Why I Loved The View Today...

Because Elizabeth was out!

I'm finding anti-NRA firebrand Rosie's measured, subdued response to the VT tragedy very compelling and riveting. Fascinating to watch Babs try to light a fire under her. Rather than indifferent, Rosie's pragramatic, choosing her battles. I went to the mother's march on DC, remember the sweeping sense of outrage, and now understand Rosie's justifiable desire to focus on what she can do -- with gun control, it's the serenity prayer to the max. The things you cannot change are legion.

Especially with the recent firing of Imus, Rosie has said herself that she will stop talking about her views on the current war and the president on the air. It sounds like this is the first real "discussion" where she is exercising that. Interesting...

The guest co-host was pretty good too.

I loved Aisha Tyler. She should be the new co-host. She's smart, funny, gorgeous, and holds her own with the other women.

I like Sherry Sheperd or Jacque Reid a lot more though to fill the co-host spot when Elisabeth gets fired from the show (wishfull thinking)

I for one am thrilled that Rosie has stopped being so outspoken on the air. It creates an unnecessary amount of tension and un-comfortableness for her co-workers and for the viewers. I much prefer the new Rosie.

I don't think they'd fire Elisabeth. She'll either stay or leave on her own accord when her contract is up. She'll probably wind up doing a Fox show.

I have a feeling Bitsy is preggers. I keep thinking I see a bump.

As long as the ratings are there, Rosie will stay. The minute they dip she is gone.

She might shop around her own show again and wonder if advertisers would welcome her or shy away.

It is silly and scary that Fox would be so overtly against her. When was the last time a news network was against someone? Did Walter Cronkite in the glory days of TV news ever spit on the floor at the mention of Nixon? William Buckley?

Do you know what happens when you let Veal Prince Orloff sit in an oven too long?

I don't think anyone is going to get fired, and actually I shouldn't wish for anyone to get fired, she just frustrates me. But no one is getting fired on The View.

Does anyone watch Rosie's blogs she does before the show? Today's was great with Helene and the writer. It is very good. Helene and Ro get along great.

I don't think she'll temper her opinions. She is just choosing not to revisit this battle. The show was great without Elisabeth. Get rid of that woman! Can't stand her. Surely, they can find an informed conservative who knows how to interview and knows when to be quiet so others can have their say. It was such a breath of fresh air. It was also funny watching Barbara try to rile up Rosie.

and lose the daily potential for become water cooler fodder? yeah, i bet they're praying that elizabeth stays away and rosie stays quiet because everyone knows that in the television business (note that word) it's much better when people are not talking about you than when they are.

I agreed with Rosie's sentiment that we've all become so desensitized following Columbine, 9-11, and the current war. Everything nowadays seems much less shocking.

I couldn't have said it better.

Also I loved guest co-host Whoopi Goldberg, and Rose Mc Gowan was a surprise last week! She had a lot of chemistry with Rosie.

Rosie is hardly holding her tongue. Rather, she's had a change of focus after so much work for gun control went no where. Her reticence on one issue is about abandoning an approach to the issue, not her trying to say less on THE VIEW.

I don't know if there is a term for a girl I would have sex with if I was straight, but Aisha Tyle floats my boat.

Is Aisha an actress?

She was on the last gasp of FRIENDS, yes?

And wasn't she a host of a guilty pleasure trash show, THIRD WHEEL? Or that other one, the title of which eludes me. She's smart, sexy, beautiful -- and doesn't seem to have a niche yet.

Seriously, she'd be damned good on that panel.

I missed it yesterday but it's recorded on my DVR. I'll have to watch it before today's show.

Elizabeth is doing a good job for them - financially speaking. (Which is the only way the powers-that-be do speak). She's bringing people like all of you to the show to see what kind of crap she has to say. Rosie's doing the same with her rants. The only conservative I can think of who might bring in a greater audience would be our Papa. The potential blood bath would have viewers all over the world turning in!

PS - I also hate her. I think she's a horrible addition to the show. She has no idea what she's talking about...just my opinion.

I'm sure they could, but there would probably be no balance to the show. I love Rosie, but at least Elizabeth speaks up and challenges Rosie. I think an informed conservative is a good idea, but Elizabeth allows more people to speak than Rosie ever does, so I'm not sure how a quieter conservative will be an improvement. It will just be more boring.
