She's probably thinking, I will do what I want, say what I want...what are they gonna do, fire me? That's all I got. Unless someone else can explain why she suddenly went off the rails today?

ginger90 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Once upon a time, Sherri stated that one shouldn't burn bridges with employers. Perhaps she forgot that theory or, perhaps she thinks the way she's acting is just fine and will only help her future projects? Link to comment
maryis1 July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 Milkeyedmender--so true about the irony of Jenny asking for research to support a statement. Sherri--true to form that no research is needed due to time--true to her idiocy. If only Sherri could state her comments in the polite way they do at the Talk. Perhaps Jenny has learned a very hard lesson and is now going with her newfound knowledge. 1 Link to comment
CousinAmy July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 Maddow threw some shade at The View last night on Watch What Happens. When asked about if that was a venue she would ever be interested in, she said when she was a guest she felt like she was a hen who got into the pig pen and everyone was talking without any idea how to deal with each other or having any idea what was going on or supposed to be going on and after a bit she was just excited to leave. So she pretty much has their number. I don't get it. How did Rachel see today's show last night? If Rosie is coming back, I now want Sherri to stay! Can you imagine the epic slapdowns? 1 Link to comment
Former Nun July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 (edited) Her facial expressions were full of rage and she was screaming like a banshee while flailing her arms around. All the while "let me challenge you to think another way." That was hilarious to watch...real performance art. Eyes bugged out, anger spread across her face and "facts" spewing out of her mouth. I wonder how many times Jeffrey has seen that act...and Mr. Sherri Nos. 1 and 2. "Let me challenge you to think another way," is probably something that has been said to HER innumerable times over her 47 years by various counselors, pastors, friends, and attorneys--maybe even Whoopi and Barbara. As for being ticked that someone called her, "Ma'am," generally a term of respect--or something an employer requires of his/her employees, hear this: Sherri, ma'am...it's so funny, but you're no longer a twenty-something. From now on be grateful that someone is giving you at least a small degree of respect. If it's upsetting, just consider it another cross to bear and walk on with a smile (you know that one you've pasted perfectly on your fact through so many, many difficult times). I can picture that bugged-out face spewing out who-knows-what to some innocent person at the Too-Tight Pleather and Moi dress shoppe Sherri frequents.

Jiggle Billy July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 (edited) I don't get it. How did Rachel see today's show last night? Rachel Maddow was on Andy Cohen's "Watch What Happens Live" show when she made her comments about The View and her experience there as a guest host. She was not impressed in the least. Edit: I've removed the video clip because the video RogerFromOhio posted is better. Tuesday on "Watch What Happens: Live," Rachel Maddow told Andy Cohen about her day as a guest host on "The View," and it's safe to say that she didn't have a good time. In a scathing review of the experience, Maddow said she "felt like a chicken that ended up in the pig sty." But that was only the beginning as she claimed, "Nobody knew what to say," and described it as a "weird environment." Edited July 10, 2014 by Jiggle Billy Link to comment

Cosmocrush July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 Damn, my dvr decided to exhibit some good taste today and didn't record the show so I missed Sherri acting all crazypants. I wanted to compare it to her over the top behavior in March (in that cooking segment with the guys from The Chew.) I think Sherri's entire world is unraveling right now and apparently she isn't even a good enough actress to ACT professional for ONE hour. I'm tempted to tweet her to 'get a grip' but instead I'm going to hope that one of those "good girlfriends" she's always talking about will tell her to do that. Maybe her great sister friend Elisabeth Hasselbeck? On nevermind, I see in the Media Thread, Bits has put on her own crazypants and become a little more rabid too. Yikes. 2 Link to comment

LuckyBitch July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 (Note to self: never skip reading this forum for three days because it sucks when you run out of "likes" before you're done getting caught up.) I'm still shocked that The View had Sherri and Jenny back on the air after it became public that they were fired. It's kind of ridiculous how they both blatantly lied and pretended it was their choice to leave the show. As if either one would walk away from this easy, part-time, highly paid gig. The show is such a mess with just one co-host left that's it's hard to figure out why ABC didn't just end its run and replace it with a brand new show. I guess they still think The View "brand" is powerful enough that they'd have a better shot at retaining the ratings than starting fresh with a new show. I wish they would just let the show, and Geddie, go and start over. 2 Link to comment

Okay, I am no longer conflicted! Sherri acting this way? She's probably thinking, I will do what I want, say what I want...what are they gonna do, fire me? That is why most organizations don't let you back in at work or, worse yet, live on tv. Good heavens both Jenny and Sherri are all over the map and screaming while they are at it. Had "Too many abortions to count" and yet thinks a corporation should be able to override labor laws and allow said corps from not allowing contraceptives through their healthcare. "We don't have enough resources here for our own kids we can't take those kids at the border" and other crazy stuff! 3 Link to comment
susieq147 July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 So Sherri, who had more abortions than she can count, thinks it's OK for corporations for tell women which contraceptives they can use based on the corporations owners religious beliefs? Someone please yank this hypocritical lame-brained twit off our television screens now. As much as I disliked Elisabeth Sherri is fast approaching that level with me. There is never any rhyme or reason to any of her "beliefs" or opinions. One day it's because she is a Christian, one day it's because she is a mother, one day it's because she is a comedienne. The Hobby Lobby Supreme Court decision has me so pissed. As a woman I cannot understand how any woman can side with them. Sherri's not understanding the ramifications of this ruling doesn't surprise me but I am still disappointed in her very caviler attitude about it. I'm guessing it's because it doesn't affect her directly. 10 Link to comment
backformore July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 (edited) An observation about The View coffee mugs. Past versions have had photos of all the hosts in the mug design. I guess when the current design was put out, that should have been a giveaway that things were changing. No photos, just pastel dots. I guess if I start my own corporation, i should just be a Christian Scientist, that way I don't have to provide health care, since I can say I don't believe in medical intervention. edited to add - Yes, SusieQ, this decision has set our view of women back a few decades. There was a time when it was legal for an employer to ask married women what their plans were for having children, and even if they were using birth control. THAT was determined to be discriminatory. Now, since an employer can dictate what methods of "family planning" you can use, we're going to be stepping back to a time when employers can discriminate against women because of the possibility of pregnancy.

I was not looking forward to seeing Sunny Hostin on as a guest co-host for three days since I've seen her on other shows in more of a journalist setting and she made everything unprofessionally personal. Naturally, she was unbearable on this show, her shining moment being when she said parents shouldn't take pictures of their children with their shirts off because...you know...pedophiles. So I'm guessing women should always dress according to a rapist's viewpoint, too? Why didn't she just jump straight to the victim-shaming, "Don't be surprised if your child gets molested after posting pictures like that!!! What did you think would happen?

To be fair to her, I don't think she was saying not to take pics of your children with no shirt on, it was more "don't put them on twitter/FB/instagram for the entire world to see". It also wasn't about molestation, it was more about the fact that the pedophiles could "enjoy" the pictures, and it's disgusting to think that some one is thinking about your child in that way. I do agree that people shouldn't be posting of their children in their underwear or a baby a naked. Partly because of the pedophile thing and also because at some point your child is going to grow up and realize that these pictures are on the internet for anybody to see and they may not like it. There are pictures of me in my parents photo album in all the typically poses (bath, diaper less, etc), but as an adult I would be mortified if these were online for thousands of people to see. 8 Link to comment

If it hadn't been for that infamous split screen she would have continued to be the "young one" on the View (as Regis Philbin always called her). But this time around her badmouthing Rosie I think is going to backfire. Most people have Elisabeth's number now. She isn't "poor pregnant Elisabeth" anymore.

Same thing with the Overgrown Tweenyboppers saying that celebrities need to have private lives, while at the same time grabbing their phones to tweet their lives. I respect Whoopi's right to privacy, because she doesn't live her personal life in front of the cameras and in the glare of social media.

RogerFromOhio, this just proves that Sherri has lost (or never had) short-term or long-term memory. Didn't she try to convinces us that the ONLY way for Kate Gosselin to support herself and her kids was via reality TV? Didn't she feel the same about Octomom? No reality person should ever (EVER!) have to cut down on extravagances, move their children to public school, move to an affordable place, shop and dress according to one's income. That's punishment beyond belief! Once a reality "star," always a person with a high six-figure-plus income. (I think Sherri was hoping for the same for herself and Huzzbin #2.) It's obvious to me now that Sherri was really afraid of Barbara. Now that Barbara is no longer on the show, it's like the teacher left the room and the bad kids went KA-RAZY. Ka-razy Sherri, ka-razy! I can't wait to boycott her next project. 8 Link to comment
CattyTiger July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 The most watchable part of today's show was Whoopi's response to...everything. Husband was even laughing about it. I couldn't count how many times her head or chin was in her hand or she was looking to her right with the "can-you-believe-this-crap" face. I got nauseous and thought about throwing up when Sherri was masturbating in her chair for what seemed like forever - after the picture of whoever that guy was. It was soooo much worse than when she did her "comedy" bit in the swiveling chair a few years back. Even when she first walked out, she couldn't have stuck her colossal breasts out any farther, then some weird-ass walk. And finally, after the game and she stood up, it was like that odd dancing thing she does. Looked totally stupid. I enjoy Jane Lynch so much on Game Night in America. I enjoy her on talk shows - especially with Craig the other week. Did not bother watching the last segment. 2 Link to comment

TribbleTrouble July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 I agree @Athena. In fairness, some celebrities really do put up with an awful lot of crap from disrespectful fans who don't know better than to not accost someone in a bathroom for example. That said, I've met Whoopi. It was a small, structured meet and greet event before a talk Whoopi was giving. It was an intimate event with about 30 people who paid to attend and have a glass of wine and a couple of hors d'oeuvres with Whoopi for an hour or so, and get a photo. Now, I will grant you that these things can be a sometimes awkward, weird way to make a living, but she was not particularly gracious or friendly. She was late, and she barely spoke or smiled. Basically she looked like she'd rather be any place else but with us. My mom and I were not especially impressed. Don't get me wrong, it was still fun and the talks she gave afterword was lively and entertaining. It's not every day that average schmoes like us get to shake hands and speak with someone as famous and award-winning as Whoopi, but we certainly left there with the feeling that she did not enjoy interacting with "the little people." I can easily imagine her reaction if an overly enthusiastic fan approaches her in public when she's not working. It's probably not pretty. 5 Link to comment
Athena July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 @TribbleTrouble Thank you for sharing your account. In that scenario, Whoopi was certainly working and should have been more open to fans.

grainofsalt July 10, 2014 Share July 10, 2014 I didn't hear all of Whoopi's rant but one of the tabloid shows played a bit of it. The way they made it sound, she was upset that there was talk that she and whoever else (cough Rosie cough) was hired wouldn't be able to get along. She said it was ridiculous to think that two grown women couldn't disagree and still be friends. It was almost like the way the original View was described. Link to comment

If Jenny thinks it's cute to post pictures of Evan in the bath (she said this yesterday, not sure if it was in the past, or she's still posting them) then she has to realize people are going to talk about it. If Sherri posts pictures of herself being bored at a track meet, then I think it's fair for us "little people" to comment on it. Sherri seemed to mostly be performing at Gospel venues these days. Good for her - she's living out her faith. And good for us, because I think it means that Sherri's celebrity "star" will be plunging down to Earth pretty soon. To paraphrase Richard Nixon in 1962, "You won't have Sherri Shepherd to kick around anymore!" As long as she maintains her body and her blonde-ness, Jenny will have a few more years in the spotlight. 4 Link to comment
Medicine Crow July 11, 2014 Share July 11, 2014 I'm surprised Sherri is gaining weight again. What about living to raise Jeffery? What about the diabetes? Today she said she just got a weave. (I had been wondering what kind of crappy wig she was wearing because it's totally not flattering to her face.) Her behaviour today was disgusting. Just sayin'. 3 Link to comment
