["The View": Week of 6/17/2019]

I know most posters here don't like the View Your Deals, but I wanted to show my love for the Buddha Board. I bought a mini from working at Barnes & Noble on the weekends. We had a full-size one at Customer Service that was so much fun.

I think it's on their FB page, I follow the show on FB and Twitter so I see all the little videos they drop 

Thank you! I never thought to check there. They have some good stuff!

I saw a bit with the costume designer and where she comes up with the outfits. Then the actor who plays Guillermo said "the other three get all these great costumes and I have a rack with sweaters". 

I need to find that. I like so many pieces that Nadja wears like the fur thing, and I want that headpiece that she wore to the orgy.

Times and fashions sure make a difference - Marissa Tomei is 54 and Woody Harrelson is 57. Jean Stapleton and Carrol O'Conner were 48 and 47 when they started on All in the Family.

Yep, it kills me that that I'm actually older than Edith now. But thankfully times do change. 

I enjoyed the first part. I wasn't sure, but Marisa Tomei was great. Some of the jokes were very cringe-worthy given this economy, but I expected that. I laughed at several lines. 

Now the Jefferson's ep. I watched both All in the Family and the Jeffersons as a kid, and I remember watching The Jeffersons more. I loved JHud's singing the theme song. And Jamie Foxx is doing a full-on impersonation of Sherman Hemsley, but I'm not complaining.

Netflix recommended Dead to Me after my repeated viewings of Good Girls. 

Haha, today I recommended Dead to Me to a couple of fans of Good Girls.

Alexandra Henrikson IMDb

What's funny is she sounded just like a co-worker of mine, who's from Spain. I did love that she was there for too much defiling. How much is too much?

I love, love, love this show.  It's the only show I look forward to right now. 

It's worth watching just for Matt Berry alone. (Anyone who hasn't seen "The IT Crowd" should watch it. It's on Netflix.  He's great in it.  "God DAMN these electric sex pants!")

I love the whole cast.  I like that there is a female vamp.

And all those famous vamps in last night's episode! Awesome.

I actually started watching this show because I'm a huge Matt Berry fan. Yes, everyone should check him out on The IT Crowd, as well as Garth Merenghi's Dark Place, and Snuff Box (haven't seen Toast of London, but hope to someday). His music is also pretty good. 

But yes, the whole cast is great. Loved all the vampires last night.

Please, Crenshaw didn't do anything great going on SNL, and he's shown he's not a great guy since then by attacking Rep. Omar, then playing victim on Twitter. I can't stand him.

Too funny, I said the same thing to my hubs.  Hair petting.  

Plus they didn't have her do the rat-a-tat-tat blue card reading.

I think the problem is that Aidy is way too likable and sweet to be as annoying as Meg is. I do wish instead of "as the princess of Arizona", she said "as "John McCain's daughter."

Not bad overall, if a little tame. Maybe now that the current SNL cast has had a chance to do a The View sketch, they'll do another with more bite to it.

if you showed me this photo, out of context, not mentioning The VIew, I never would have guessed this air-brushed blonde was Hasselbeck.

It looks like if you put Kylie Minogue;s picture through about 10 different Instagram filters, then drunkenly cut and pasted the results onto a white background layer, drank some more, and then tried to blur everything at once. 

[Favorite Commercials]

I have only seen the shorter version of this on Hulu, but I'm in love with it and in love with Idris Elba. 

[Bob's Burgers - General Discussion]

I really liked this episode after being a little underwhelmed for the last couple (not that they were bad, but they were not memorable to me)  Now I'm going to need to try each of these sandwiches.

And, there you have it......

I was going to play devil's advocate and considered that she have drunk- tweeted that, but then I saw the timestamp. Still could have been drunk at 7am, I guess.  

And I could be wrong,  but I think she might have since deleted it. I can't find it anymore, and I've been going through buckets of popcorn watching most of the Twitterverse read her for filth since Tuesday.

She went on a diatribe about the founding fathers and the war of independence. It made no sense since the British have not been a threat to this country since the war of 1812.  Plus, the USA and England have strong ties as allies. A political analyst  like Megan should be a student of history.  So, her hatred of the British is bizarre, even for her.  Megan hates anything that is not America and Republicanism.  Megan has issues, we all have our demons, but, she is a piece of work..

I have a few family members like this--not exactly with a hatred for Britain, but a disdain for anything not American. So they couldn't understand when I went off to live in London for awhile. To them, if ti's not American, it's crap. 

I don't believe Meg likes or care about Meghan Markle, only that they share a first name. And of course Meg doesn't care about what members of Isis find funny. If it's not all-American politics, whiskey, guns, cacti and Real Housewives, she has no use for it.

Also, why is she so upset about Joy bringing up Nixon? As Joy and many historians have noted, there are a lot of similarities between the two. If Meggie "The Political Analyst" McCain knew as much as she claims about politics, one would think she'd understand the comparison. 

Because it happened before she was born.

Thank you, Ana, for finally pointing out Melanie's little excursion to Florida this weekend. I was wondering why they weren't bringing it up.

How was Whoopie pronouncing the word median?  Apparently, I've been pronouncing it wrong all these years.  Not that I use the word that often, but still...

Meridian. Maybe she thinks the NYC bike lanes go around the entire earth?

Side note: On what planet do people say "whoa whoa whoa" during that song?? In my area, it's always been more like "bah bah bah."

I thought Sunny probably just heard wrong, but she's closer to yours--or "bum bum,bum", which is what I've always heard--like the singers are mimicking the instrumentation. 

Never heard "whoa whoa whoa", and I've heard that song by a crowd, many, many times.

Whoop's ratty gray scarf is back. 

Here we go again with the AOC bashing. 

And the Obama whataboutism. 

Ah, new year, new update to the MM drinking game. Chug everytime she mentions AOC. 

Every day she just comes out of the shoot unpleasant and pissy about everything.

I'm from the South, still stuck here and that's never stopped those taxidermy animals from freaking me out. I've only been to a couple Cracker Barrels and don't think I remember them hanging in either one. I may have blocked them from my mind if they were there though.

I grew up outside Chicago, but have lived in the South more than half my life. Still, that New Jersey restaurant is the most taxidermy I've ever seen..

I get it, but I don't. It's something humans have done for hundreds of years. Fine. I'm okay with natural specimens and things that die of natural causes. I have a fascination with biology and almost majored in physical anthropology. I grew up going to the Field Museum of Natural History, and these days they make a point of indicating that their specimens have been there for over 80 years. 

STILL. Decorating your home with animals heads because you love guns is creepy. And yes, Meg and her hubby love guns and killing animals like squirrels.

[Meghan McCain: "Both Sides" Wannabe Tough Chick]

First I thought the all the flags, the framed copy of the Constitution and portraits of the Presidents as decor was over the top and tacky. Then I saw the pictures from the LA apartment. And now the buffalo head and deer antlers on the wall. It's official, I am completely creeped out by the two of them. 

Also, I'm reminded of this restaurant in New Jersey that my mom, sister and I stumbled upon before my cousin's wedding. Meg would totally be at home there.

Meghan really  

 

Yes, she really dug in hard on the Ann Coulter/best friend thing!  Probably because she just can’t understand that people with opposing political views can actually respect each other.  She also bugged the crap out of me with the whole dig on Michelle Obama.  Meghan is so tribal   she wants to color all people of the same group with the same brush...oh, and I believe Ortasio-Cortez misspoke when she fumbled the 3 branches of Government.  Meghan tried to portray her as ignorant.

She just thought that Ann Coulter line so funny, she just had to keep saying it! And Joy is right. Coulter, Limbaugh, Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity are all just bad comics. Unfortunately, Trump is their biggest fanboy. Stephen Colbert is a genius for taking the piss out of these people for years. 

Didn't both Meg and Abby say Ocasio-Cortez didn't know the 3 branches of Government? That's a blatant lie. They should be forced to apologize for that. 

I did love Meg trying--yet again--to get a shout out for Dan Crenshaw (because wounded veteran, y'know), and failing to get a response from the audience.

I wonder how she feels about Chelsea Manning as well. She served, but I'm sure Meghan would call her a traitor regardless.

And, more recently, the gunman at the Borderline bar in California was a Marine veteran. What did Meggy have to say about him?
