I might tune into the second half Friday to see Adam Lambert. That's it for me.

[TheView]

In other words, if you don’t agree with me I’ll call you names.

I’m interested to hear from most of the other guests. 

[gatopretoNYC]

A number of guests I like this week - Evan Rachel Wood, Masie Williams, Adam Lambert, and the Hadestown number. However, I feel that the show will either not be on, or the guests may cancel. The guests for Seth Meyers' show last night canceled.

Exactly. Apparently, Dana Loesch is afriendofMeghan's, although they had a rather tedious Twitter fight in 2014.

On a Tv show, she also called Messy stupid and ignorant of all things politics, it was a delicious takedown of Megan. She said everything we have said about her on here and they are on the same team. So Megan has always been nasty and obnoxious, incapable of listening to another point of view without taking offense.

[TheGreenKnight]

So the lineup changed. Did many of the guests cancel? They should just shutdown the show for a couple of weeks or a month.

Yes, and MeAgain had the same online ugly fight with Ben Shapiro and now they are besties.  Even her husband dissed her horribly online and she married him.

[Haleth]

So only Dana and Justin Hartley have not cancelled so far.  Really, I don't want to watch Whoopi, Sunny, and Meg yammer for days on end.  Just go on hiatus!

[TheView]

Sara is guest co-hosting tomorrow

Good. I hope they bring her back!

[whydoiwatchtv]

lol, I wonder if Meghan knows we call her Megaphone here all the time and it’s a little wink and a nod 😂

[GiveMeSpace]

Giant Megaphone. I wonder if that was her Secret Service name.

[Haleth]

Bless her for her service and duty during this time of uncertainty. 🙄

[lusinia]

I'm surprised they'll be on this morning.  I was really expecting them not to be, with just about every other talk show in reruns.  I guess it's at least in part because the show is produced by ABC's news division, and obviously all the news channels are still on the air.

Meghan's delusion of grandeur just oozes off of that tweet.

[MeThinkMeNot]

I still don't think Whoopi should be going.

[Sam Spayaid]

Why would Whoopi still show up but Joy won't?!!!

Whoopi had that serious bout of pneumonia and almost died. What did Joy have that I don't know about?!!

[rollacoaster]

I agree, Meghan. If I had to be holed up with your husband for an entire weekend, I'd be furious too. 

Her over the top outrage is hilarious. After all the pivoting and deflecting and whataboutism, NOW you mad about how this administration's actions (or the lack) are impacting people? Girl, have SEVERAL seats. 

 

[lusinia]

Everybody's smiling when they first sit down....except Meghan.

Sunny's mother runs a school.  Sunny owns a restaurant.  Who knew?

I wish Whoopie would stop telling people to calm down.  Not because people should be panicking, but because without any further elaboration, simply saying "calm down" doesn't convey how seriously the public needs to be taking this virus.

There aren’t many things I can imagine that are worse than being holed up with Ben Domenech all weekend. Yikes!

It feels like it's because she might be personally affected by it, which is why she's so angry. Anything else, like gun laws and whatnot are dumb and partisan. But since it's now affecting her she wants the government to take action.

Joy is 77 and the advice for people over 70 in NYC is to stay home, and she probably has plenty of unused vacation days.  Whoopi is 64, but all that dope smoking has been hard on her lungs (even before she got pneumonia she often coughed and sucked lozenges throughout shows) and she should stay home too.  But now that Andrew Yang is out of the race, Whoopi needs to continue working to fund the lifestyles of all of her family members.

I miss Joy.  I wonder if they've thought about having her on via Skype, or something like it.

This all day long. 

It's so magnanimous of her to give permission for us to be indignant about this administration's handling of this crisis. Like she hasn't mocked people in the past for their concern about how Trump and co mishandle things. 

People have BEEN calling these clowns out. You didn't invent the concept, Meghan.

Graduation is 2 months away, and this is the first suggestion from Whoopie on what to do? wtf?

[GoldenGirl90]

I agree with Sara. Biden absolutely does better in smaller settings such as the one last night and town halls. He did great last night. Hopefully the whole “Biden has dementia” bs will stop now.

[MeThinkMeNot]

Sunny, Palin is a woman....

Sunny clarified that not any woman would work, which is what Bernie was saying. He'll probably pick a woman but he wants to make sure that their views align. Which is what Sunny is saying. I think her Bernie hate is blinding her to his answer.

Sorry, Meg, Dems will be more welcoming of a female VP candidate than Reps. You of all people should know that.

I haven't watched the show yet. Does Meghan really think a female VP wouldn't benefit the Democratic nominee?

Just now, blondiec0332 said:

She was saying if Biden chooses a female VP Trump will dump Pence and pick Nikki Hailey. She thinks Nikki will retain more voters than keeping Pence.

She is delusional.  I don't want to go off topic but people voting for Trump are voting for him. They couldn't care less who his running mate is.

We may not have an Oprah View your Deal, so we get Dr Phil instead....and I think there was an ad for Dr Oz.

Joy.

[Bronzedog]

If the show wanted to have a comforting mental health expert on, Dr. Phil ain't the one.

[GoldenGirl90]

Criticizing Bernie doesn’t always mean it’s due to “Bernie hate” but anyway... 

I really miss Joy. I hope she’s doing okay.  

[Haleth]

Gotta get in the VYD crap. 🙄

[MeThinkMeNot]

Oh wait....there is a View your Deal. Why would they do this to Greta after her health scares?

I was thinking the same thing.  I think she should probably be self quarantined.  I did notice, though, that she and Sunny were keeping a distance between them.

[BuckeyeLou]

Dr. Phil bugs me in general, but today he bugged me more than ever because he kept wiping his nose with his hand! Gross...doesn't he know not to touch his face?!

Joy is 77, so, while she's doesn't have health issues, she's at an increased risk age.

Whoopi had a bit of her hair showing at the beginning, it seems she just hasn't redone her hair. I don't understand their confusion about Bernie saying he would want a progressive women. There is nothing confusing there. He is a progressive so he wants other progressive along with him.

[TheGreenKnight]

I didn't watch. How did Sara do?

She didn't do much and I kind of forgot she was on.

I thought it went better than it did last time.  She also asked some good questions.

I was about to type the same thing. After the first 2 segments I wondered if Sara had spoken at all but she did.

But..... if you need someone to flog their latest book, promote their wife's skin care line and also plug everything their sons are doing, while constantly reminding you about how qualified he is, how this is NOT his first rodeo and his many glowing accolades, then he IS the one. 

It sounds like Mags and Ben had a smashing weekend - I can just imagine all the bourbon drunk, guns shot and spirited discussions about good Republican values, whilst Mags furiously petted her hair and applied Purell. 

Thanks for clarifying Joy's absence. I am shocked at her age....damn, woman!!! You look GOOD!!

why they think they need this loser who preys on people's mental issues for drama on his show on to guide us thru this crisis is beyond me

it's not like his show is on ABC, so, why???
