I agree that Jenna is in over her head. I don't know what they could do in its place. If they put a bigger personality in permanently it would make Jenna second banana again (my opinion anyway) and that would be awkward. I actually kind of miss Hoda, I didn't think I would. She added some spark to the 4th hour and to the Today show. Savannah and Craig are kind of blah. The show seems to have lost it's energy.

Sorry, but the shorts and sweatshirt look is way past boring. He doesn't have to wear a suit, but a nice pair of pants and a sweater or jacket could also be comfortable and look 100% better. I get he doesn't care how he looks.

I agree with Joy. I think we will never know if Biden hadn't dropped out, but I do know that MANY people just plain did not vote. I think they would not vote for a woman, and a black woman at that. We live in a racist, misogynistic country. They didn't want to vote for Trump, so they just stayed home. So look what we have now. I wonder what those people who didn't vote think. I WISH the media would be as hard on Trump as they were on Biden.

The shots of trump and family at the church - wow, Tiffany looks very smug, mean and defiant. The others look kind of expressionless but she looks like a bitch.

Actually, very early after the killings, Fox News said that the person was an illegal border crosser, and even after they walked back the falsehood, tRump continued to blame Biden: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/trump-gop-allies-falsely-blame-new-orleans-attack-immigration-failures-rcna186022 So, Whoopi was not wrong.

I think I started watching around the time they got married, I have never been a regular watcher, I can either get up at 3 am or DVR and mostly I don't do either. I usually just see the last hour. She just seemed a bit more talkative in the past. I know she most definitely defers to Joe.

I mostly just watch the six o'clock hour (I'm on the west coast) but lately it looks like Mika just sits there demurely sipping her coffee and smiling/looking adoringly at Joe. Is that all she does? Has she been drugged? I'm getting a Stepford Wives vibe from her.

I get the feeling Whoopie thinks her job (maybe it is) is to chastise the others. It irritates when there is a good discussion going and she says they have to stop talking about it, obsessing about it because we just have to wait and see. She rules the table with an iron hand. And PLEASE stop with the "you all in the audience look so familiar to me." Please just stop. If the topic is beneath her, she looks at the audience, makes a bored face and rolls her eyes. Rude. I wonder what her line will be after Jan. 20 when things will have gone to hell. Funny that she refuses to say his name but says we have to give him the benefit of the doubt "because we don't know what is going to happen." What's the saying? "The best prediction of future behavior is past behavior."

I 100% agree with Ana. Did I catch this, did Alyssa also throw up her hands and laugh and say "I'm not panicking!" Of course you're not. Please. They are ALL in a privileged class but at last Ana acknowledges it. Sara complaining because she is not seeing enough of Biden "out there." Once again, proving that Biden cannot do anything right. I wonder what this program is going to be like after January 20.

This. Quite possibly Biden sees the handwriting on the wall. He may see that all hell is going to break loose after January 20. Maybe some members of the media and the Democratic party need to think about this and make their own plans. I'm expecting the worst. I listened to all the Dem speeches before the election that told us we would be in dire straits if he got back in. I don't need to wait and see. Trump is showing us every day by appointing thugs into high government positions.

I agree about the dad. Also bugged me how the wife and daughter catered to him.

Sunny looks so miserable sitting next to Alyssa and I don't blame her. She's a bit of a fraud as far as I am concerned. Alyssa is in the "let's wait and see if he will be presidential" camp. Hmmm ... we lived through four years of "waiting for him to be presidential." Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

Why does Whoopi start the show with "You all look so familiar" to the audience. I don't get it. They don't tape more than one show a day, do these people come back day after day?

I also wish the Whoopi would not interrupt with her let's wait and see/eat popcorn line. I just see the atmosphere on The View becoming more contentious as time goes on. Unlike Whoopi and Sara, we are just seeing a glimpse of what is coming and I for one am not expecting rainbows and ponies after January 20. Whoopi following Ronan's segment - take a deep breath and maybe make a phone call! Who is she trying to kid? Who would you call and if you did, you are going to get automated voicemail. Good luck with that.

Alyssa is bugging the H out of me daily. I can't wait until tomorrow when the discussion brings up the news today that the proposed Secretary of Education is a defendant in a sexual abuse lawsuit regarding WWE. A fight announcer was accused of sexually abusing minor children, boys who were working as "ring boys" during fights. She and her husband turned a blind eye, or so the accusation goes. Apparently being a sexual deviant is a common thread among trump's cabinet picks. Takes one to know one, I guess. Alyssa has turned true MAGA and it will be hard for her to disguise it as times goes on. I do not know how Sunny can stand to sit next to her.
