"The View": Week of 7/8/2019


Jaded

Recommended Posts

2 notes here folks:

1. Let's take any further in-depth discussion of Meghan Markle and other Royals to the thread dedicated to them.

2. This show does get into politics, and we allow discussion of things as they directly relate to show content, but we've gotten too far afield. Please keep any discussion of any political people or entities strictly related to how they were discussed on the show. Everyone who posts here needs to review the Politics Policy, please.

Don't let Joy hear you say that. 😉

Or me!   In our day (Joy's and mine) "badly" was an adverb ... it described some sort of action.  These days it IS actually accepted as an adjective in some circles, so "I feel badly" is incorrect and jarring only to those of a certain age and education.

This guy is trying to feel something "badly," as in (maybe) groping.FeelingBadly.thumb.png.b2dec82acffef02e76979e3c8f1fa7a4.png

True, AND some of us "old folks"  can't figure out the damn phone and how to switch from taking a photo of what's in front of you and taking a selfie.  (speaking only for myself, of course)

Expand  

Yes, but when you open the camera it doesn’t go to selfie mode. He consciously did this. Getting into selfie mode is when the “old folks” struggle. Myself included.

YES! Kamala~! I’m surprised she came back on The View this soon, actually, considering how obvious they are that they’re in Biden’s pocket.

Just to be clear, I’m only talking about The View’s bias for and against certain candidates, not politics in general. There have even been articles about the fact, although I’m not sure if they were posted in the media thread or not.

I am loving Sunny “The Freezer” Hostin, for not even glancing Meghan’s way even once for the whole week. 🥶

Expand  

lol, me too. I've paid more attention to Sunny this week than I ever have. And she didn't disappoint. It's so cold in that corner that Meghan's gonna need a parka.

The TP thing with her husband, the looking under her lashes, pretending to be coy, just bugs me. She's a bright woman, I think they all are, but I guess we all like who we like..

Expand  

Sarah, you are so not alone....Sunny annoys the fuck outta me and if I were Whoopi I'd be brusque with her all the time too.

You can add me to that list. Sunny drives me up the wall. But seeing her shut out Meghan this  week made me like her just a little tiny bit.

However , to be fair, if she was doing it to anyone else I'd think she was being an idiot. The fact that it's Meghan , makes it ok and is getting funnier by the day.

I'm not crazy about any of the hosts, but I appreciate the discussions on the show. Sunny is an  awesome legal and political analyst, but is irritating at lighter topics. She puts on an act that combines naivety and lunacy--not a good look. Still, I like her better than I like Meghan, and I really want to see the moment when Sunny goes off on her.

I love Sunny for bringing the interview back to policies instead of a long-running sympathy train for Joe Biden. And Kamala's response made me laugh, because she must've felt the same way. She soldiered through their BS very well, imo.

Expand  

Omg this. I was getting pissed. I like Biden too. But Damn, they are running for President.  Biden was not attacked he was schooled big difference.  Kamala has every right to fight for the position to get the nomination. She wasn't even rude Biden. 

If I never hear the phrase cannibalize again, I'd be so freaking happy.

I wonder if whoopi thinks of Barbara Walter's when she spaced out on camera,  just asking. 

I'm disappointed we didnt get Ana's book picks.

Kamala had to talk fast in her last segment and no Ana books. 

Expand  

Kamala's delivery bothers me. She pauses for dramatic effect and has a certain tone (whiny?) that irritates my ears. Also, she's too wordy. She took four minutes to tell us that Acosta is bad and predators should be prosecuted. Duh! There were a couple of times when Whoopi had to hurry her to make her get to the point.

Speaking of Whoopi...how dare she take on the legal disclaimer. That's Sunny's job. And then one minute later Sunny is the one gushing the loudest and clapping the hardest about Whoopi's People Magazine photo. Puh-leeze 🙄 . I want to see Sunny give Whoopi the cold shoulder, too!

That is so true.  It's embarrassing for everyone.

I think Sunny is well aware of the Power Behind Meghan (Disney, ABC, AND Whoopi) and she'll bide her time.  Still, I want to see that too.  Maybe THAT would be a way for SNL to include Sunny.

I would have much rather heard Ana's book choices than another View Your Deal.

Expand  

But, BronzzzzzeDog, how would The View ever afford to put on the show if they didn't sell their little trinkets?

I agree, she spent way too much time on Acosta when she could/should have been addressing other questions about her candidacy. I've also noticed that she looooves to talk about her background as a prosecutor. Ok ok we get it, you used to be a prosecutor. Now how about telling us your plans for the presidency.

They should have done Ana's book choices instead of having Kamala stay for a third segment; she had to talk so fast it was hardly worth it.  She was great in her first two segments, though.

Maybe Ana will get to tell us her books on a future show, since I assume they have the hardback copies to give away to the audience.

Expand  

I wonder if they will pretape her book choices while she’s there today and air the segment next week when they have a few extra minutes to spare.

I haven't been watching. I tuned today to see. Sen Michael Bennet. Stuck around for the rest of the show. 

Lol, Sunny really is giving Meghan the cold shoulder it so obvious 😄

Meghan skipping the KC interview hmmm, interesting. 

Meghan's first book choice wtf?🙄

Watching Sunny ignore MM was worth having to hear John McCain name once again being brought up.

Expand  

I liked Michael Bennett.  I found him thoughtful and articulate.  He explained his ideas and i liked them.  He was like if Biden and Buttigieg had a baby.  With the wisdom and temperment of both combined.  He was well prepared.  Now Kamala today..go girl!!  She would definitely get my vote if the election were today.  I liked all her answers. Again thoughtful and articulate. A bit of the eager beaver, but i took that as excited to be on the show and wanting to get all her stuff out before 'cutting to the next comm lol'.  I like her a lot though.

Is there a pop up version ?  Lol

Expand  

I looked up reviews of the Crawdads book to see if her blue-card writer had plagiarized someone else verbatim and saw that there are a few "summary versions" of the book for sale - for teachers or book-club leaders to direct discussions.  LOL.

Sunny does the same, I prosecuted, when I was a prosecutor, it drives me cray cray. But Kamala only had  so much time, this Acosta person, is very much in the news, and she had to address it. If not, she would of been asked why not. 

Expand  

Oh I agree, but Sunny's not running for president.

And yet we get another VYD.  I'd much have rather heard Ana's picks instead.  But she might have had to rush and i dont want that so stay next week 

Expand  

Wouldn't it be fabulous if we have all those View Your Deals because Meghan has caused a UUUGE loss of sponsors and ABC needs the coin?  A girl can dream...

Anyone know when the ladies take off for Summer break? 

I need a break from the blond beast.  And I hope against all that she is not there when the new season begins.  For the life of me I can't get how they keep someone who is excessively rude  to all the hosts (at one time or another) except Whoopi, berates the audience and continues to be beyond unprofessional.
