Former Nun March 4, 2015 Share March 4, 2015 Amy Schumer? Was it The View where the panelists were discussing her and said that her father is Chuck Schumer? I've been a fan of Amy's for quite awhile and had never heard that. Finally looked it up today and Wikipedia says: Schumer was born on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York, the daughter of Sandra (née Jones) and Gordon Schumer, who owned a baby furniture company. She has a younger sister, Kimberly, who is a comedy writer and a producer,[ and a brother, Jason Stein, who is a musician in Chicago, Illinois. Gordon is a cousin of U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer, making Amy Schumer and Chuck Schumer first cousins once removed. Her great-grandmother, Estelle Schumer, was a bootlegger in Manhattan. For God's sake why did Nicolle stand up and then scream even louder?! Pretending to be in Whoopi's "in" crowd as far as one of the male characters on "Empire" is concerned. I just can't recall which character. Poor, desperate girl. She seems scared and unsure of herself. She also doesn't look as fresh as she used to. I hope she's not sick or anything. She might be "sick" of the show...but she's also performing on Broadway and I think she's wearing a wig...a long, heavy wig that might keep her from being as animated. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-891224
merriebreeze March 4, 2015 Share March 4, 2015 (edited) I feel for Rosie P. She's being stifled and that's unfortunate. I didn't watch the show (I can't tolerate Whoopi anymore), but I hear that they talked about implants at one point. RP has a cute story to share about that, how she was at a spa or something where the women were topless and contrasted her natural breasts with the others' fake ones. Did she tell that story today? It's a lot more entertaining that Whoopi's boobs stories. Also, Rosie's still obviously affected by her injury. And I do think that every person at that table has their own "team" tweeting and posting on The View's facebook page. It's just all too convenient how the criticisms of Whoopi come in during the show, but afterwards, the posts are all about how funny and great she is. It happens with all the others, too.

backformore March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 Several of you have mentioned the poop ap, I'm almost afraid to ask but I'm curious and I trust you all. So, what exactly is this poop ap? from my (limited) understanding, it includes a sensor on your abdomen that tracks movement through your intestines and sends an alert to your phone about when you need to (or WILL need to) poop. I didn't see it as something a person without a medical condition would need - but they acted like it was silly, made fun of the idea, then talked about using it for when a kid is toilet-training, because it's just dumb to think a person would need their PHONE to "tell me when to poop." It bothered me, because I could see the medical uses for people with severe IBS, or with a colostomy, Crohn's, any digestive disorder which could result in loss of bowel control. Some people with chronic conditions are afraid to leave the house because of the fear they will soil themselves. children with disabilities, where they have no control over their bodies and have to wear diapers all the time. An app like that would give people with those medical conditions a lot of freedom, knowing what to anticipate. Just think about taking your disabled child out in a wheelchair, and always having to worry about where to change a kid who is not a baby, or worrying he will be embarrassed or made fun of. a Tv show mentions an app that will let you predict when your child will need to poop, so you can schedule outings, or get your child to a toilet in time. You'd want to know the details - and the name of the app! But instead of acting like adults, The View wants to giggle about it, as usual. I wish they would either treat such topics seriously OR skip them entirely. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-895561

ChicagoCita March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 (edited) Today Whoopi said today that she grew up without siblings.....but I've even seen her brother in the audience on the show. Or perhaps he grew up with their/his father? I am not a big Whoopi fan these days, but I can see several scenarios that could make this make sense. Could be a huge age difference between Whoopi and her brother. Example: My youngest sister is 17 years younger than I am and was born when I was already away at college. (Oddly, she and I get along great, better than with the other siblings, and we both think it's because we never had to compete for attention or turf within the family.) We are siblings, but she and I both grew up without the other one in the house. Or, it could be that they had different mothers/same father, each growing up with his/her own mom, and it being uncomfortable for all involved to have them interact much as kids. Or, I know several families who couldn't afford the children they had, so one or more were fostered out and raised by other families who wanted kids but couldn't have them for whatever reason. Or, could be that the brother "found" Whoopi as an adult. Weird as it sounds, I have a friend who discovered that his father is biologically not his father, then found his bio-dad through DNA testing. Turns out his bio-dad has two kids through marriage, and three "surprise!" kids who all found each other via DNA tests. So my friend has, at age 36, five new siblings in addition to the one brother he was raised with (who is, now we know, biologically his half-brother). And they are all strangers to one another. Just throwing some possibilities out there. Families can be confusing. (I am very leery now of getting a DNA test. Who knows what or who is lurking out there?)

maggiemae March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 I looked up WG and it was said on Biography.com her brother is Clyde Johnson and he is her younger brother were raised by their mother Emma "in a housing project in the Chelsea section of Manhattan." I think Whoopi left home early....but nevertheless has a sibling.....and was raised with one at some time...if the site (or Whoopi) is to be ....believed. Plus they both have the name Johnson. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-896852
fl2dc March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 You guys were right. Raven Simone, the youngest person the panel, was by far the most mature during the poop app discussion! 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-896902
susieq147 March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 They are so immature in their discussions if you can call them discussions. They act like everything is just hilarious with their over the top giggles. Since Whoopi joined the show (and when Sherri also first came onboard) this is how the show has been. They had three comediennes at the time (although Joy was capable of more than just spouting jokes) and it seemed the intent was to make everything funny. And it was usually a big fail. When Meredith and Star were there the humor was more natural. It flowed organically from their discussions. God I miss those days. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-897423
Foghorn Leghorn March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 I can't watch anymore, just can't, have tried, just can't.....removed from dvr..... 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-897522
JunieBug March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 I can't watch anymore, just can't, have tried, just can't.....removed from dvr.....I'm with you, Foghorn. No one should have to try so hard to be entertained or even just slightly interested. It's a shame. Although, since I've stopped watching my blood pressure has stabilized and I'm getting more excercise. Hey, maybe that's their secret goal; getting all of us to turn off the squawk box...brilliant, Mr. Wolff! It's working!!Anyway, try the music/dancing thing...just close the blinds first. ;-) 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-897713
RogerFromOhio March 6, 2015 Share March 6, 2015 There is a whole lot of fake laughter on the show today.... lots of cackling at things that are not all that funny...... but I guess if Whoopi says it one must fall to the floor and kick one's legs in the air 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/22901-the-view-week-of-030215/page/2/#findComment-897779
