"The View": Week of 5/6/2019

[blondiec0332]

Is there anything Meghan can do that won't get attention?

I got a really big feeling of sour grapes from the ladies when Whoopi was congratulated the Daytime Emmy Award winners.  I think I even heard Joy mutter "Whatever".  

That seemed very petty of all of them.

I get that they were disappointed, but show some class, ladies!!   The hosts that won don't scream in anger at their audiences, they don't get into pissing matches with each other, and they ostensibly, seem to get along with each other.  Maybe those are some of the reasons why the ladies of The View didn't walk away with the trophy.

And, I hope they really didn't expect to win over KLG and Hoda - especially with KLG making this past year "the year of her retirement from daytime tv", for now.  Of course, KLG would get the Emmy!

Did sunny really say she'd hide a body for her kids? If she did I'm shocked.  A mother might think that (I wouldn't) but an attorney on TV saying that huh? I remember Megh saying that she'd do that for dad or family.

Yes, she did. 

I loved Joy asking Crenshaw how can he apologize for Trump when even he is troubled by T’s character. 

[Orillia]

I was watching Joy's face every time Meghan was gushing about their new found togetherness . She was almost cringing . The picture in Blondie's post says it all .

At this point Joy and Meghan as pals is never going to happen , no matter how badly Meghan wants it to , Don't mistake agreeing with you for liking you .

Yes the look on Joy's face when Meghan was muttering that Abby wasn't stupid was priceless. The thought bubble above her head said *oh , here goes this bitch again * at least it did in my mind lol.

[PennyPie18]

I will, for sure, watch on Wed. to see Dr. Jill Biden. Over the years she has proven to be a lady of substance, intelligence, and compassion. How will MM react to see a woman who has all the admirable traits she so lacks???? JMHO, but I will be watching!!!

Sunny was right to correct Abby. What she said WAS stupid.

#familyvalues

Off the top of my head, there isn't a single personal related topic that Sunny engages in that doesn't make me roll my eyes. She has given her husband an open license to cheat because she's already told the world that she wouldn't divorce him over it. She's telling the world she'd hide a body for her kids. Lawyer or not, it's a downright stupid thing to say to anyone.

Yikes! Some of her statements are truly weird and TMI. I know she is very educated, so why does she says these dumb things that make you wonder where the heck she's coming from??

I am shocked she said that. Dont ask me why,  I just am. 

Yeah, I'll never understand when people say that cheating isn't a deal breaker , whatwhat??

I'm pretty sure she won't need to divorce him only because he will be dead.

Was Crenshaw suppose to get less segments? They only discussed one of the topics listed on their twitter.

Omg, thank you!  I missed Whoopi mocking Meghan this morning.  That was as awesome as everyone said it was.  I shall re-watch it a few more times because it makes me happy.  🤣  I don't even think I will ever bitch about Whoopi's valley girl voice ever again.

Did you guys notice how Megan had a pain expression on her face when the ladies were gushing over the Sussex baby who was just born. Prince Harry's joy at having witness his son's birth did not elicit anything from Nutmeg's cold heart. Yet, the Megan defenders will say that people hate her because she is a Republican. No, she is hated because she is an asshole that cannot see the beauty of a new baby being born, but, she is pro-life you guys, not!  

MM probably thought people were talking about the new royal baby to rub it in that she is childless, since everything has to be about her.

If Whoopi saves the Valley Girl voice just for mocking Meghan, once an episode would be fine with me!

There might be some nice things on there, I don't know.  I have occasionally been tempted to order something, but never did.   I object to the way it's presented -  here's an item we all know is worth about $15.  But we'll SAY it's "regularly $30", but TODAY it's half price.  I'm not that easily fooled.

Preach. I am stunned that people fall for that. I had the tv on another show -maybe Sarah's show? I saw they were doing the same schtick over there with over enthusiastic promotion of garbage products that were slashed to half price.

Captured it, just as obvious as it was this morning. 

[geekburger]

Sunny was on fire today again.

agreed with the poster up thread who said something has happened between she and Megan. They were  series and drinking buddies and now...not so much. For now at least. It’s why MM was cozying up to Joy.

I actually think Meghan will be nice to Jill Biden, only because Meghan loves Joe.

But she will make it all about herself and her father, yet again.

Ok, I agree there's a lot of stuff I would never need at any price, especially the crap hawked by perky, hyper Greta Monahan. But sometimes (ok, rarely) the Oprah edition has some nicer, higher-end things. 

Yesterday it was Wolf leather jewelry cases. A friend has one she bought at Pottery Barn and the larger ones go for at least $300-$500. No way would I pay that, but VYD had great prices. I did my internet research first, and no one could touch them, Amazon included. So I ordered an XL one for $99, free shipping no tax. Stated retail $445 might be high but really not off-base for this brand. Can't wait to get it!

Another thing I bought before was Peepers reading/sunglasses for half-price. $11 vs. $22 on their website, also totally worth it.

THE YELLING over everyone from Meghan right now!

And the constant looking up at her own image....  and btw - Stevie Nicks is from Sedona!!!!!  

[Cementhead]

And then because Meghan is yelling, everyone else has to start yelling and then Whoopi is yelling the loudest and I cannot hear anything anyone is saying!  All of this over a 'Is Madonna old?'  discussion.  Really not something worth getting so worked up over.  Cripes.  Meghan gets SO worked up over every topic!  "OMG, I LOVE STEVIE NICKS!!!  OMG, I LOVE HER!"

I haven't watched yet. But wanted to add Stevie Nicks is of course from Arizona.  

I also love Stevie Nicks,  I'm sure Meghan's loves for her is only because she's from Arizona.

What did he say? I cannot bear to watch him for long. Plus, his show gave a certain person free publicity. I do think that he and Mika had a beautiful wedding from the pictures that were posted online..

Mostly agreeing with Joy that the Reps in office are sniveling ass kissers who have zero integrity.

Whoopi still has a horrible cough.  She is coughing a lot today.

I love Joe!  He does like to talk- a lot!  But I learn a lot from watching their show.   They have many different political views, and often as many as 5 different people at the table.  I have yet to see anyone on that show scream over each other, insult each other , or almost cry.  In the commercials for the View, Meghan says anyone who wants to achieve the next level in politics must come on their show. I think Morning Joe is that show

Not sure if Dan Crenshaw was worthy of 3 segments on this show.  He's not running for President, and doesn't have a book to sell.  And he wasn't that terribly interesting.  

He started out OK, but the more he talked the less interesting I found him.  His stats were starting to sound shady (either made up or taken out of context), and I'm glad Sunny pushed back.   And why is context important when discussing Trump and Russia.  But not important when discussing Rep. Omar's statements?    

And yes, Whoopi mocking MM was definitely a highlight.   

His stats were governmental stats. Where did Sunny get her stats that supposedly debunked them? She shouldn’t have treated a guest that way unless she actually was able tocite specific studies or stats debunking them. To me it just came off as Sunny being very rude.

The thing about Joe is that once in a while his suppressed contempt for Democrats comes out loud and clear. I do agree with you that his panel is awesome and he has wonderful topics. I am still upset by the free publicity that was given until his association with that person came back to haunt him via Mika.

What I noticed was how quiet Meghan got (fiddling with her hair, drinking her coffee) when Joy and Sunni were talking about being from Brooklyn and the Bronx, respectively. I was wishing she'd try to jump in with something about being from the "mean" streets of Arizona. 😁

[debbie311]

I can understand how some are irritated by Joe.  He does like to hear himself talk.  But there have been many mornings when he said exactly what I was feeling, and I could feel his disgust and anger, and while it doesn't exactly give me hope, at least I know there are some in the media who are as outraged as I am.

She did say that Joe Biden would go all Delaware on Trump yesterday. I am trying to understand what does that mean to go all Delaware on somebody.
