What do you think? Are you a fan of The View TV show? How long do you think the show will last?
Please cancel The View.
The View is my addition. Please return ASAP. I am too old for this. Thanks in advance!!!
I hope it is cancelled, so much negativity not entertaining… can’t watch need to turn channel.
I would love to know how I can get a large baby Yoda like Whoopee has sitting behind her each day. I tape the View every day, love them. Thank you. Jane
I pray The View is not cancelled! It is my go to show better than MSNBC. Woopie does a spectacular job keeping the topics rolling. I would be so sad if they take them off the air. Those na-sayers are not able to handle the “truths” they speak and probably do not like the guests that tell the truth as to what is happening in DC!!! Please do not succumb to the pressure from this group of downers. Stand strong and put back the show! !
I agree with you completely
Used to like the view when Barbara Walters was on it.
Had hopes it was cancelled.
I have enjoyed The View for many years and want it back. All on The View should be free to express themselves & most are very good about NOT being mean about their guests. I have always thought Megan McCain very arrogant & has an attitude of superiority and we should all be aware of her & people like her but many times, I have turned show off when she goes too far. Esp. toward niece of Trump, who is trying to help viewers see him as he has always been. All other guests / speakers display more propriety &… Read more »
Hate the anger & one way thinking & negativity on this rotten show!!
I look forward to watching the view. Smart beautiful ladies who are not afraid of saying how it is with facts to back it up.
Worst show ever on tv! Needs to be cancelled.
I agree it’s needs to be canceled
I have been watching the View for approximately 4-5 years and always looked forward to watching the show before Megan joined the group. I Love Whoopi and Joy and appreciate them sharing their opinion regarding politics . I love Sunny adding her legal knowledge to the group and Sara’s beautiful energy and her unique way of finding the positive in everything. Megan is rude, she interrupts the other ladies and doesn’t allow anyone to share their opinion without her interrupting and pushing her point of view on everyone. She thinks she’s the only person in the group that knows politics.… Read more »
Who died and left Megan boss? Her attitude sucks! She’s rude, mean and offensive. She operates like a drill Sargent. The show has existed for 20 yrs. without her. How dare her remotely suggest, “what she wants too talk about.” She’s neither the director or producer of the, View. At least Jedediah had a heart. Please, “GET RID OF MEGAN!”
This show is contributing to the political divide in our country and Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar are leading it. I have never in my life seen such one sided, biased, political vitriol spewed forth ever in a television show. My wife quit watching years ago. I have semi retired and don’t normally view daytime television, but have tuned into this on occasion to see what all the fuss is about. I think what would make the show more successful in the ratings would be if you had more balanced and objective hosts. You need to present both sides and… Read more »
