Is the best television can offer is rehashing the same lass boring fools like Rosie over and over? Are we completely out of fresh talent?
No, but she IS a member of the club. People like Rosie and Ellen DeGeneres may be past their expiration date, but they have the entertainment industry equivalent of the Order of Lenin, and it comes with a lifetime pass. Remember the marginalia who were constantly trotted out on shows in the 1950's and 1960's even though nobody could remember what in blazes they had done recently?
Think of it as blacklisting in reverse...
...in overdrive...
... and turbocharged...
