Yes, Greg and Eric are usually great. The women are so-so; Dana is a bit predictable as a "mainstream" Republican and Kimberly/Andrea are OK, but not outstanding.

Beckel is just revolting. I usually turn it over to something else when his segment begins.

My wife made the key insight on "The Five" -- it is simply a conservative version of "The View", right along with a token liberal for laughs and to serve as a punching bag (Beckel), just as Elizabeth Hasselbeck is the token conservative on her program.

Hadn't thought of that. It is kind of like The View.

Can you imagine the ratings of a show that consisted of 4 Conservative women and one token Lib?

I think the ratings for that show would be through the roof.
