The View Being Adapted Into a Scripted Miniseries
Vulture ^ | May 14, 2020 | Rebecca Alter

Posted on 05/14/2020 1:21:15 PM PDT by EdnaMode

Bombshell is quaking. The Morning Show is quivering in its boots. Somewhere in Rachel McAdams’s house, a poster for Morning Glory just spontaneously fell off the wall. Yes, Ramin Setoodeh’s best-selling book Ladies Who Punch: The Explosive Inside Story of ‘The View’ has been optioned to be adapted into a scripted TV miniseries. Variety reports that the tell-all, which features unprecedented levels of access and interviews with “nearly ever host” of the long-running ABC roundtable daytime television series, sold its screen rights to ex-Lionsgate president Erik Feig’s production company, Picturestart. So it’s time to start fantasy-casting what will surely be a remarkable female ensemble, including Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie O’Donnell, Star Jones, Joy Behar, and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Best-case scenario, we stage a raid on Ryan Murphy’s stable of talent to get Patti, Jessica, and Angela in on this. Otherwise, are Fred Armisen and Kenan Thompson available?

1st episode: “Orange man bad”

2nd episode: “Orange man bad” is a nazi

3rd episode: “Orange man bad” is a nazi and so are the people who voted for him

and so on.

With the right director this might be entertaining. What say we let James Woods direct this? :)

I would love to have Whoopie Goldberg tell us what names she would have given to the six children she slaughtered in her abortions. I think that would be wonderful.

Louie Anderson should be cast as Rosie O’Donnell.

What if they made a miniseries and no one watched it? I don’t even know any libtards who watch it and I live in CA. I wouldn’t invest my money in this venture.

What the Hell, the British made a musical about Jerry Springer.
The View makes a strong case for repealing the Nineteenth Amendment.

The View scum are loathsome subhuman filth. Unfortunately,they captured the Suburban vote of Daves and Karens successfully.

Who in hell would watch it? I haven’t suffered any. Well, a couple of times I walked by when Elizabeth Hasselback was saying something and maybe briefly glanced at her.

They could make it to a cartoon. Imagine the view stars as the member of the animal kingdom that best represents them. Hippos, snakes, poodles, pigs, vultures....the comedy writes itself.

The View is the only show on TV that requires a guest to raise the IQ to average.
