It was made official this morning by ABC, and brought to light by Deadline.com yesterday that the search is over for the women that will comprise the new panel of the revamped The View set to premiere on Monday, September 15th (11AMEST)!
Joining moderators Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie O’Donnell will be Do the Right Thing actress Rosie Perez and political commentator Nicolle Wallace. They who won the spots after a search for the ladies to round out the panel upon the exits of Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy.
The new EP of The View Bill Wolff said of the hires: “These are powerful and accomplished women from different walks of life who have had amazing personal and professional experiences. Each brings incredible perspective and information to the table. This mix of smart, vibrant and energetic women is unlike anything else on daytime television.”
“I am beyond thrilled, honored and completely surprised that I’ve been asked to join The View,” said Perez. “Knowing that I’ll be in the company of Whoopi, Rosie and Nicolle, three very smart and engaging women that I have an immense amount of respect for, makes it even more unbelievable. The opportunity to connect with our nation’s audience on a daily basis… icing on the cake! Very happy.”
“I am honored to join the tradition of compelling conversations that has been the signature of The View for the better part of two decades,” said Wallace. “I have watched The View for many years and now to be seated alongside three women that I have admired is both humbling and incredibly exciting.”
So what do you think of a panel consisting of Whoopi, Rosie and Rosie, and Nicolle? Does it interest you more than in recent years … or not at all? Weigh-in!
who, what?
makes no difference to me…
Then why did you come here?
Trust me. Getting the right people is a big announcement.
Here because we like Soaps, not talk show trash. BIG ANNOUNCEMENT is “Did we hit the lowest common denominator”???
Personally, I would love to see a panel consisting of Lindsay Lohan, Miss New York from Flavor of Love, Theresa Guidice and Honey Boo Boo’s Mom.
It never interested me…a group of catty women who talk over each other and their guests…arguing over whose beliefs and opinions are better…no thank you!!!
I heard for a while they were considering adding a male to the panel…I guess no guy wanted to sign up that HELL… LOL! Seriously can you even imagine?
Rosie isn’t that common of a name, so to end up having two of them on one panel– what are the chances of that? LOL.
I think there is nothing wrong with these choices, but I do feel the format itself is running it’s course. It wouldn’t matter who they chose because I think viewers are losing interest. Frankly I believe daytime talk needs an new angle to keep the genre vibrant. The Talk was that new angle when it first debut, but after all these years and copycats that have pop up it is time to find a new way of talking in daytime.
I hadn’t thought of that, Mary. Two Roses? I guess that beats having two Thorns.
I will be tuning in :
Whoopie
Rosie O
Rosie Perez
and I don’t know the Nicole Wallace
I had hoped the 4th person joining the celebrated panel… would be… Jennifer Tilly
I still hope this…. should Nicole Wallace not work out
would be an AMAZING time… well spent
I thought Brooke Shields might have been a good choice.
This might be promising–maybe I will give The View another chance. I have not seen it in years.
Nicole Wallace worked for George W. Bush. So she seems to be the “republican” of the group.
LOL Just try to get the weakest “republican” vioce possible
i like the new panel, i’m not familiar with nicole, but looking foward to seeing how things play out. they could still use a fifth member, wish they bring back joy.
I will still watch the view, but the ratings better increase or the view will be cancelled. Rosie Perez will be great on the view. Good luck ladies, you will need it.
I will be SHOCKED if that show lasts more than this season. It was terrible before Barbara left the show, and even with her clout and professionalism, she couldn’t carry it any longer. Out of curiosity, people will tune in just to check it out….for a while.
The show literally gave me a headache… women screaming over one another, many times over nonsense. The mere fact that TPTB wanted Rosie O back only means one thing…they are only looking for ratings and will do anything to draw an audience. Perhaps during November sweeps they can ask D Trump in as a guest so he and Rosie O can tear into one another… just disgraceful and embarrassing.
I cannot imagine, under any conditions, that Barbara W is proud of what this show has become. Nicolle Wallace, a very sharp conservative commentator, must never have seen this show if she thinks it has intelligent compelling conversations, she is in for a real shock! It may be a career killer for her in the end.
LOL… it’s saying something when people would prefer watching Hoda & Kathlee Lee and their nonsense over the View.
errrrrr…I kinda like Hoda and Kathy Lee…they’re a fun, good-natured team…sometimes catch em at 2am when they replay what aired during the day.
I WOULDN’T WATCH THIS SHOW IF IT WAS THE ONLY SHOW ON.Doesn’t matter who is coming on.
TRUST ME…if this WERE the only show on … You me and the whole of AMERICA would be watching…DAILY…for lack of anything else…so…that’s actually quite silly to say under any circumstance. Geez..it’s just a group of women on TV stating opinions..trying to be heard..and interviewing all sorts of people. But rest assured your capitalized statement was heard by someone…now breathe in…holddddd…release…go on with your day.
You go ROSIE PEREZ…you deserve it. This lady has fought for recognition her whole career in a crowded field of actresses…glad you get to shine on The View..CAN’T WAIT….
Rosie Perez has made a number of appearances on public radio and is very deep and impressive, she doesn’t even use her “character” voice, I bet she will be a pleasant surprise. Whoopie and Rosie O are legends, I think one very young woman would have been cool to add to the panel…Ms. Wallace has a conservative vibe–fine–but some fine-tuning is still needed so we can tune in with the joy THE TALK is now bringing!
Ugh Count me Out! I quit watching a Long time ago when Joy was there with her nasty mouth. I Can’t Stand Rosie Odonnel so no way will I watch it now!
No interest in previous seasons, no interest now. Women talking trash with no intelligent viewpoint. Typical Talk Show.
It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.
In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.
However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS
Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.
Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall. It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.
With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.
So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.
Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.
