I'm shocked that it's not all repeats this week.  I would have guessed they'd take the full week off.  Fri is a repeat although it's not stated.

Tim Allen, ugh.  Go away.

Thank you, I just fixed it.

I agree. He stopped being enjoyable years ago.

[Medicine Crow]

Missy is already in a huff at the end of the first block.  She interrupted the others all through the Bloomberg conversation & was pissed that she didn't get to "speak last" (arms folded & all) ... LOLOLOL!!!

[Haleth]

Meg chooses Uncle Lindsey over a vet who calmly asked him about his position. Whodda thunk that’s where her flag waving and military cheerleading ends?

I understand why Meghan might be conflicted where Graham is concerned but why all the apologies. Just sit there and let everyone else talk. 

[Axie]

Meghan is always ALWAYS screaming about respect for veterans, but, when Uncle Lindsey disrespects one, it’s the vet’s fault.  Hmmmm.

She loves talking about the optics of things, but because Linsdey Graham is involved, she doesn't want to talk about it. If this were a Dem doing this to a vet, she'd be screaming into the abyss about it.

Yes if any Democrat had done this she would be mad as hell.

Please Sunny,  your hair looks like a dead animal on top of your head.

I am agreeing with Whoopi a lot,   when she's on point , like today  I'm so glad she's moderator. 

She didn't say it was the vets fault.

She definitely inferred that it was his fault.  She started talking about how people looking for media attention would ambush her dad in the Senate hall.  She basically said that's what this guy was doing. 

[Haleth]

Dear Sunny, statistics* also show that more break ups occur because of jealousy than extra marital affairs.

*Ok I made that up but she’s being ridiculous. The other day my husband told me about 2 women friends who gave him a hug and kiss. I’m not worrying and neither should Sunny.

We seem to frequently be watching two different shows.

I caught a few episodes of Home Improvement a few years ago, and it was pretty good. They don't make sitcoms like they used to!

What episodes did you see?

[lusinia]

 Meghan's got more friends; this time - casino owners.

Uh...Bloomberg news said they wouldn't be investigating Bloomberg or the other candidates.  That's pretty uncomplicated.

Almost every candidate gets a lot more attention than usual when they first enter the race.

Meghan gets a little snippy about the commercial break again, and then she crossed her arms. That's becoming a habit for her.  If commercials bother her so much, she should find a job on a premium cable channel or PBS. 

And there she goes again, acting like she doesn't have enough time to talk, so she just won't (but then she does). 

Seriously, they could go pluck some random person from the sidewalk to co-host for a week and that person would very likely learn in that time how to professionally host a show better than Meghan has in 2+ years. 

She always has to let the audience know that she would rather be anywhere else - she's reading and/or taking notes as soon as she sits down at the table (5 minutes earlier is too soon?); she's upset when there's a commercial break (which is gonna happen, missy, if you also expect to be the last one to speak); she repeatedly looks toward the audience/producers instead of paying attention to the people at the table.  I wonder if she was like this on her Fox News show?

I’ve disliked Tim Allen since I watched him, two different times, disparage both of his daughters looks when they were just children.  

[Haleth]

I know it annoys Meg when she doesn’t have time to speak before going to commercial but it makes me laugh. Yeah, if you insist on having the last word that’s going to happen. I hope the others continue to have a conversation every day while Meg sits quietly waiting her turn (dot dot dot) and then the time runs out.

Oh, I don't remember. They were on in the breakroom at work. When Home Improvement was first airing I was in elementary school, so I was just surprised that I could still appreciate it as an adult.

[blondiec0332]

Once again it's all about Meghan. Lindsay Graham is nice to her and her family so it's all good.

He's somewhat like Patty Heaton for me in that I've liked a lot of their work while despising their politics.  The big difference between the two though is I feel like Heaton is probably a nice person in real life while Allen seems like a giant tool (appropriately I guess).  

[Ladyrain]

I recall just recently when Nutmeg went off the rails in her defense of veterans.   She nearly stroked out over it.   But this particular veteran who had questions for her precious Uncle Lindsey that he didn't want to hear and just dismissed the man???   Meggie's just fine with that.   Disrespect shown to that veteran didn't bother her at all, since defending him would mean criticizing Uncle Linds.    What a fricking hypocite she is.   She better not EVER rant and rave about her love of vets ever ever again.   EVER.

[Coffeewinewater]

I find it  hilarious that Meghan always wastes more time explaining  she can't make her point before they throw to commercial, then actually making her point.

Yeah, it's not like she does not get a chance to voice her opinion earlier before the break.  Such a spoiled brat.

Ugh last week Meghan nastily told Sunny to let her speak, and Sunny had to remind her she spoke a lot. Why she thinks what she has to say is so much more important is beyond me. 

Regarding female friends, I’m sorry but I don’t think men and women can be close friends most of the time. Every straight male I’ve gotten close to has hit on me.

I've always had close male friends and if/when they hit on me (in my much younger days) I just let them know how disappointed I was.  The friendships continued...but these were all from elementary/high school days.  I live in my hometown...well, in the next city over.

Meghan needs to stop with her obsession with showing “respect” to veterans, especially because I think it has more to do with her lionizing her late father rather than some principled belief about veterans. They’re people just like the respect of us.

Thst said, I think she saw this stunt for what it was. His being a veteran had nothing to do with his opinion about Trump. And especially with everything going on right now, nobody has time for antics. So I think that’s why Lindsay bailed. Of course it looks like he was “disrespecting” a veteran, but I think the guy was probably on some bullshit and just wanted to have a moment on camera.

Yeah i could see that.  Or maybe he saw a chance and took it.  It didnt seem like he was reciting anything, like he practiced. It sounded off the top of his head.  Graham was in a no win sitch,  and plus arent they on a time limit?  So he probably had to haul ass just to get back there.  Would have been nice if he had conveyed that to the Vet though.  Two seconds to say Im Sorry, I have to get back to Chambers.  Anything.

Seriously! I think you're absolutely right that it's about her father/family. Not bringing up your appreciation of veterans at the slightest provocation and not looking at them all as saints doesn't mean you don't appreciate their service. Her romanticizing the military is so old, and she's not the only one on the panel who has military service in her family. The others just don't bring up their family members and their achievements in the frequent manner MM does.

Oh ok, i dont mind then.  Im usually doing something anyway and not paying too much attention.  Spoiler alert:  watch JLC give MM the side eye of ridiculousness towards the end of the interview. MM asked some question and thats when JLC looks at her like wtf. I dont recall the question but i think it was something that was already asked but differently.  It turned upbeat again at the end.she is a classy smart lady, i like her a lot (JLC) 

[Haleth]

I think maybe only the Eastern time zone got to see the JLC episode while the committee was on a break.  ABC slipped it in.  My son and his gf had tickets to see a sneak preview of Knives Out last night and I'm anxious to hear how they liked it.

It was the Santa Clause movies. But that had more to do with the supporting cast than him.

That is the perfect way to describe him. He seems like that guy who is real loud in a bar. Making comments about every woman who walks in.

And Tim if you have to preface a joke by explaining the words you are going to  use aren't meant to be offensive those words you use are going to be offensive.

[GoldenGirl90]

They're not allowed to say the word hymen? What?

Too bad Sunny couldn't finish what she was saying because that's what T.I. actually said in the initial interview. He wanted the gynecologist to check whether his daughter's hymen was still intact and despite being told that the hymen can be broken due to a number of reasons, he still remained ignorant. Pretty disturbing and disgusting. I'm sad for his daughter. 

And why does Meghan have to bring herself into the conversation? Just why? Can she talk about anything without bringing up herself or her dad?

Edited November 26, 2019 by GoldenGirl90

Ok, this is bizarre. The convo about some rapper I never heard of checking his daughter’s virginity is suddenly about Meg. It has to be the most convoluted way she’s ever turned a story back to herself ever.

Since the clip of her father was all ready to go, I'm assuming that hot topic was done specifically for Meghan, in order for her to show that clip.

[OnTime]

Is this show taped today?

I really don't need to see a clip of John McCain and then endless face book talk!

[Bronzedog]

Sunny's show on Discovery has it's season finale tonight?  It's four shows per season?  Hardly seems worth it.

I can’t say I’m surprised by that. McCain wants us to know she is a VICTIM being “silenced” first and foremost—even if that’s at odds with reality.

I forgot to post yesterday, so just wanted to say yesterday's first segment was so much fun. I think Sunny’s words about Biden apparently not being considered a viable candidate by many is what really pushed McCain over the edge (I love Sunny; you know she did it on purpose). Missy wanted the segment over right then and was folding her arms like a child by the end.

As for today.... Zzzzz  I'm glad Joy showed her blatant disinterest in the BS they're talking about. It's not like Whoopi or McCain have ever felt bad about shitting on a topic they're discussing before.

Like Sunny’s novel?  MM “why is this taking the whole segment?”  And Whoopi- I wish Sunny would let her have it sometime
