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.

I wonder who all these people are that Alyssa knows for fact are living hand to mouth and for that reason were willing to vote for a convicted felon, rapist, insurrection leader? I mean, she makes it sound like OVERWHELMING numbers. Once again as we get close to Thanksgiving and the holidays, news reports are letting us know that record travel is expected, airports will be jammed. Shopping season is here! Black Friday sales! Alyssa is toeing the Republican party line now. It did not take long. Sara is so naive, still thinking that 45/47 is going to step up and do the right thing. Honey, it is not going to happen. We see it every day. He told us what was coming. And here it is.

I think I'll be skipping the next Bachelor. I am not excited by the guy (forget his name) and seeing the previews of the girls cat-fighting was boring. I said to my husband, ooh I wonder if they are gonna get a trip to Italy?! Ha ha, Disney World with all the kids and grandkids. That could be a real test of the relationship! Well, Disney owns ABC, so ... Joan's son looked kind of like as asshole to me. Re him saying the kids and grandkids are everything to her (she gives her all), visiting them every day -- maybe he agrees with the current VP-elect who believes the purpose of post-menopausal women is to help raise grandkids.

I don't know, I am retired and would love the idea of living in a city where I could walk to restaurants, bars, bookstores, plays, etc. Of course I would want to live in a place that was nice, and I know that would take quite a bit of $$$ in NYC.

I remarried (after divorce) when I was 52. My husband and I were both 52. I had friends, but I wanted to be part of a couple. It's just different. Some people are fine being alone and that's ok too.

Of all the panel, I feel that Ana is the one I agree with the most - her sit back and watch it burn down attitude. I think that Sunny is having a really hard time accepting the situation, like a lot of people are. I sometimes wonder if she is harboring some guilt feelings because they must have played her asking Kamala "would you do anything different than Biden" at least a million times. Alyssa didn't take long to jump back into full Republican mode. Sara tends to look at the world through her rose-colored glasses, but as she said she has young children and has to hold herself together. Maybe she is falling apart on the inside.

Oh well, my bad, I had no idea who Ryan Murphy is, I googled him and realize he is into dark and kinky. Not my thing. I'm really disappointed in this show, I thought it would be kind of a fun escape, rich people on a cruise with some medical stuff thrown in. I'm really sorry they had to go in this direction. Not everyone is comfortable watching a threesome. And in this case, the doctor is their boss, their supervisor, which is not only wrong but stupid. In the "real world" which of course this is not, all three of them could and should be fired off the ship. We'll be deleting this off our DVR and going back to Law and Order on Thursday nights. As another poster already said, I think this show has jumped the shark.

Anyone know when some new episodes are going to be shown? It seems like there has been quit a while since I've seen one. I set my DVR to record new episodes. I see now that OWN is showing older HH episodes, but listing them as "new" on the comcast channel guide, so my DVR records them. I've tried canceling those, and going on the HH episodes I do want recorded, and specified HGTV only, but not sure if that is successful yet. Also noticed that HHI is not showing new episodes. ???

I don't know if the producers plan the dates and with whom they will be with, or if Joan has any input, but that date with Pascal was ALL wrong. He was feeling hesitant and just wanted a fun day to maybe get to know Joan better, but that ceremony thing - it was almost like a wedding or vow renewal ceremony and I think it really spooked him. It solidified his instinct that things were moving too fast and that he just could not conjure up enough feeling for a proposal in two weeks. When he said he had been in love before and know what it feels like and this was not it, I am sure she was kind of mortified being told this in front of a TV audience, but that is the chance you take when you agree to go on this show. I admire his honesty and I think he did it in a classy way. I mean, he went straight to telling her as soon as he arrived on the ship, wasted no time and then it looked like he was escaping when he got back on the tender to get away from the ship. Probably thinking, whew, I just dodged a bullet there. I don't quite get the cruise ship angle. Is she like the only passenger? I saw no one else. It looked empty. Windstar is a high-end line. Did ABC book the entire ship for the show? I don't care what anyone says, her hair is TOO LONG and looks awful. I have noticed other TV programs where the trend is to put the hair in front leaving the back kind of parted in order to do that. Which is fine I guess in front of the camera but at some point the back of your head is going to show and it just looks weird to me. At least her hair did look cleaner last night. I did like her outfits this time, they were not as trashy looking as some of the things she has worn. Being in the full sun does her no favors. "Two men are in love with me. One is not. Maybe I am unloveable." Okay ...

I know that after hearing the speeches and messages at that rally at MSG the other night, I turned to my husband and said, "We are lucky we are white right now." NOT that it completely protects us, I know that. I just see that if he gets back in I see a time when black and brown people are going to need to carry their "papers" in order to prove they have a right to be here. 😢

So true. On the View FB page there are vile posts about how much they hate the show and its hosts. While I know some here like to complain, and I do too sometimes as well, some of it is kind of humorous, but clearly on FB these people hate-watch and then post about how much they hate the show. That just doesn't sound normal to me. Nothing better to do with their time? Just hateful?

Well, they may never hear the magic words. I respect Republicans who do not agree with everything she says or believes, but they are generally horrified by the thought of him getting back into office and will vote for her. Honestly, I have come to realize that the things he says and does, what his plans are, which he makes no secret of, for some people those things just don't bother them. They agree with him. It takes all kinds.

What do these "undecided voters" think is going to happen? That eleven days before the election someone new is going to appear? I'm sorry, I am so done with hearing that.
