Is Whoopi Goldberg leaving The View? According to The Wrap, the co-host may be departing from the ABC talk show.
Goldberg began co-hosting The View in 2007.
Apparently, Goldberg has told those close to her that she will be leaving when her contract ends at the close of the current season. However, nothing official has been announced, and ABC has already renewed the chat show for season 20.
In that announcement, executive producer Candi Carter singled out Goldberg as an essential part of The View‘s panel:
It’s an honor to be part of the extraordinary legacy built by Barbara Walters, the exceptional, funny and smart women at the table led by Whoopi Goldberg, and a terrific team behind the scenes. Every day is a thrill.”
What do you think? Do you watch The View? Do you think Whoopi should leave or stay?
The whole show needs to go.
I would very much like Whoopee to stay. But it’s her life and she deserves to live as she sees fit. I would miss her terribly and probably no longer watch the show.
If Whoppi leaves I will stop watching the show and so will my friends. I was not thrilled with Jedadiah Beli but I have to agree with other people that Megan seems to be condescending and her body language makes it appear that she thinks she is better than others.
Megan grew up not wanting for anything
I am not thrilled with Megan McCain. She seems to be antagonist and a little condescending toward Joy. I thought Jedadiah had a lot more personality and got along with everybody better.
I always watch the view. The ladies are honest, and if you listen you will learn.
Love this show they speak for all of us who dislike#45 so get over it all u lovers of him so if u do not like what u hear hey turn the channel…you go lady’s please speak ur mind …..
I stopped watching the View during the election and return of Joy. They are constantly talking over each other. Everyone speaks as if they know better than the other person. The show used to be informative not putting down people and their views. I frankly don’t care what an actors view is as they don’t live my life. They don’t have the same needs or view the average person has.
To me they are an embarrassment the way they behave.
Barbara you need to bring on people to make this a class act again.
I would like to see a change in cast starting with Joy Behar. She has the biggest mouth on there. Mean, nasty, no passion to other people. Keep Whoopie, Sara Haines and Sunny Houston. The rest get rid of them. All they do is put people down and are at several times unfeeling etc. Barbara Walters where are you? Your show stinks right now. Get rid of Bila also.
I wish they (the ladies ) would quit talking over each other and interrupting. I feel Miss Bila should leave. This could be a much better show with some work. It is hard to listen to most of the time.
I don’t watch every day as I used to, but I happened to turn it on today, may 12,2017, and noticed whoopi was not in the opening segment, and not on the panel..it appears joy is now the “lead’ person..the other 3 ladies seem to change frequently so that is not as noticeable..the show was not really intended to be just a makeup/cooking/moms type show, but it was to be a mixture of many things, including current topics and politics..i don’t see why comments or opinions about trump and his campaign or his presidency should be off limits..granted,this is not… Read more »
Whoopi should move on. I truly believe the show if it can make it should do a overhaul. It used to be my favorite show. Whoopi and Joy are unbelievable, they are so against our new President, Trump. And guess what? I wasn’t voting for him until I watched the view. Because of all the attacks on President Trump, it made me take a closer look at him! I voted for him! Where is Barbara? Just not the same. At our Country Club Sat night The View came up, everybody was making fun of the women. I can’t repeat what… Read more »
If Whoopi leaves the show won’t be any good. The one to leave should be Jedihah Beli she is annoying and talks too much.
I wish they would get rid of Jediah she is so bias, and some of the things she say about minorities is bordering on racism
Thy all need to leave. Surprised at Sara Haines. She is getting like the rest of them. But she should stay. The rest clean house.
whoopee and joy make the show. I WATCH EVERY DAY: I THINK JEDIDAH IS VERY CLOSED MINDED ” SARA HAINES IS A JOY TO WATCH VERY LEVAL HEADED THANK YOU
I totally agree with Jan W. I love the diversity of the panel – in age, race, political views, and backgrounds. The View rocks! Did not know if Meghan McCain was going to work out, but she is an excellent balancing voice and not afraid to speak her mind. I hope she stays a long time. Love Whoopie and Joy! I watch whenever I can. Barbara W.’s original creative vision still works for me!
Whoopie is the reason I watch, she is very intelligent, wise and emoathetic.
Candace no loss, she is a spoiled woman who does not understand the “real” world.
She should go. Obnoxious. Over talks others, thinks her opinion is always the right one. I feel she is intimidating to other panelists. Enjoy when she is off.
As i would hate to see her leave .She would be greatly missed.I think there is nobody that can take her place. I am a great fan.I hope she changes her mind. I hope Candice Cameron Bur e comes back.
