Of course Whoopi is happier! She's holding court and running her own show.

There is your voice dissing Rosie since September to all the rags. smh Ah, but there's still another "insider" spewing to the media, since this story was leaked out also. Sounds like things backstage are every bit as putrid as they are on stage. The fish is rotten all the way through. Is there anyone that the almighty Rosie O does get along with? After a while one must consider that if there is always the same person involved in arguments/disputes/shouting matches, perhaps that's the person who is culpable. A couple of wives, staff of her first show, staff of her magazine, Tom Selleck, Bitsy, staff of The View and countless others all seem to have problems with the same person - Rosie! Are we to assume it's always the others' fault when Rosie is always the common denominator? I'm beginning to think Rosie's safest place to go now is to do a kids' show. They're the only ones with whom she seems to have a lasting rapport. JMHO... ETA: Judging from the comments left after that Daily Mail article, there aren't many (outside of this forum anyway) that have very much of a positive nature to say about Rosie. Maybe it's time she lay low for awhile before getting into something else, both professionally and personally.

I liked the family member analogies used to describe all the past co-hosts too. Actually, I think this story kind of works as an obituary for The Spew as well. “The overall narrative of ‘The View’ is the relationships of these people to each other, how they develop, mature and fall apart,” said Robert Thompson, a professor of television and popular culture at Syracuse University. “There is a voyeuristic aspect to it.

Cosmocrush March 14, 2015 Share March 14, 2015 I thought it was interesting that the whole point (of the story linked above) is how the co-hosts themselves and the chemistry at the table was the draw of the show - it can make it (as when Meredith, Behar, etc. were there) or break it. No one tunes in day after day for Whoopi's shoe cam or Shopping Monday or whatever. Or at least I don't. I watch to see what these morons would do next. Whoopi seriously asking Sherri about evolution and if the world was flat is still one of my favorite moments of this show. And that's exactly why the never ending rotation of co-hosts rarely adds anything. They aren't around long enough to establish any kind of relationship at all so it's just the viewers watching endless job interviews.

I agree, I think you've hit on something. That's the unique thing about television. Viewers build a kind of relationship with these people that they invite into their living rooms daily or weekly. They become familiar and viewers need to feel like they're getting to know them at least somewhat. That requires consistency. Love them or hate them, the viewers need to care enough about them to be interested in what they have to say. Otherwise there's no point in tuning in and wasting your time. I used to care what Meredith, Star, Joy, Lisa and even Babs had to say because even when it was silly it had value and I felt like I had gotten to know those women over time. Even Elisabeth was fun to hate because her nonsense was balanced by the others. I personally thought ROs addition to the group in '07 was a breath of fresh air after all of the Star shenanigans. I didn't always agree with her but I understood her and felt her point of view added life and value to a show that had grown stale. After that imploded in such an ugly fashion the show began circling the drain in earnest for me. From the moment it was announced, I knew Whoopi was a terrible choice, and I even still liked her back then. I just knew she was a terrible choice for this show (although I had no idea then just how terrible). And don't even get me started on Sherri. Ugh. By then the only one I felt I still had a "relationship" with was Joy. I like Joy but she wasn't enough to overcome my lack of interest in what the other nitwits new to the table had to say. Slowly but surely I was deleting more than I watched, until eventually I stopped altogether. I only came back for RO because it felt like the return of an old friend, but sadly the magic just wasn't there the second time around. When she left she took the last shreds of whatever interest I had in anything the others had to say with her. I have no relationship to any of the constantly rotating panel members and none of them add any value whatsoever to the conversation. We certainly don't learn anything and they're not even entertaining - just boring and/or cringeworthy - and that's not worth an hour of my day.

I can't believe they survived the February sweeps. But this show is like a cockroach - nothing can kill it apparently. There was a brief Q & A with Babs in People Magazine back in late December (around the time of her 10 Most Fascinating special) in which she stated she's still co-exec producing The View along with being an occasional guest/guest host. So the question is, is that Babs being a bit delusional and/or disingenuous about her current role with the show or does that explain a LOT about why the show is still such a hot mess? Hmmm..... 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75506-the-view-in-the-media/page/16/#findComment-964202

Good question I'd vote for delusional and/or disingenuous. But maybe she is vetoing lots of stuff or blocking the removal of the dead weight in production? I guess I thought her EP title just that - a title that comes with a check but little else. I honestly don't know but even when she was there every damn day I doubt she did any real producing - she left that up to Geddie in my opinion.

maggiemae March 25, 2015 Share March 25, 2015 Sounds like a courtesy title to me since she is not even listed during the shows ending credits. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75506-the-view-in-the-media/page/16/#findComment-964962

A #newQueen is coming-preparest ye the way! 4 retweets 58 favorites I can't believe RoBarr was ever a serious candidate. She is WAY too cray cray, aggressive and unpredictable. If any of them thought RO was challenging to work with she would look like pure zen sunshine and light compared to RB. Also, like the Whoopster, she tried her hand at the talk show thing and failed. I confess, it would be kinda entertaining to watch her rip the others to shreds. That woman has no filter. There'd be nothing left of Nicolle but a gruesome stain on the table. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75506-the-view-in-the-media/page/16/#findComment-966416

There'd be nothing left of Nicolle but a gruesome stain on the table. Ha! I like how that sounds. But yesterday "the rumor" was Kathy Griffin and now some "insider" says it's Rosanne - whom I can't imagine being interested. And I have to laugh that despite reporting The Spew is looking for "youngyoungyoung" the gossip sites are reporting names of women over 50. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75506-the-view-in-the-media/page/16/#findComment-966645

TheGreenKnight March 28, 2015 Share March 28, 2015 (edited) So Whoopi is "in control of the show" now? I suppose that's why nothing's being done. And I really doubt they'll be hiring Raven if she is, since everyone has said they've clashed. Funny enough, I doubt Whoopi'll be blamed for the ship going down despite being in control, unlike Rosie O'Donnell. I can believe Rosie Perez has lost the love. We know the "sources" were talking about her and Rosie O'Donnell, while Whoopi and Nicolle were left almost entirely unscathed. It doesn't take much thought to figure out the bad press was coming from the two who weren't being written about. I would have no interest in being friends with anyone in that workplace after that. Even though I feel Rosie O ended up with the roughest deal, I feel sorry for Rosie Perez after all this, just because she spoke on the premiere that she decided to join because they had told her they would be a "team" who supported one another.
