"The View": Week Of 3/25/2019

[GoldenGirl90]

The only time Meghan's scowl turns into a smile is when 1) someone she agrees with politically is on the show or 2) a reality TV show star is on the show.

Rosie buried herself with those comments.  Ugh.  I wish she'd kept her mouth shut.

1 she wants to be around yes men because she knows she can't debate anyone effectively and 2 because reality show stars are at Meghan's level. They haven't done anything worthwhile to be famous either.

... so I didn't think I could dislike the rabid chipmunk any more ... I can!!!

[Apprentice79]

What the hell is Elizabeth talking about? Her voice is still annoying, nothing she said made any sense.  Just empty platitudes and Christian talk.. Sunny's disinterest in her is very interesting.

Elizabeth has never disrespected Joy on the air like Megan has done.  That was the difference and I love the fact that Joy pointed that out and Megan had nothing to say.  Megan as usual made Elizabeth's return all about her.. 

[GoldenGirl90]

After watching those throwback clips, I will say I can't see Meghan or Abby fist-bumping Michelle Obama.

[Tunia]

Ahhhhh, the sanctimonious Elisabeth Hasselbeck returns.  Let's hope it's at least another 6 years (assuming the "survival" of The View) before that happens again.  She's just as annoying as ever.  Go away...stay away.

[Bronzedog]

I didn’t watch when Elisabeth was on, but, if she was this Jesus-y then, I wouldn’t have lasted a single show.  Still better than Nutmeg, though.

Have these comments been proven to be true or is another instance of Ramin Setoodeh trying to drum up business and publicity for his upcoming book about the show?

No, she was not a zealot. However, her meltdowns over birth control were legendary.

And her comparing to gay marriage to marrying a toaster.  The zealot tendencies were there.

[TheGreenKnight]

Whenever Elisabeth talks about the Rosie O fight, I just roll my eyes. She acts like she didn't deliberately go after Rosie O'Donnell in an obscene and unprofessional way to forge a name for herself. You were never an innocent. As for Rosie's recent comments, I was happy Sunny made sure to include the fact Rosie said her feelings were not "sexual" before letting Elisabeth go on her spiel. The softball part was dumb, but I almost wonder if that was just a bad joke that lost context on the page. I wouldn't know since I don't plan to buy The View book and definitely not Elisabeth's book.

I like how Joy said, "What about Abby?" when McCain tried to make the Hasselbeck interview all about her being an "outnumbered" conservative victim. Please. Abby said she isn't a hardcore conservative like McCain.... Well! I would never have known considering Abby and McCain say the exact same things everyday. The only difference is McCain does it with eyerolls, huffs, and screaming.

Abby and Meghan play good cop bad cop.  Or so they think. They both suck.  Neither one represents their tribe well.  Abby is useless and Meghan is obnoxious.  

[OnTime]

I turned it off after Bitsy started rambling at the table.

I did notice Meghan looked three times larger than Bitsy when she was hugging her.

Plus, Rosie went out of her way to befriend Elizabeth, introducing her to her friends on Broadway , bringing her to movie and play openings and offering her Florida mansion as a vacation spot for Elizabeth and her family.  Rosie tried to mentor her as well. Rosie did not realize that Elizabeth was a work friend and not somebody you socialize outside of work.. Rosie also is very sensitive and took a lot of things to heart.  Elizabeth was never her friend because she was an out and proud lesbian who challenged her beliefs.  Elizabeth wanted to be a conservative superstar and that meant more to her than having a friendship with Rosie who she viewed as beneath her ..

[Bronzedog]

Rosie needs to let the thing with Elisabeth go and go on with her life.  That was a long time ago and it’s a little obsessive to still be dwelling on it.  Plus, she was given a second chance at The View and walked away from it then, too.

[ari333]

Bitsy.... GACK Pass the Pepto

[tribeca]

Was the Rosie quote recently or is it in that view book ?  Whoopi seemed to enjoy that conversation a little to much.  I saw that split screen fight many times and the clip they showed today didn’t represent all that happened JMHO. 

Also having a crush on a coworker isn’t the same as sexual harassment.

The upcoming book is stirring the pot. Obviously a work of fiction, the author is doing his best to "Make Sparks"

I know Elizabeth was there to promote her book but I wonder if the producers may be considering her as a replacement for Abbey when she goes on maternity leave.

Which makes no sense since she only has 3 kids.  [walks away, scratching head]

I think Elisabeth is being too anti-gay when she discounts the account with such fervor.  I have had women make a pass at me and thanked them but said I was straight.  No big deal, but I accept all people.  I will say that Rosie seems, in my mind, that whe was really, really into Elisabeth - yuck - she needs to let it go.  I do know some people who think everyone is a bit of everything and that is just not true.

Nope. Bitsy lives in Tennessee and has to cook breakfast every morning.

Remember she is the Chief Breakfast Officer now and had to leave Fox because of it.

Even Fox got rid of her because she sucked over there.  Barbara Walters got her a job over there after she fired her and Joy from the View.

It's been reported all co hosts except for Whoopi and Elisabeth spoke to the author. They say fact is stranger than fiction.

[OnTime]

Yep, Bitsy moved to Tennessee several years ago. Tim got some lame radio job.

Rosie isn't saying anything- The author of the book on The View is making up stories (on all of them) to sell books.

Elisabeth did not seem comfortable being back and definitely has upped her Faith talk. Did appreciate her saying she would handle some topics with more grace and saying she felt she may have been part of the problem with being so rigid.

Joys comment about MM backstage was so telling. Can’t wait for that book. Love Rosie but that comment was not a good look. Didn’t like the fire part of Elisabeth’s answer saying Rosie was “grooming” her...she was trying to make her a better panelist!

What I've read are direct quotes from Rosie herself. For being such mortal enemies, Trump and Rosie are alot alike in that they have no filter and are unable to shut up and leave well enough alone.

Watching the interview was worth it for Joy alone.

I think OG stands for Oh Gawd lol

I missed the show.  Questions:  Did Elisabeth mention she has Celiac disease?  Does she still have a line of gluten-free products that she tried to shill?  Did they show any pics of the kids?  If so, did poor Timberley (Grace) still have a giant hair bow stuck to the side of her head?  Did she at any point cry out "but what about the children!?"  And lastly, is she still shrill enough to scare the family pets, including the deaf shitzu?

No, but, they did mention her fake story about Grace being treated like crap for having a Black doll. I have never believed that story. It was design to make Bitsy seem more sensitive about racial issues. It was also on the heels of Elizabeth crying because she could not say the N word..

So, repeating stale, fake stories from 2005.  How riveting her book must be.

[fishsanwitt]

Ugh. Hasselbeast was so fake. I cannot believe they gave her 3 segments to spout her religious bullshit AND throw Rosie under the bus. Again. I think she lied about Rosie. What a waste of time. Have the babies already, Abbeh! And, Meghan, STFU, you ignorant c***.

Really? I thought she purposefully retired because she wanted to raise her kids full time until they were older? I know that could have been a cover but I honestly would be surprised if Fox wanted to get rid of her.

Was she planning on reading excerpts, I wonder? And is this part of a new persona, to carry her Bible wherever she goes?  Saints preserve us from these hypocrites who wave their Bibles at everyone.

Are you guys shitting me here?  A bible?  For reals?  Or are you joking.  LMAO.  Don't ever change, Bitsy.  Go far, far away and don't ever come back, but don't change.

[falltime]

Did y'all see the audience shots they showed while the Elisabeth was greeting the co-host. Lots of disinterested faces.
