Monday is a taped show, at least according to Wonder who told us that they were taping it after her episode. We probably will get a fluff piece show then with everyone honouring MLK and black folk....maybe, but I'm going to assume that will be the case so I'll be skipping that day and watching the Real (we have a thread now!)

Wednesday disappoints me, because you know that the guests will have 3 minute segments and that's it. Why book two(three) people for the same day?

I don't know who Colin Quinn is, but I expect Meghan to give Chris Cuomo a tough question unless he mentions something about her dad.

Me too. VERY well done.

A successful comedian and sometimes actor...more appreciated by men than women.  He's 60-ish and "in" with most other successful comedians.

MM little BS about how she says once a week I’m going to stick with love left a bad taste in my mouth. It’s a wonder she didn’t  say she had it framed on her wall. I see you Megan  

I loved  Blackkklansman/blown away about it being it being a true story! 

I used to love Colin’s show Tough Crowd.

He's pretty funny, doesn't do stand-up as much as a one-man show now, called Red State, Blue State. 

He talks about the polarization in the country, which Meghan screeches about all the time.  But he is more intelligent and thoughtful about it, in a sarcastic way.

With Seth Meyers talking about Christmas:

Why is MM wiggling so much on her stool?

There are times I feel sorry for her...wait!  There are times I feel sorry for any other heavy-ish woman struggling to perch on that stool.  The problem is the beautiful upholstery fabric; it has no slide" factor.  If they would change to leather or another smooth surface, things would be easier.  I know whereof I speak.

While watching a tennis match last night, I thought of Meggie when a commentator, describing the "temperature" of the match, quoted Mark Twain saying: 

"Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured."

I think Meggie is full of anger & it colors everything she says (& does).

She is too bitter and angry for someone who has had all the privilege she is surrounded by.  I get the impression she thinks she should have/be more.  She is rich. Has a family who I guess loves her. Has a job that most people would love.  Has never struggled to pay her bills.  The only tragic thing she has had to deal with is her father dying.  Which is something the vast majority of people have to deal with.  

Meghan honey, instead of wallowing in grief about what you lost take a minute and reflect and be thankful for what you have.

Thank you, BlondieCO332.

I struggle with not wanting to hate anyone  or be mean.  It's just so annoying to watch MM for so many reasons. So:

1.  Why watch?  I loved the premise of the View to have different women with different viewpoints talking together.  Not vying LOUDLY to be right, and obscuring others' comments,  or being  incredibly rude/insulting  (to cohosts, much less the audience, or guests, etc.

2.  MM's ignorance of history/politics/vocabulary is disheartening to see when so many other capable women could do a 1000% better job.

3.  MM's lack of professional abilities or an engaging personality, coupled with her entitled arrogance is mind-boggling that she is on tv. She is empty noise.

4.  The world is her oyster for her to do good--do something specific to help the veterans, or others; not just blather on about it and accept awards on behalf of your dad. DO something worthwhile!!!!

I guess I put myself in her place and could think of a million service projects that I would love to do to help others. And MM wastes a remarkable opportunity with her (below sea level, kiddie pool) shallowness and inflated ego. 

Ok, rant over.

Did they really just make Whoopi apologize to the people who were offended by her bike lane comments last week?  Really?  There were people? Sure, she was riled up and full on cray cray, but come on.  Offended by a typical Whoopi rant about bike lanes? At first it sounded like she was apologizing TO the bike lanes.  Are people just getting "offended" by EVERYTHING now?  Yes.  yes, they are.  I hate the world sometimes. 

Also, Whoopi has literally conferred to Meghan at the beginning of every segment of the show so far.  I guess Meghan gets the floor first and foremost now.  Over everyone else.  "Meghan, sweetie, is there something you wanted to say, honey?"

Wrong word. Changed deferred to conferred & added some more thoughts.

Meghan: Yes, I need to talk about and, of course, show a picture of the award for my father.

So the Black Israelites ranted towards them, so these kids, who were wearing MAGA hats, decided to retaliate by mocking a Native American man.

Meghan's "nuanced" argument is because she (rightly, in my opinion) protested the way the boys disrespected a Vietnam veteran. But because "a friend of hers" is in the side of the boys, she's willing to walk that back. I just don't understand  how taunting by the Black Hebrews makes the treatment of Mr. Phillips okay.

So by that logic the Native American vet should be allowed to go and scream at someone.

I really hate it when Megan and Abby always have to find a way to crucify the media whenever they make a mistake. Mueller never said the Buzzfeed report was wrong, just that some things were inaccurate.  Like Whoopie said we all make mistakes and it does not mean anything nefarious.  

Megan was throwing the word nuance around this morning and she does not know how to apply that word when it is warranted. What a dumbass!

Ugh, how exactly does the story change? Regarding the the maga hat wearing teens. They were still ugly and obnoxious to the native american man. So another group was also being ugly and obnoxious  how does that absolve the teens?  I hate that everyone is oh we overreacted,  no we didn't. Sunny is right where were the chaperones?

It's amazing right? The same people who are defending these kids, who bravely shot down bigotry by acting like fools to an unrelated party, are the same people who called Trayvon a thug and said that the Parkland kids were actors.
