RHJunkie August 21, 2018 Share August 21, 2018 2 hours ago, TheGreenKnight said: Apparently so. If the Real Housewives woman is the liberal equivalent of McCain, she's probably at the top of ABC's list of future employees. Giving power to vile people like McCain is only going to keep the table spinning and people leaving anyway, so they'll be sure to go through another 10 co-hosts the next 3 years. In fairness to Carole, I wouldn’t call her a liberal equivalent to Meghan. From what I recall, she wasn’t aggressive or loud but she was a bit condescending which is where I see the similarity with Meghan. That said, Carole does have a journalism background and has actively worked in the industry so I would be inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt and say that she would likely put on a more professional air when speaking on The View compared to how she approached the matter on a reality TV show that is intended for drama and when speaking with someone who she has a much more personal relationship than she would have with any of the View co-hosts. It’s very possible that her approach with Ramona on the Real Housewives show may have been influenced by the fact that she was comfortable enough around her to be completely frank and direct with her, even if it made look bitchy. 3 Link to comment

She should have another show that is just her again. She is such a nice interviewer. I even liked that little show she had in her apartment where interesting women came over to visit, it was so much fun. Ahhhhhhhhhhh crap. Cocktail time. Gin and Tonic tonight. ha! Loved this post.

Why not an intelligent, well-spoken woman, there's many who would fit. I want conversation, not drama. I also wish The View would hire a sane, intelligent woman to represent the conservative side of the table. Or better yet, just go back to the way it was in the beginning when the women just shared their own personal thoughts and opinions, and I had no idea which political party they voted for. 19 hours ago, WarnerCL45 said: Well, you see - the show's producers want drama!

Mostly because they never have anyone "test" for the position. Barbara always had the co-hosts try out before she hired them. It was in everyone's benefit - and allowed her not to have to fire them after 6 months! Second- I feel like this show has really mis-stepped finding a millenial voice. They ignored the demographic for quite some time and then when they did finally hire someone it was Raven Symone. Nice woman, but a terrible fit for the show. Now we have nepotism run amuck with Meghan and Abby. 10 Link to comment

lookeyloo August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 I guess they have a formula that gets them enough ratings to get sponsors and if the fur flies so to speak, that is good for ratings. If no one watched they would go off the air or retool themselves. they are probably thinking they have the recipe for success. And maybe they do, just not what we want to watch. We could all inundate their sponsors with complaints since writing to abc or the view does nothing but fuel the fire. I'm not watching until I hear something good on this forum. 7 Link to comment
RHJunkie August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 In this day and age where TV ratings in general are down and people are finding other ways to watch shows, there must be additional ways they measure 'ratings'. Aside from traditional viewership, I wonder how much stock they put into their Youtube views, the press coverage they get from mainstream or independent media, the comments they receive from viewers (I would think in their minds, if you're commenting it means you're watching and they don't care if your consumerism is based on the fact that you love to watch or you hate watch). Unfortunately, we live in a time where behaving badly and causing chaos is what earns you 15 minutes of fame/money and allows you to extend those minutes. 12 Link to comment

And we as a society are worse for it. Success isn't measured by how much good you do or by how much you accomplish. It's now measured by how many social media followers you have or how many clicks you get. The View once had Meredith Viera and Star Jones. Women who worked for what they had and brought that experience to the table. We now have Meghan and Abby. Two rich kids who as far as I can tell would be completely unknown and irrelevant without a rich daddy. 16 Link to comment

TheViewFirst1 August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 I feel were jumping to conclusions too quickly with Abby, lets wait until Sept. 4th. We have to remember Jed was from Fox News she was started by Sean Hannity yet she was pretty decent, despite being Meghan's friend Abby doesn't seem like the person to carry the same heat that Meghan does, Meghan is one of a kind so far. Abby also did guest co-host The View back in 2014 a few times when Sherri and Jenny were still on. She seems like she could be more like Jed where we will disagree with her political views but she seems to have a nice fun personality judging from other interviews and her social media. But like I said we will see on September 4th. Former Co-Hosts congratulating Abby https://twitter.com/lisaling/status/1034648364560789504 - Lisa Ling tweeted congratulations to Abby https://twitter.com/sarahaines/status/1034552822593986567 - Sara Haines tweeted congratulations to Abby 2 Link to comment

I am just pissed that the show has not only re-signed Megan, but, have added another conservative who will not bring a fresh perspective on the show. This show just want sparks with women screaming at each other. If the show had hired Tara or Anna, I would be over the moon. They are intelligent women who are well-informed, strong, open-minded, capable women of color who happen to be conservatives. Now, I will have to watch the women tiptoe around Megan and not push back on her lies, misinformation and propaganda to not upset her further during her time of grief over her dad. She will also use her dad's death to her advantage. I sound cold and heartless, but, I don't put nothing pass Megan. She is a piece of work, nasty to the core. I hope Joy does not let Megan get under her skin.. Edited August 29, 2018 by Apprentice79 15 Link to comment
WarnerCL45 August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 I’m not happy with Meghan being re-signed, either. I’m hoping Abby will be so popular, Meghan will be pushed out. I wouldn’t expect it right away due to respect for her father. 8 Link to comment

Jaded August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 (edited) It looks like an old photo from last season with Abby photoshopped onto the end. It reminds me of the way they stuck that awkward shot of Meghan into the opening since she came on after the season started to replace Jed. The least they could have done was make Abby's arms all one color in that pantsuit since they were already adding her into the photo. Edited August 29, 2018 by Jaded 3 Link to comment
