded better to frothier showbusiness segments, the Daily Beast reported.

Navarro is then said to have taken it upon herself to push back against Iger - one of the most powerful figures in media - by insisting that viewers enjoy being served a daily dose of resistance-style rants. But the anti-Trump Republican may have made a very dangerous error.

Fox News is now reporting that Navarro's co-hosts actually 'agree' with Iger and that they're happy to change the direction of the show.

The stars are also said to fear that 'ignoring Bob Iger seems like a terrible decision.' Bosses on The View are famously brutal with dumping stars who don't play by the rules or who are disliked by the audience - meaning Navarro could find her role next on the chopping block.

You can read the full article at the DM.

Anna's boss asking for more celebrity froth should be music to her ears. I can't think of a more shameless name-dropper. But how will Whoopi come up with new ways to telegraph her disgust at the softball segments she moderates?

They need to do a Melania Tribute Week.

Bring back Rosie!

I don't buy this report. No one is watching The View for the inane celebrity interviews or the other frivolous shit they do. It's the Hot Topics that generate the buzz and the ratings. If they start backing off a lot and shit gets crazier, viewers are going to take notice, get annoyed and stop watching. It's already obvious when they choose not to cover certain topics/stories. This will just make it worse.

Wasn't Whoopi the one running around the office a few years back screaming about how she was a slave when they tried to change things in her contract?

I find Ana's anti-Trump stance laughable. Gurl, you spent decades helping build the policies and infrastructure that led directly to Trump. If you're so pro-immigration, pro-choice, pro-LGBT, and pro-science, then what the fuck were you doing trying to elect the Bushes and McCain?

[quote]Bob Iger - CEO of ABC parent company Disney - asked the panel show to tone down the politics in recent weeks after finding viewers responded better to frothier showbusiness segments, the Daily Beast reported.

If this were true for daytime TV, then 'The Talk' and 'The Real' would still be on the air. But they're not - and they're not for a reason.

R105, I have noticed an uptick in their celebrity guests over the past few months. Yet during May Sweeps they really didn't bring on the big guns. They had Jackman but that was anti-climactic with the no-show then pre-taped rescheduled appearance.

I've also noticed they don't always lead each show's Hot Topics with Trump. Some days but not all. So maybe they are dialing it back a bit.

Well let’s just say that we weren’t sad when Bill Geddie died.

They are dialing it back because once it was always a Trump opener and recent they started with one of those Reddit conundrums that drive Whoopi crazy.

It was so obvious

THE WEINER IS BACK! Hopefully not on full display during the interview. The FCC frowns on such actions. That is, if we still have an FCC.

Friday, 30 May 2025 Political View with Anthony Weiner (candidate for City Council and former U.S. Rep. (D-N.Y.); Justina Machado (Broadway's "Real Women Have Curves") New

Looks like Snook and Machado will be making last-minute appearances to woo Tony voters before the Tonys are handed out in a couple of weeks. Let's see how often the five hosts tell each actress they are AMAZING in their roles.

OOOOOO-WEEE! I hope 'The View' brings up Lupone's recent 'New Yorker' interview this week. They love Lupone when she visits the show. How will Sunny spin her comments in the interview about Audra MacDonald and 'the loud Black musical' which was playing next door to her production ?

r109, Weiner with the lovely weiner? The man who shamed Huma Abedin?

Is there some shame negotiation going on with ABC/Disney?

Just like Fox, lighten up on the anti Trump shit but go after Democrats?

Sunny is out this week as her son is graduating from Harvard.

Fucking Whoopi always jumping to the defense of the abuser and ever the celebrity apologist extraordinaire. Macron's wife was caught grabbing his face and it didn't look like they were being playful but what would one expect from someone who defended Mel Gibson, Bill Cosby and Michael Vick. Ever since she was cancelled, she thinks she's the arbiter of supposed wrongly accused celebrities.

Ana twisted herself into a pretzel in order to insert a photo of herself and Shakira into a HT on AI. She has a problem. Seriously.

Sunny off for an entire week because her son is graduating from Harvard. If she comes back and goes on about her father telling her she was the first family member to go to college, she's going on mute. Bets on Ana trying to outdo Sunny's photo/video display presentation of her son's graduation by desperately name-dropping a bunch of celebs whom she claims are her besties.

Joy is an old grouch. "Get that AI off my lawn!" Sara is steady as she goes. Alyssa sounded a little insane when she went off on the Afghanistan withdrawal which, by the way was set up by her former boss.

Another Hot Topic about Trump. To sum up: Trump is a self-absorbed dick, and Trump will always be a self-absorbed dick. Happy Memorial Day you SCUM!!!

WAIT A MINUTE...

They're discussing the age difference between Macron and his wife (his wife is 24 years his senior) and they say it's rare for the woman to be older. I guess they never heard of Joan Collins who is married to her husband 30+ years her junior ?

Then they compare when a man is older than his wife, and someone mentions Trump is 24 years older than Melania and we deem it as 'acceptable'. Ana sat their rather quietly. Why didn't she speak up in defense of older man / younger woman ? Her husband is also 24 years older than she - he's 77. Why doesn't she speak up and tell us what it's like to be in a marriage with a great age difference ? We don't have to 'assume' when Exhibit A is right there sitting next to you.

Speaking of marriages, Hugh Jackman was at the table on Thursday, and they didn't dare ask him about the status of his two year separation. Maybe because his wife reportedly blind-sided him and served him with divorce papers in Manhattan the next morning ?

Joan Collins knows it is better to marry a man who knows how to eat pussy no matter his age...

R115, Ana's a gold digger. Her former elderly boyfriend was a billionaire, but she couldn't close the deal. At least last week we got to hear her wax poetic about Al's prostate cancer journey.

As for Jackman he deserves everything coming his way. I read the divorce filing was held up for the past two years because there was no pre-nup in place. When they married, she had been acting for twenty years. She was the star, and he was some no name who had one acting credit. She should get half of everything and if he balks, he's an even bigger douchebag than he's already revealed himself to be.

Ana is good at what she does, whatever it is.

Ana said on today’s podcast she was outraged anyone could possibly think the Bidens would cover up cancer and not get treatment so Joe could continue being president. Really? Because I think that seems like exactly something they would do. And who’s to say he wasn’t getting treatment privately and is lying about the timing now? The pedestal she puts that man on is bordering on Biden Derangement Syndrome.

[quote]Because I think that seems like exactly something they would do.

Because you have been instructed to think that way by the Murdoch/Marketing/Analytics Machine.

The Murdoch Machine is now set to retroactively attack and destroy the Democratic Party.

To give people no choice when Trump defies the Constitution and runs for a third term.

Whoopi didn't see anything wrong at all with Macron's wife not holding hands with him, as they descended the steps from the plane. 'It would've made her look like she needed his help, and she didn't want that.' Nothing wrong at all with the way she behaved, and it didn't mean she was mad at him.

Fair enough.

But did she say the same thing about Melania during Trump's first term, when they were walking towards the plane and Trump tried to hold her hand, and she brushed it away ? Or did she point out what everyone said at the time - she was pissed at him ?

As Judge Judy likes to say on her show - "Whoopi, would you like us to play the tape back ?"

[quote] Because you have been instructed to think that way by the Murdoch/Marketing/Analytics Machine.

No, because I saw 4 years of an obviously feeble man who barely gave press conferences, skipped two Super Bowl interviews, went a year without holding a full cabinet meeting, couldn’t have meetings after 6pm, publicly asked where dead people were, held a press conference to defend his faculties and then mixed up the names of world leaders in that same press conference, couldn’t recognize people he knew, and couldn’t string together a coherent sentence during a debate.

[quote]No, because I saw 4 years of an obviously feeble man who barely gave press conferences

You have been conned by the Murdoch/Marketing/Analytics Machine that government runs like a TV show.

Biden ran the country, fought off Manchin/Sinema, and got legislation passed, like the ARPA and PPP, that saved America.

But for 2 trillion dollars of direct assistance to the post Trump Pandemic economy [I am not responsible], you would never think it was Biden doing all the heavy lifting. Fox learned, after paying $787M in fines for lying FOR Trump, all you have to do is OMIT any good thing about DEMOCRATS.

Kamala who? We really don't know who she is.

Of course you don't. It was by design.

Oh, and the one-sided Fox reporting was the reason for the Fairness Doctrine.

It needs to be brought back.

[quote] You have been conned by the Murdoch/Marketing/Analytics Machine that government runs like a TV show.

Fuck off with your gaslighting bullshit. The fact that legislation got passed doesn't mean the man isn't senile. Legislation also gets passed under Trump and he's totally fucked in the head too.

I’m not unhappy that Sunny is off for the week. Good riddance. But the explanation that she needs the entire week off because her son graduates from Harvard says it all. A week off for a graduation? Oh Sunny.

[quote]The fact that legislation got passed doesn't mean the man isn't senile.

Well, after doing it for 50 years, he made it seem easy, not pathological.

Did Sunny stop covering the Diddy trial? They never mention it anymore.

Sunny’s busy. Her son graduated from Harvard!!!! Didn’t you hear?? There’s a weeklong celebration!!!!

Silverman's appearance was a disaster.

Not funny.

I wasn’t paying full attention but the flashback of Joy Behar introducing Rick Derringer was odd. Did they mention that he was a MAGAt?

I'm surprised they haven't given any time in Hot Topics for the 'American Music Awards' held this past Monday night. And 'Diddy' is apparently 'off the table for conversation' - not even a mention of the star witness giving birth the other day ?

KUDOS to Anthony Weiner ! He kicks off his interview at the table with the question, "Is this where Kamala Harris was sitting when she blew up her campaign ? Is this the spot ? I hope I don't have the same fate. " Joy and Sara gave a light laugh (Joy said, 'Yeah - it was right there, actually'), Alyssa laughed heartily, and Ana just smiled - I guess she doesn't want to catch Sunny's wrath next week.

BTW, Weiner is getting sexier with age. The guy is 60 and looks 15 years younger - not a wrinkle on his face and still has a nice slender body. I'd do him in a heartbeat.

And he gave a great interview. Humorous, very interesting, humble, and came across somewhat honest (as honest as an interviewed politician can be).

R134, he also said Kamala was handed the softest of softball questions then Joy cut him off. It would have been must-see tv if Sunny had been there today. Oh, well.

As for Weiner, he's a scumbag who was hated when he was a member of Congress.

R135 I must've missed when he said that. Sunny must be seething this weekend.

R136, I tried to copy at current time, if it doesn't work his comment starts at 10:32.

R137 Thanks for this. Not sure how I missed it the first time. Sunny's weekend has been ruined.

Good for the Weiner! Will Sunny address it when she comes back? Of course not.

I'd like to know what kind of work Weiner had done to keep him looking so good. He' my age (60) and looks damn good - is it Botox ? Fillers ? No creases, no wrinkles , no crow's feet - and he's been weathered by so much in his life the past ten years. What's his secret ?

Prison can be good for the cheekbones.

So today - May 31 - is the last day of American Asian Pacific Island History month in the USA. Can anyone recall any coverage on it from the women of The View ? I recall one segment about 90 seconds long which they paid tribute to an American Asian woman the first week of May to 'kick off the month' , and Whoopi said they'd be celebrating 'all month'. (They did the same thing in October for Italian American History month).

Now imagine if they reduced 'Black History' month down to one 90 second segment during the month of February. How would that go over ?

AFG is on CNN this morning, on a show called 'Table for Five' - which there are five hosts sharing their viewpoints and talking about 'this week's headlines'. (Wherever did they get that concept from ? It's so unique!)

I must say, she holds her own against the other four (liberals, conservatives, independents) and sates her case clearly.

It must burn Sunny's biscuits that AFG is on CNN weekend shows, getting plenty of camera time and attention while Sunny was fired from the network years ago. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - 'The View' is nothing but a resume filler for AFG. I'd be surprised if she stays with the show beyond one more season.

The discussion on 'Table for Five' turned to Trump's administration putting pressure on the networks to give him more favorable coverage. One of the hosts turned to AFG and said 'You know this for a fact - ABC told you and the other hosts to be kinder to Trump on 'The View' (I'm paraphrasing).

AFG flatly denied this and wanted to set the record straight (she had heard the same rumors that ABC has clamped down on the show).

She said that NO ONE has ever told her, her cohosts, or the producer to 'tone it down' or 'go easier' on Trump and his administration. They are free to speak their minds and say what they want - just like Barbara Walters produced years ago. There is no involvement from the network or the White House on what or how they can cover the President. They all say what they believe, and discuss what they want. (Everyone at the table was surprised to hear this, I think).

R143, CNN viewership is nowhere near the View's. She is a co-host on the number one daytime talk show. A show which always makes the news whether it be pop culture or red meat for the Trumpers. I think she gets much more exposure from The View than she does on the cable/weekend news shows. Unless she books something like her own political talking head type of show with her name above the title, I believe she'll stick around.

R145 I think she will indeed get offered her own show from CNN with her name above the title. I have always felt that is what she was striving for all along. If CNN offers her something, I don't think she'll have to think twice about leaving 'The View' - or to be more precise, leaving her chair next to Sunny. She doesn't deserve the disrespect and tension from Sunny which she goes through every day.

R146, I've only watched one episode of the Weekend View, but watching Sunny and Alyssa interact on the weekend ep vs the weekday shows is like night and day. Maybe they're more in professional/debate mode when they do the regular show's political topics.

On the weekend ep I watched, they let their guard down and seemed to get along quite well when discussing light pop culture topics. Or maybe they were told by Brian to play nice for the lighter weekend topics. Either way it looks genuine. I do believe Sunny even looked at Alyssa occasionally. Can you imagine?

File under weirdest pairings ever. Bill Clinton and James Patterson.

Monday, 2 June 2025 Ralph Macchio (actor, "Karate Kid: Legends") New

Bill Clinton and James Patterson did a recorded (from the other day) interview on CBS Sunday Morning today - I dozed off. Very boring Q&A, and I don't think this one will be better. But hey - they have a 'summer beach read' to sell to all the dad's out there for Father's Day.

Let's see if Andy Cohen talks about Lupone, MacDonald and the upcoming Tonys. I say he does...

I hope they ask Andy why he threw Kathy Griffin under the bus?

I hope they ask Andy why Kathy insisted on destroying her career by taking an obviously tasteless photo, apologizing, then taking back the apology, then playing the victim, and then being surprised when people tried to distance themselves from her?

R151 Why would they ask Andy that ? He's not responsible for her actions or decisions, no matter how ridiculous they are. If anything, he and the women should sit back and laugh how she managed to single-handedly destroy her career with no one's help.

What you want to know, they should've asked Kathy Griiffin that the numerous times she's visited the show in the past few years. But they didn't.

He's responsible for removing her from Bravo.

Whoopi is doing that "Welcome to The View!" "Welcome to The View!" Welcome to The View!" shtick again, even though it's a new studio with a completely different audience set-up. Why is she still on the show? She adds nothing to the discussion. Today she cut in when Alyssa started to speak. I would rather hear what Alyssa has to say instead of endless ramblings peppered with "you know."

Trump Adjacent HT Opening: Joni Ernst is a sociopathic, condescending asshole. You don't treat your constituents in such a manner.

They did an entire segment on Patti Lupone and her huge ego. Sunny was extremely forgiving which makes me think she's had a personality transplant over the past few months, complete with Sunshine of the Spotless Mind race memory removal. Or possibly she finally got a talking to or she's looking to expand her resume, so she has to play nice and appear sane before she can close the deal.

Ralph Macchio looks the same. That will probably be etched into his monument. That and a notation he was a mediocre actor who was able to ride the same role for his entire career. Makes Stallone's Rocky look like a feeble attempt with only six films.

VYD: Sara solo so it was probably taped last week. I suppose that's why Whoopi did the deja vu bit multiple times last week. Buy some new material, Whoopi or just retire, preferably the latter.

I believe the VYD segments are taped *after* the live show while the pre-taped interviews (which is when Whoopi does her "ya'll look so familiar" schtick) are taped *before* the live show.

Whoopi kicked off June as 'Gay Pride Month' and promised everyone the show will be celebrating gay pride all month long. Celebrate exactly how, Whoopi ? Will they highlight gay men and women who have had an impact on our culture, society and politics - like they do for Black History Month on a daily basis in February? Are they going to promote gay owned businesses or rainbow merchandise for their daily 'View Your Deal' segments, as they did in February for BHM ? Will Adam Glassman be promoting Oprah's favorite gay businesses and wear rainbow themed clothing while doing so ?

Or are they going to do a 60 second segment one day this week and forget about Gay Pride Month like they did with Asian American And Pacific Islander Heritage Month last month ? Or no segment at all, and just a fifteen second mention like they celebrated Italian American History month last October ?

Let's check back with Whoopi on June 30 and see how they celebrated 'all month long'.

Whoopi said very little - just read off the camera to introduce the Lupone / MacDonald drama. Yet, the look on her face (and tone of her voice) suggested she's not at all on Lupone's side. I would have liked to hear her view on the situation. Even better - I'd love to hear Joy Behar's opinion. Like Lupone, she's another brassy Sicilian.

As the Diddy trial continues to heat up with witness after witness testifying against him, and the news stations covering this each afternoon, they don't feel it would be worthwhile to cover this in Hot Topics ?

I don't think they use the earpieces anymore. They make a lot of mistakes which used to be corrected in real time. Now they just move on to the next topic and there are no corrections. There have been so many over the past two days. Ridiculous. They also need to sit their asses down and do research or at least be briefed before they discuss on-air topics. Something's lacking with the prep lately.

Whoopi with the TACO D bullshit. His name is already in the acronym you fucking idiot, so you don't have to add the D. Now she's doing her Valley Girl accent. Whoopi doesn't realize she left the cool cat phase and has now moved into crazy old aunt phase. The laughs from the co-hosts over her Valley Girl bullshit are awkward at best.

Did Sunny mention anything about her son's graduation? She usually shows photos and video of such occasions. Something's up with her.

I don't give a fuck about the Beckhams family squabbles. All I know is Brooklyn's wife is the daughter of Nelson Peltz. The asshole who tried to take control of P&G and instead thanked the stock. POS.

Cohen needs to clear his fucking throat and stop yelling when he speaks. Two segments with this non-entity. The only entertaining part was the AI-generated toddler video. Bonus: They asked him about PRIDE Month.

Tonys are coming up so show us your wares. Broadway actress who is black and The View has to let everyone know she is black. I do believe she is the first black actress to be black according to the ladies of The View.

Whoopi flogs that poor dead horse one woman show yet again with a Broadway revival/reading with the black actress who is black. This actress reminds me of Jasmine Guy who also happens to be black.

Political commercials abound. Please stop with the midget candidates constantly telling us they'll take care of that schmuck Trump. You look and sound like something out of the Wizard of Oz.

Jardience chubettes dancing and playing baseball. Choreography is key when dealing with Type II Diabetes and obesity.

Would someone please let Whoopi know I would rather be "in this alone." Thanks.

I think that ABC/Disney quietly moved The View back to the entertainment division and out of News. Just like Fox. Entertainments. So much more difficult to sue.

Will Whoopi's monologues hold up now? It seems an odd choice for the new Lincoln Center to produce for her first season. I suspect they're very dated.

I'm done with Whoopi's "Valley Girl" character she keeps on unpacking during Hot Topics. I wish she'd dust off 'Fontaine' and let him do the talking - especially when discussing Diddy.

Shout out to us RIers for RHORI. However, it's an open secret that so far, none of the 'wives' are native RI, most have either married into a RI family or moved here this winter from NY and NJ. So much for authenticity. And by Cohen's description, it sounds like it's going to be stereotypical Italian families to represent the state, I guess because there couldn't find Latino housewives, Black housewives, or WASP housewives ? Joy said she would never want to do a 'Housewives' series because she wont fight with other women - only with men in authority. I hope Meghan McCain and Elisabeth Hasslebeck heard that.

Andy Cohen looks ten years older than his 57 years, Alcohol will do that to you.

Sunny was on the podcast today discussing the Diddy trial. Wonder why that's been back burnered during Hot Topics.

I think Sunny's part of some Hulu series that does recaps of the trial. They plugged it once on the show. But it is weird that they never mention it anymore during HT.

The View's Sunny Hostin is still serving legal eagle vibes as she takes up permanent perch inside Sean "Diddy" Combs' courtroom, the TV personality revealed on the latest episode of the Behind the Table podcast.

The 56-year-old former federal prosecutor, who has sat in on Combs' proceedings since the rapper's high-profile sex trafficking trial began on May 5 in New York City, recalled a jarring moment she shared with Combs as the day unfolded.

"He’s very engaged," Hostin observed of Combs' behavior in the room, after he was accused of interstate transportation for purposes of prostitution, coercion and enticement to engage in prostitution, and more (the entertainer has pleaded not guilty to the charges brought against him following his September arrest in Manhattan).

"I know him," Hostin added. "He was staring at me one day, and I’m thinking, oh my goodness. I spoke to his mother very briefly in the bathroom. I’m watching the jurors because they’re taking this in."

Hostin, also a lawyer who worked her way through the legal circuit after first serving as a law clerk in Maryland, admitted that she feels "there are dream teams on both sides" of the case, including Combs' legal team fronted by "crackerjack defense attorneys" like Marc Agnifilo and Teny Geragos.

"Teny is Mark Geragos' daughter, my friend and famed attorney. Marc Agnifilo is not as well known as Mark Geragos, but his wife, Karen, is representing Luigi [Mangione]," Hostin said. "You’ve got powerhouse folks in there. It’s some of the best lawyering I’ve seen."

Hostin admitted that, as a result of that legal prowess, she thinks "it could go either way, because it’s such an odd case for people to get their minds around."

Whoopi has been a bit too giddy lately. Her contract was up at the end of this season so I'm assuming she re-signed. She literally brings nothing to the table unless it's an ugly holiday sweater or some other garbage she's promoting.

I assume they pre-taped tomorrow's show. This Musk/Trump bitchfest is Hot Topics gold. They need to get their asses back to the table five days a week and do it live.

Clinton/Patterson did not keep me engaged. I think they had four segments. Three segments too many.

Poor Clinton looked like he aged five years by the time the interview segments were over.

It's such a scam to claim that any of those Patterson collaborations are written by him or the celebrity.

Whoopi, Joy and Sunny are all up for contract renewals. There's no way they're giving Whoopi and Joy the standard four-year contract. Whoopi and Joy are like old career politicians who refuse to give up their seats of power. Time to retire, grannies.

r168, Time to retire, grannies? You are beyond stupid.

Whoopi is the queen of Black entertainment and black actors.

Joy is not going anywhere unless she wans to go. Plus, it's an easy gig.

Amy Farah Fowler is set into the McCain seat.

I have a feeling that Sara has been showing signs of fatigue and may pull the, "I want to spend more time with my Iowa family", bullshit.

Give it a rest, R169. Whoopi is a washed-up has-been who was damn lucky Barbara took pity on her and gave her a much-needed job. Are you the same moron who insisted Whoopi would get Sister Act III produced? How's that working out for her?

WHOOPI IS A BURNOUT. LIKE I'M MUCH MORE SUITED HAVING A CANNABIS BUSINESS THAN I AM MODERATING A SHOW IN WHICH I MAY ACTUALLY HAVE TO USE WHAT'S LEFT OF MY FUNCTIONING GRAY MATTER, BURNOUT.

JOY IS OLD. LIKE GET OFF MY LAWN, OLD.

SUNNY IS NUTS. I WEAR MAKEUP TO BED SO MY HUSBAND WON'T SEE MY ACTUAL FACE, NUTS.

This show needs a shakeup aka a new view. I can recite exactly how they're going to respond before they respond. Sara and Alyssa are the only ones who don't always stick to the script. I think there are changes afoot for next season. If not, I won't be tuning in on a daily basis because it's just too damn rote. Same old, same old every damn day.

Joy is slipping. Notice how she constantly tries to bring Trump into everything with a joke that falls flat. She can’t remember names. She’s not on her A game anymore.

I said a few months ago, I have a feeling Joy will be leaving. She's not herself - starting with her walk to the chair every morning. She seems wobbly, and usually Sara has take her by the arm to help her to the chair (the other day it was Whoopi who helped her) - though the cameras quickly cut away from Joy while she's having difficulty. Also, she is indeed slipping in her conversations (not remembering names, telling old tired jokes, etc.). She'll be 83 in October - I have a feeling she may stay with the show through December, and not come back for the second half of next season.

I can't imagine Whoopi leaving at this point. She has a nice income from the show, the ratings are at the top of their game, and she seems to do her 'own thing' and no one cares. She turns 70 in November - where else can she get a gig like this ?

As for Sunny, I believe her continuance is dependent on what's happening with her husband and his 'cheating Medicare' legal situation. No way does she want to sit there every day with a smile on her face while her husband is being dragged through the mud in the local media. We shall see.

Did anyone notice that when the delightful and refreshing actress Kara Young sat for her interview the other day, she didn't kiss Whoopi's ass ? I think she's the only black actor under 50 who has sat at the table and didn't give Whoopi her proper ass kissing. I mean, she didn't give WG credit for any of her success, for her start in show biz, for being an 'inspiration', for opening the door, for shattering the ceiling, etc. - which made her refreshing and delightful.

I'm certain that was her first and last time on the show.

Not a chance. Kara will "be" Whoopi come fall when she's part of the Whoopi Monologues. Goldberg will be shilling for that show day after day and probably have the entire ensemble on, one by one if not together.

Whoopi Monologues doesn't debut until Fall of 2026 and a lot can change by then (the cast, the production, the premiere date - even whether it happens or not).

Now that her son has graduated from Harvard, Sunny had to reiterate HE GOT IN ON HIS OWN! It was his near-perfect SAT scores and his 4.0 GPA which got him in, certainly not her celebrity or wealth. Got it ? (She didn't mention if he was a DEI admission, though).

Those things are all evidence of white privilege.

R177, no it's not. Asian kids who come from immigrant parents do just as well (better, actually) than white kids when it comes to test scores. There was a major lawsuit brought by Asian applicants who were denied admission to Harvard because Harvard felt they were overrepresented. You really need to stop with the white privilege bullshit. That's Sunny's forte.

[quote]There was a major lawsuit brought by Asian applicants who were denied admission to Harvard because Harvard felt they were overrepresented.

It was a major lawsuit brought by White Supremacist lawyers to destroy Affirmative Action.

It is why DEI means Minority. It calls for the bleaching of all sectors of American business, including universities.

Asian Americans are not on the preferred list either

So we just completed week one of the 'Month Long Celebration of Gay Pride' on 'The View' (as Whoopi promised us on Monday morning). So what did we celebrate with them this week and what did we learn ?

Which gay actor, actress, business owner, author, teacher, politician, chef, etc. did they spotlight this week, telling us their history, and encouraging viewers to learn more about 'this amazing person' on their website by scanning the QR code at the bottom of our screen (as they did in February with Black History Month) ?

Nobody. So much for a 'celebration' of Gay Pride.

R179, what part of the term Asian American is not considered a minority term? They don't have a leg up like the whites supposedly do. The argument with black students who perform abysmally on tests is the tests are targeted to "white culture. If so, then how do these Asian kids who have immigrant parents perform so well? The bottom line is the Ivies give preference to those who perform the worst. If it were true DEI, they would have included Asian Americans, but they don't because they gained admission by having excellent test scores. It doesn't matter who brought the suit, the facts remain. Lastly, most colleges no longer require SAT scores to gain entrance. What does that tell you.

R181, they had Andy Cohen on and asked him about the political climate in relation to gays and T.

Andy Cohen ? That's the best they could do for 'gay pride' this week ? Funny, I don't recall them scraping the bottom of the barrel to find a Black guest during the month of February. I hope going forward they can do better.

[quote]Lastly, most colleges no longer require SAT scores to gain entrance. What does that tell you.

That Sunny needs to stop bragging her son had a near perfect SAT score because colleges don't give a shit ? She should admit that she handed a nice chunk of change over to the admissions department, because that's the only way he truly got in, and what really matters to the Ivies ?

I give Sunny credit for raising two kids (although the daughter sounds like a piece of work) and instilling in them the importance of academic excellence. Her parents made her education a top priority. I'm sure she knows where she'd be in life without her private school education laying the foundation for future opportunities. Opportunities she never would have had if she had remained in the Bronx public school system.

R183, I agree. When it was Black History Month, Whoopi made sure to announce these segments were more important than ever because of the current administration's erasure of DEI. Yet I've noticed with Pride Month, those small segments usually reserved for this topic, they've instead filled with promotional product segments. Let's see if they step up next week and do something other than the typical lip service by promising more to come. More to come? There hasn't been anything yet.

Interesting line-up this week except for Sherri because how many times can you hear someone tell you the world is flat. I guess Bob the Drag Queen is the Pride Month token for this week.

Monday 9 June Former co-host Sherri Shepherd.

Tuesday 10 June The cast of "And Just Like That..." Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis, Nicole Ari Parker and Sarita Choudhury.

Wednesday 11 June Actor Colman Domingo.

Thursday 12 June How to Train Your Dragon actor Gerard Butler; Bob the Drag Queen, author of "Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert: A Novel."

Friday 13 June Actress Carrie Coon.

[quote]I'm sure she knows where she'd be in life without her private school education laying the foundation for future opportunities. Opportunities she never would have had if she had remained in the Bronx public school system.

One of the most ridiculous responses every posted on DL. You have no idea how her life would've turned out had she remained in the Bronx public school system. None at all (and neither does she). Success in life is formed by many different experiences and opportunities; not just where one went to high school.

R187, unless you've read her memoir as I have, you're the one who hasn't a clue. Her parents moved out of the Bronx away from her relatives (who weren't the most motivated people in the world) to an apartment in Stuyvesant in order for her to attend private school. There is no way in hell she would have had the life she has without that move (both physically and mentally.)

Some stats which also incorporate Bronx High School of Science which is ranked within the top 1% of all public schools in NYC. So, including this school inflates the score: In New York Public schools in Bronx, NY have an average math proficiency score of 32% and a reading proficiency score of 40%. Overall, schools in Bronx have an average ranking of 3/10, which is in the bottom 50% of New York public schools.

Well, I guess even Ana won’t be allowed to defend Terry Moran’s “suspension” from ABC News for tweeting the truth about the genuinely evil Stephen Miller. She should actually quit in protest but of course that would never happen. Would it?

So I guess on Tuesday I'll flip over to Judge Joe Brown after Hot Topics.

R188 :

Once again, I shall say (since you missed it the first time) : "Success in life is formed by many different experiences and opportunities; not just where one went to high school."

R191, I was talking about career/financial success. Unless you attended both private and public schools as I did, please stop. The difference between public and private is like night and day. Your inspirational bullshit may play in Bumfuck, but in the real world your assertion is laughable. Do people become successful without a good education? Yes, they do, but to say Sunny, specifically, (because that's who we're discussing here,) would have had as many opportunities with a Bronx public school education as she did with a private school education is absolutely ridiculous.

Can't wait to see Whoopi and Sunny choke out a 'congratulations' to Nicole S for her win over Audra.

R192 = Sunny's mother.

When that's all you've got, R194. Perhaps you should debate someone who attended a public school in the Bronx. More of a level playing field.

R195 You need to be telling your psychiatrist all this. This thread isn't the time nor place for you to unload your lifetime of regrets and unhappiness. Really - who cares where you went to high school ? Apparently, only you.

R196, you're the same OCD poster who wouldn't let go of the Joy is an atheist bullshit. In the future I would appreciate it if you did not respond to my posts. You seem to revel in antagonizing people but that's not really my thing so, just put me on ignore and we'll leave it at that.

R197 Yes, I am. I guess I live in your head rent-free. Something else you need to tell a good psychiatrist.

I'm glad Sara was persistent in her point about immigration and didn't get derailed by the other hosts, particularly Sunny, trying to talk over her. Sunny also seems to not understand that people don't care if being undocumented is a civl offense and not a criminal offense, they still see it as breaking the law.

[quote]people don't care if being undocumented is a civl offense and not a criminal offense, they still see it as breaking the law.

And that is the only thing Republicans have done for immigration since the Reagan Amnesty.

Prevent the browns from becoming citizens.

[quote]Can't wait to see Whoopi and Sunny choke out a 'congratulations' to Nicole S for her win over Audra.

And I was right ! They saved their Tony coverage for the last 30 seconds of the show and mentioned Nicole as one of the winners. Then gave more time to Sunny letting us know she was the grand marshall for the Puerto Rican parade.

If Audra had won, would they have done the same thing ? I doubt it.

Has The View addressed the whole situation with Terry Moran? Or are they going to pretend it didn't happen, like when their bosses at Disney were busted for contributing to anti-gay politicians?

What happened to "Silence is complicity" Sunny?

And nice having Sherri on during Pride Month, with her bigoted gay hating ass.

Did anyone else notice when the women from 'And Just Like That' came out to the stage and greet the hosts, everyone stood up to embrace them, except Joy ? She was sitting in front on the 'lower director chair' (the higher chairs were behind her and Whoopi) and never stood up. It confirms (to me) what I've been saying as I see her needing help walking to her chair nearly every day at the table - she's having mobility issues. It makes me wonder whether she returns in September.

As a side note, I really wish Sara, Ana, Joy and Alyssa would respond to Sunny when she's talking as Sunny responds to them when they're talking.

Whenever one of those four women are speaking on a topic, Sunny never, ever turns to look at them. She drops her head and either stares at her index cards or at the table, or she holds her head up and stares straight ahead to the audience - showing complete disinterest in what they're saying. It's so dismissive. Yet these ladies are respectful to her, and look right at her when it's her time to speak. The only time she looks anyone in the eye when they're talking is Whoopi.

Joy’s never been a warm and fuzzy huggy kissy type gal, though.

It looked to me like they were giving each other a slight embrace and an 'air kiss' just like guests do when they join the table - they hunch down, give a hug and an 'air kiss'. She's fine with that. Or, she could've stood up and stretched her arm out to let them know she preferred a handshake.

Sherri also took a lot of time complaining that her son's wish for privacy is hurting her income. Ugh.

I’m so fucking sick of Ana blathering on about the plight of Latinos under Trump. She spent decades supporting the obviously racist Republican Party and the community she’s outraged on behalf of supported Trump even more during the last election—despite him making it perfectly fucking clear what he planned to do. So she can take her outrage and shove it.

FWIW a friend of mine also said he met Ana backstage at The View and she was a complete bitch.

So that makes you cunt adjacent, r208 /209?

I think your statement is the definition of anecdotal.

It is a nice touch for MAGA to attack ex-republicans.

But wee see you.

[quote]I’m so fucking sick of Ana blathering on about the plight of Latinos under Trump.

Agree - she's preaching to the choir by doing this on 'The View'. She should be blathering to the Latinos who voted for Trump. There's plenty out there for her to preach to.

Gerard Butler has aged terribly (IMO). It was obvious when they played clips from 20 years ago, as a guest on 'The View' when he was in his mid-30s. He was so sexy then.

I’m only count adjacent because I post on the same message board as you, R210.

R213, the pain, oh, the pain.

If it’s not a rerun Ana will have a field day with the Senator Padillla situation.

As she should and she should shit on all the Latinos who voted for Trump.

What a bunch of come mierdas.

The cow is still a Republican, so if she wants to point her fat fingers, point them at herself.

If she blames Latin voters I will applaud her.

If she blames Latin voters, Sunny will jump in to blame white women.

Carrie Coon is BRILLIANT!

That is one smart woman.

And she didn't attribute her success to Whoopi!

No, but Sunny deemed her last name "problematic."

r222, it's not like she is named Carrie Burrhead.

Oh great - Sara pulled the 'You're getting Emmy buzz' to Carrie Coon about her role in 'The White Lotus' which just ruined her chances. Whenever that nitwit mentions 'I'm hearing {Award} buzz, it never happens.

JUNETEENTH ALERT: How much merchandise can they shoehorn into an hour this year? I'm wondering if they'll have another show full of pimping products. Going by the line-up it doesn't look that way but never underestimate The View's ability to use a 30 second segment to sell something.

Friday, 20 June 2025 Mario Cantone (actor, "And Just Like That…"); Jackie Jesko (director, "Barbara Walters Tell Me Everything")

Mario Cantone is making a return to THE VIEW ? And Joy will be hosting, not Whoopi - so it must've been Whoopi he had the blow-up with backstage years ago, which is why he's hardly ever invited back. (I wrote about this in another thread).

Let's see how many times Whoopi introduces each guest by using 'Please welcome the amazing...'

Well, Mario isn't exactly the white Billy Porter...

I love Mario but I had no idea of this tea r226. I wonder what the beef was about.

R228 Not sure. It was on the 'tabloid sites' at the time but died down after a few days. I'm glad, in a way. It has kept him away from the show for the past four or five seasons (which isn't a bad thing - they booked him way too much).

I remember it was also reported that Barbara Walters couldn't stomach him, but because her friend Behar kept pushing for him to appear on the show, she allowed it. (I think I read that in that book 'Ladies Who Punch'). However you could see the disdain on Walters' face whenever he was on the show - and I don't think he liked her, either.

Sunny was on today’s podcast talking about the Diddy trial. She said she’s dying to talk about it on the show but the hosts pick the topics and the others aren’t interested. I imagine it’s because Whoopi and Joy are too old, Alyssa and Sara are too white, and Ana is jealous that Sunny is in the room with celebrities and she’s not.

I assumed she stopped talking about it because Disney/ABC wanted viewers to pay for HULU and listen her take exclusively on there.

If anyone is shooting it down, it's Whoopi.

Think back to eleven years ago (2014-15) when Rosie rejoined the show and wanted to talk about Bill Cosby, and the women coming out of the woodwork accusing him of sexual misconduct. Whoopi didn't want to talk about it, shutting it down and saying they would discuss it after 'he had his day in court', and 'innocent until proven guilty'. Once Rosie left the show, she told all - how Whoopi controlled the 'hot topics' and what could / couldn't be discussed on the show. It was not a 'group decision' from all the hosts.

Well Whoopi doesn’t have total control over Hot Topics how frequently she puts on her unfunny valley girl voice or stares off into space when they discuss something she doesn’t care about.

Come on, Brian. I know Whoopi has had issues with her sight, but she can't even read the damn teleprompter for a basic guest intro and she admits to as much. Besides a high Q rating what exactly does she bring to this show? Meanwhile, I can list a host of negatives which make her unfit to sit in that moderator's seat. And I'm so damn tired of her preaching to us after every topic. Or if she considers a topic beneath her she just sits there like a spoiled brat in a time-out.

If they want to keep her around, they need to move someone like Sara over to the moderator position, but Whoopi will never play second fiddle to anyone. So again, why is she still there? Her contract is up for renewal, I wonder if they're stupid enough to re-sign her.

[quote]Besides a high Q rating what exactly does she bring to this show?

That's all they care about. Once the 'Q' rating starts to fall, that's when they look for a replacement. Just ask Debbie, Star, Elisabeth and Megan. Whoopi's job is fine - unless she wants to leave.

[quote] Well Whoopi doesn’t have total control over Hot Topics

If that were true, Rosie wouldn't have left after five months. Ask Rosie how much control Whoopi has on what's discussed in 'Hot Topics'.

She loves when they discuss 'nonsense' during HT. She can make her 'silly faces' to the audience, she can pretend she's sleeping, she can do her 'Valley Girl' impression - and get laughs from all of these. But she WON'T allow an in-depth discussion on a black, male celebrity in any kind of embarrassing situation or legal trouble.

They will all die with a lower Q than Miss Whoop.

I liked Ahnold until he started rambling about how he came here as a legal entrant.

It seems he never had a president change his classification from legal to illegal.

Yes, R237, but they will all die with a higher IQ than Whoopi. She seriously detracts from the show and it's getting worse. Her ego is so out of control because pussy Brian refuses to rein her in. You would think she might have been humbled by her Holocaust fuck up, but nope, she stills knows best about everything, or so she thinks.

[quote] But she WON'T allow an in-depth discussion on a black, male celebrity in any kind of embarrassing situation or legal trouble.

That probably explains why days after ugly ass SNL’s Michael Che shared those horrendous jokes about Gymnast Simone Biles’ sexual assault, he appeared on The View and no questions were asked of him about that. Considering these are all female co-hosts, I thought that was very irresponsible on their part. If Whoopi was responsible for that, that’s FUCKED UP!

[quote] She seriously detracts from the show and it's getting worse.

You mean you don’t enjoy her second person rants? I’m sure the Minnesota shooter was glued to the screen as she carried as if she was speaking to him personally.

No word to Arnold about his bastard child with his housekeeper? I'lll bet they tore him a new one when that was first revealed.

Sarah as moderator? Bo. I'll be Miss Know-it-all is hell on wheels backstage.

I laughed at Sunny saying "Marxism is advocating for a classless communist society. No Democrat is advocating for that." No, but Sunny herself has spent the last 9 years advocating for that.

Oh, look. Sunny is siding with Iran over Israel. I guess she's not part Jewish today. I bet if Iran was at war with Nigeria she'd be on the first flight to Lagos to show her support.

And now Whoopi and Sunny are declaring that being black in America in 2025 is the same as living in Iran. I guess tanking Kamala's campaign wasn't enough--now they want to tank the rest of the Democrats too.

And before she gets hate mail, Sunny declares "I am not an anti-semite." I guess she got cut off before delcaring "some of my best friends are Jewish. I even have a Jewish accountant!"

Whoopi there are other people in the worId who have it worse than black Americans. She's nothing but a myopic close-minded idiot. Same ignorant stance as with the Holocaust. She never learns from her mistakes. Never.

She still can't enunciate a basic word to save her life. Another bad accent is introduced. I wish a producer would offer her a role in an on-location film so she can go far, far away from The View.

I muted Matenopoulos because I'm not up for the bubbly fake persona crap, but it was fun to watch Joy get pissed when Debbie hugged her. Of course, when Damson Idris kissed her, she smiled. She's such a ridiculous ass-kissing liberal.

Idris was a fun guest yet seems a bit too enamored with Brad Pitt. Gay or just shilling the hell out of a film?

And Whoopi just had. to make another fart remark.

Wow, well, it took a few days but Whoopi and Sunny totally exposed their lack of knowledge about the Israel/Iran conflict today. Whoopi veered the discussion toward American Black victimhood which was downright ludicrous and beyond condescending. And Sunny kept calling the attacks “illegal,” totally distegarding the reason why the attacks have been necessary. Sara and Alyssa tried pushing back, at least, whike Joy was being her typically ignorant self. I wish Ana was on today, instead.

Sunny was correct in stating being anti-Netanyahu is not being antisemitic.

It was weird in the opener, where the announcer asked if Senator Padilla and the NY Comptroller were engaged in POLITICAL THEATER? Totally normalizing the loss of Due Process and the Rule of Law.

Wow, the ABC info creep is becoming evil.

Every time they start to have a good discussion that slightly goes off the rails (i.e. entertaining television), they cut to an ad break and change the subject when they return.

R250, Sunny showed her pro-Palestine stripes early on in the conflict when Netanyahu and the IDF were doing nothing, but retaliation strikes. Th View even went so far as to have on one of three young Palestinian students who were attacked in Mass. (I believe) by a disgruntled American. She was all in from day one so she can shut up with her "not antisemitic just anti-Netanyahu" bullshit. Plus, was the Jewish dude she always brings up as her grandfather a blood relative or one of her grandmother's husbands? she's as bad as the "some of my best friends are black" types.

Yes R251, Whoopi always says we'll continue this discussion when we come back yet they never do.

Any yet they had Ahnold for three segments?

Bleeech.

[quote] It was weird in the opener, where the announcer asked if Senator Padilla and the NY Comptroller were engaged in POLITICAL THEATER?

I fucking hate that opening announcer with the way she both sides everything.

[quote] Sunny was correct in stating being anti-Netanyahu is not being antisemitic.

She was indeed.

Now, if she can only apply that belief when someone prefers Jamie Lee Curtis' performance over Angela Bassett's, or Taylor Swift over Beyonce, or (the list is endless) is not being racist. If only...

Alyssa was having way too much fun watching everyone disagree with Sunny. She stirred the shit and everyone joined in. In one quick camera shot, I saw her try to control herself from smiling when Joy was putting Sunny in her place.

Whoopi skates again. I find it rather ironic that someone who constantly brings up inequality and black injustices on an almost daily basis is ALWAYS given preference when she fucks up. ALWAYS.

Today's show was a pleasant surprise. Last year's Juneteenth celebrations were a non-stop VYD under the guise of celebrity guests.

They had a View panel the other day (minus Whoopi of course). Sunny's now saying she was shocked that Harris answered her infamous question the way she did, and she tried to get Harris to separate herself from Biden.

After the election, she was going around saying that she liked Harris "Ride or die" answer and that Harris ran a flawless campaign? What changed?

Let's see....gay pride...Juneteenth...and they combined the two to discuss what's going on with Tyler Perry.

Just kidding - they aren't going to touch it with Trump's new 100' flag pole.

In all fairness, I believe today and tomorrow's show were both recorded earlier this week.

[quote] Sunny's now saying she was shocked that Harris answered her infamous question the way she did

Worse, she said she expected her to say she’d be different because she’s a black woman. Which is also an awful answer.

Hayley McNinny on Fox News: “Whoopi needs to be educated”

Mario Cantone is exhausting.

And to think I wanted to be a Mario Cantone when I was growing up.

So conflicted.

He is a Fag Hag's Fag.

Guest Jackie Jesko is the film director / producer / journalist who is responsible for the new Barbara Walters documentary. Seems like she really fucked up by not interviewing Joy Behar for the documentary, as Behar kept offering answers to questions that Jesko couldn't answer during her interview.

Ana inquired about her relationship with Roy Cone back in the 70s, and whether there was any truth to the rumors he wanted to marry her. Jesko replies, 'Well, no one really knows because everyone is dead.' Behar pipes up, and says, 'She told me that at lunch, so I'm confirming it.' Embarrassed Jesko replied, 'Did she ?' Behar then had to interject her knowledge as to why Barbara had a 'rocky relationship' with her adopted daughter when Jesko couldn't respond to Sunny's question about that.

So bottom line - Jesko really didn't do any thorough research into Walters on this documentary. Maybe Behar should have been hired to do the research ?

Do they go into Baba's love of black cock?

Joy appears in the documentary.

R266 Jesko must've asked the wrong questions with her. I have a feeling she focused her questions about 'The View' and not on the fact that Joy was a confidante of Walters - otherwise she would've learned more,

Why didn't Jesko ask Joy how she felt when Barbara had her fired so she could be the last original host of The View to leave?

Kathy Griffin revealed in a new video that she turned down a $1.4 million offer to join The View, in the mid-2000s. The comedian said her decision upset co-creator Barbara Walters.

The mid-2000s is when Meredith and Star both left at the end of the 2005-06 season. Walters had already lined up Rosie to be moderator and take Meredith's spot. Star's chair was never permanently filled (but Sherri Shepherd filled in a lot that season, and got the chair the following season). I'm wondering if that was the chair they offered her - Star's chair ? I'm curious how she and Rosie would've gotten along every day, as well as she and Joy. The three of them would've been competing for 'laughs' and trying to outdo each other with 'jokes'. I sense there would have been quite a bit of friction among them.

r269, and in the same video Griffin stated she was making $10M a year on the road.

What surprised griffin was that Barbara's offer was take-it or leave-it. No negotiation.

I think Baba wanted her to turn the offer down. HOW DARE SHE!

R269 Here's what I don't understand...

"Eventually I said to my agent, 'Tell them, if they're going to offer me a permanent chair, please tell them to just offer me the chair or not.' I keep flying out there, they're trying out new hosts so much, I'm like, I'm done auditioning. Did I get the job or not?" Griffin remembered.

So KG was done with 'auditioning' for the show (she filled in a number of times the earlier seasons) and asked her team to get an offer for her. Fair enough.

But then she said she had to turn it down because she didn't want to relocate her parents from LA to NYC, it would interfere with her comedy tour, as well as filming her TV show. So why didn't she tell her team to just pull her out of consideration knowing damn well she could never take the job in the first place ? Why pretend to be interested and wanting the job when you already knew three major obstacles would block it ?

It doesn't make sense.

r273, you are not in show business.

R274 Very true. And...?

Given Kathy’s raging narcissism and penchant for bullshit, I don’t even believe this story. You don’t think she’d have been shouting this from the rooftops for years?

R276 True. Which is why I have my doubts, as well. Something is just not making sense. Why would she 'break her silence' 20 years after ?

I suppose they'll also have their fair share of political analysts and news correspondents joining them to discuss the bomb drop on Iran and other breaking news.

Ahhhh - sexy actor Anthony Ramos of 'Hamilton' fame. The 33 year old broke his silence recently, saying Madonna disrespected the cast of 'Hamilton' when she came to see the show early in its run. Apparently, she was seated near the front and kept her head down, scrolling through an IPad and distracting him and the cast on stage.

“I was like, ‘Damn, shorty,'” he continued. “I’m like, ‘If you not enjoying it that much, you know the door’s right there. You ain’t got to stay here.’”

Later, the cast agreed to deny her access to the backstage to meet the cast (Madonna's rep said it wasn't true, but cast members said it was).

Ramos is beautiful when he's shirtless.

Yay! Whoopi is in Italy accepting an award of some sort, so Joy is sitting in as moderator. Jonathon Karl at the table to discuss Iran. Joy made a little comment about Karl's presence Thank God" which may have been a reference to Terry Moran's termination.

Someone needs to buy Sunny a Netanyahu dart board so she can take out her aggressions on the board.

Jay Pharoah: A Cautionary Tale. He is here to show us how a career nosedives when you badmouth the people in charge. Game show host in one step above infomercial host which is one step above homeless.

Sunni Houth-ton is really showing her stripes. She despises Israel enough that she sides with Iran. But don't dare call her anti-semitic!

It was nearly 100 degrees in Manhattan today. Who had the idea to dress Ana in eggplant-purple leather at the table while dressing the others in summery clothes ? Dressing Ana in winter clothes was a cruel joke.

[quote] Jay Pharoah: A Cautionary Tale. He is here to show us how a career nosedives when you badmouth the people in charge.

What did he do?

Interesting timing re Whoopi’s absence. So soon after her remarks on Wednesday put her in a bit of hot water.Interesting.
