I think them losing Joy is a big loss……but as far as Elisabeth….it’s about damn time! I have NEVER been a fan of hers. Bring back Lisa Ling and get rid of Elisabeth…LOL

Well, even-tho Joy Behar said;
” You reach a point when you say to yourself, ‘Do I want to keep doing this?’ There are other things on my plate I want to do — I’ve been writing a play, I’ve been neglecting my standup.””

I don’t believe it, nope and I think they backed Joy into a corner and ABC has another of their firing conspiracies going on to let her go..
She is not telling the truth! why she is leaving, nope, it’s ABC and the producers of the view in a conspiracy to ruin the View.
Can’t trust a word they say !

((LOL sarc.. 🙂

The View needs a change. Too much talking over each other and half of the time, it sems the hosts do not like each other. That is fine for behind the scenes, but it shouldn’t be that obvious on the screen.

I think its time for this show to call it a day. Barbara Walters is long past retirement. Watching a group of women bitch about politics they know NOTHING about is embarrrassing and absurd day after day. I hope Elisabeth could go on to more serious journalism. Sherri can act or do comedy, as can Whoopi. As for Joy, i suggest a LONG retreat into menopause OFF camera.

I would say replace it with our lost soap but really do not trust ABC.The Veiw has seen its better days years ago.The salurated talkers have taken there toll.Seems three more next year.ABC line up is all talk and cooking except for GH.Seems like they would see people are being turned off by non stop talk show.Katie is struggling in the young demo so why isn’t she cancelled.Other shows are cancelled for this reason.

This show would not be missed by me. They are all annoying. Just the sound of Joy Behar voice is annoying. I really do not understand why so many people watch this show. They are bunch of uneducated people giving their opinions about things. Barbara is the only person worth listening to because she has lived long enough to have experienced many things in life. “The Talk” is even worse. I have decided that the people who watch these shows have no choice, they don’t have cable.

I quit watching the View 5 years ago because of Elisabeth. I enjoy intelligent conversation when people have different opinions. But Elisabeth was shrill and rude. She always seemed to have a chip on her shoulder. I have tuned in from time to time but as soon as Elisabeth went into one of her shrill rants I would change the channel. I really liked Joy. If Elisabeth leaves and they bring in some good replacements I will consider viewing again. Sheri could go to . She is just fluff. The Talk is fluff the View needs to go back to intelligent panelist.

I used to love the View. Watched everyday. I stopped about 2 years ago because of Elizabeth. I got tired of her b.s., her perfect life, her perfect children etc, etc.. She just doesn’t know when to shut up. I get it that this was the whole point of the show different people different views. But she is just to over the top. . I would get so pissed it was just stupid so I stopped watching. I am however very sad to see Joy go, She is a very funny and smart lady. She will be missed. I will watch again until Joy leaves and then I will stop again until the high and almighty Hasselbeck is gone.

I personally do not mind Elizabeth. I just believe that no matter everyone’s personal beliefs each side (liberal and conservative) should be heard. I do not believe Elizabeth is any more “extreme and right wing” than Joy and Whoopi are left wing, and in my opinion, not that I watch regularly, that’s sort of what makes the show interesting.

Love Joy Behar, will miss her! Good riddens to hasselbeck tho’.

I didn’t care for Joy Behar. I like Eliz. I think they should close the show. It has had its run.

Wow Michael biased much? You don’t talk about Joy Behar’s extreme liberal views.
Elizabeth was never vile and mean spirited in her opinions like Joy was. Liberals love
to be tolerant and open-minded until you disagree with them. I know that there are people on both political parties that are awful but let’s be honest, If you’re liberal you can be as hateful as you want in the media and get away with it. For example a certain general hospital star uses her twitter account to vilify republicans, bully Bristol
Palin and talk about wanting to physically hurt Sarah Palin with no backlash. But when another actress says she supports a republican for president she’s stupid, evil racist, homophobic when those accusations are totally unfounded. It’s so hypercritical.

I think Joy has outgrown The View, having hosted 2 of her own shows on prime time. I loved her on her HLN show. I don’t mind Elizabeth, but can understand if audiences were not warming to her conservative convictions. I actually only watch because of Whoopi and Sherrie.

I’d be happy for Elizabeth to leave. Her shrill voice makes me cringe. Don’t care what her views are; it’s the presentation that makes me switch the channel.

Joy and Whoopi are the only two co-hosts to tune in for, in my opinion. I’ve always found Joy hilarious, especially when Barbara Walters and Sherri Sheperd are so dull, it’s nice to have her boisterous personality, along with Whoopi’s, to keep things lively. Elisabeth is horrific, I don’t know know why she was ever even hired to begin with, let alone how she lasted this long.

I actually HATE Elizabeth. Her uninformed and biased rants based on Fox news talking points have made me unable to tune in. I haven’t watched since Rosie left.

Joy Behar was the only reason I would tune in to “The View” about once a week. Elizabeth Hasselbeck, for a conservative prude, really wasn’t that bad.

I mean she wasn’t wanting to de brain wash all gay people like Michelle Bachman, Rick Perry, Rick Santorum and all the other Repubs. So in my book Liz wasn’t too awful.

Never really watched, but my mom did, and stopped watching when this idiot appeared. Elizabeth is just too extreme. I doubt she’ll be missed by many. I’d rather see the show be cancelled though.
