Had she admitted before she was fired by ABC? That was news to me.

Lindsey really makes the most of her allotted time doesn’t she?

Yes! Which lead to a segment where Paula did standup I believe? I cringe a little when the moderator has to loop Sara into the conversation. Her cohosts should naturally let her have a say. But Ana and Sunny never do.

Rumor has it Joys contract ends this August. So far Amber is ok. She has her own show so no way she’d leave that for this. The op-Ed conversation was interesting. Wish it could have kept going (sorry Jesse Tyler). Joy brought up counter arguments and there was some interesting debate between Sunny/Sara. Ana’s comment (and Sara’s response) at the close of the segment were also interesting.

Amber is a comic? Sounds like a potential replacement for the Joy seat.

Deborah would be an AMAZING moderator. And let it be known Julia, a reality star, has been more of an insightful and interesting guest host more so than any of these “pundits” they are so desperate to make sparks with.

Really solid show today with good discussion. Julia was charming?

I wonder who decides every time if Sara or Sunny get to do the shilling for VYD?

Whoopi off on a movie shoot! Not upset about this panel makeup.

Now they are inserting prerecorded VYDs on us?

Whoopi made even less sense than normal today. ”None of us know!”

If this show is hellbent on picking someone from those that have chemistry tested more than once I’d begrudgingly give it to Alyssa. She was by no means a favorite but out of those that have been brought back more than once she AT LEAST provides a perspective from a different age demographic for those non-political topics. They need to listen to the original intro once more to remember why the show works best when there’s true ranges of age at the table.

Whoopi did the thing again today where she started to introduce the topic, and before she gets the question out to the other panelists, answers it in a passive aggressive manor so much that there’s not much left to even discuss. It totally throws off the flow of the discussion, sets a negative tone and makes it near impossible for anyone to disagree since she’s already said how’s she sees it and is rarely willing to listen to anyone who disagrees.

I wish we’d have gotten Ana and Tara together to see that dynamic.

One thing I noticed Whoopi often does, is introduce a topic (condescendingly or blunders the slant) and quickly inserts her opinion that often undermines the topic completely. It’s frustrating the panel never pushes back on it and lets her mock or steer away from the topic itself. Not saying anything is agreeing but someone had to have picked the hot topic?

Tara Setmayer posted she’ll be guest hosting Tue-Thu. Is this round 3 for her?

Lindsey is getting surprisingly good reviews on Twitter. Not my favorite so far, personally. But it shows they need a non political pundit to fill that fifth seat. They are usually more all rounded and interesting.

It’s been interesting to see Sunny without a Megan or Jed to play off of. She definitely wasn’t this much if a hot topic without them.

It’s working because it’s just the three of them. These are three panelists who love to talk at length 😁

Well this is quite the panel.

Ana does talk to Whoopi when making her points. Maybe Debbie M had a point 😅

It was definitely Ana’s ask to change seats and Joy was not pleased!

I missed Ana today.

Pretty solid show today. It could be much worse than Amy Farrah Fowler. I suppose.

Stephanie surprised me how much I enjoyed her. But unless they are planning on getting rid of Sara, that demographic is taken. I enjoyed the discussions between Ana/Stephanie/Sunny. Whoopi never would have let them get that far but it was layered and interesting.
