ABC MIGHT BRING ROSIE O'DONNELL BACK TO 'THE VIEW'
Big Hollywood ^ | June 30,2014 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 06/30/2014 4:38:04 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Variety's Ramin Setoodeh reports that "The View" is in so much trouble, "rumors are swirling" that Rosie O'Donnell might be brought back.

After a ton of controversy, that included O'Donnell using the program to spread her 9/11 Trutherism with the absurd claim that fire can't melt steel, the left-wing comedian left the show in 2007 after just one season.

Walters has since claimed that "Rosie imploded" and has "emotional problems."

The road to bringing Rosie back is apparently clearer with Walters off the show and other rumors about the potential replacement of "View" executive producer Bill Geddie. Geddie reportedly clashed with O'Donnell throughout her run on the show and even during O'Donnell's one-episode return as a guest back in February.

The 17 year-old talk show's famous revolving door is spinning even faster these days after Walters' exit last month and the news last week that both Jenny McCarthy and Sherri Shepherd are on the way out. This leaves longtime co-host Whoopi Goldberg as the show's sole returnee next year.

Bringing O'Donnell back feels like a desperate move on ABC's part. Oprah's OWN network spent millions a few years ago under the same assumption ABC seems to be working under: that Rosie can save the day and stabilize the bleeding. That experiment was a costly debacle for OWN that lasted only one season.

I had thought MooseChelle was a strong possibility, but it looks like she’s gonna run for Senate in Illinois in 2016 so probably not available.

When I read this, I started hearing the unmistakable “beep...beep...beep...beep” of a large commercial dump truck in reverse.

By all means bring back Rosie O’Donnell.

This way you’ll have both a black and a white fat, obnoxious, overbearing shrew on the show.

Ebony and Ivory.

"rumors are swirling" that Rosie O'Donnell might be brought back.

The folks making that decision are obviously used to smelling farts in elevators.......

I watched the show once when my wife was having outpatient surgery while waiting. This was at least ten years ago and at the time was sure 500 years from now this show would provide evidence of the start of the fall of Western Civilization.

They are attempting to shore up Hillary’s base. Old, insanely liberal and probably lesbian. What’s not to like...

She almost moved to our town last year. She was set to buy Olivia Newton John’s house until some deranged contractor offed himself on her patio. Not great for resale value, but it kept the doughnut in Miami thank God.
