Julie said...

I didn't tape The View until Rosie came onboard. Once she leaves, I will probably stop watching. She is the spice in an otherwise bland stew. I feel sad.

Chin up and put on your Rosie colored glasses. --xxx Joan

Agreed. Someone who speaks the truth on television is rare. You should fill her chair!

Fill her chair with what? --xxx Joan

Joan,I completely agree.I am bereft, that such witty, intelligent, and yes,sometimes outlandishly,SPOT ON,unfiltered truths will no longer be part and parcel to "The View." ROSIE, and the View, were/are my touchtones to female ingenuity, laughter,and pride.I'll miss her!

Joan, I hope the contract that you'll be signing is with ABC and the View! It all clear now...Rosie leaving and Joan back on daytime once again,"Red Carpet" and all! You are both great!

Joanie you know her and we don't. If you give Rosie the thumbs up then thumbs up it must be.

OK Joan, call me shallow, but what is with the "Rosie fest"...your too gernerous. I know that you know she completely trashed you, publicly. Does she understand that women comics owe you and Ms. Diller serious props for paving the way for them?

LOved you on the view but I was dissapointed that you did not speak about your next gig on the red varpet. The view will be fine as long as you fill in!!!!Do it! America loved you at night time in the 70's AND 80's and loved in the daytime in the 90's!!!

Joan, Do the View! Be the next Host! YOU MUST!!! Question: Why are YOU Co-Headlining with Joy Behair IN Atlantic City? What on earth did she do to be a Co with you? Totally Confused in America, Jake

Joy is a very funny woman.  Come out and see us in Atlantic City on July 14 and judge for yourself. --xxx Joan

Uy! Why the heck couldn't ABC just have given her another year. Contract schmontract. The ratings were up 15% for sweeps. ABC is either dumb or censoring. How sad for us all. Your comments said it all. PS. You looked devine and skinny on the View this week. Simply stunning.

Thank you for the compliment, but my weight was us 15% too!  The food in their Green Room is just too good. --xxx Joan

Joan you are so right. Whether you agreed or disagreed with Rosie's point of view, she is the most honest, truthfully person I've seen on TV next to you. I'll miss her on the View for it keep us thinking, discovering, evaluating not many can say that today.

I think it's a sad day that Rosie is leaving. I don't think the view will be the same. Joy is great, Elizabeth YOUNG.. Rosie is a wonderful person, and hate reading how people talk about her.

I'm sad too Joan. Rosie was a breath of fresh air on TV talkshows, as are you. Hey, maybe YOU could fill the gap.

I like her, I think sometimes she outta think twice before speaking but she has a right to her opinion. Certain media types should be bitch slapped for saying she has no right to an opposing view.

Joan, I don't know why you feel sad ---- I had heard her say her say her children were struggling without her. I think she's being responsible. The View & execs were prepared for that and she already has some employement offers when she's ready to jump back in. Would you be filling in for her?

I am with you on the Rosie comments. The View will not be worth watching. Why not co-host more than once every few months? You are the best and I LOVE your jewelery. The old rich snobs in my building stare at it and always ask if it's real. I say "of course". Love you!

I really enjoyed watching The View while Rosie was on! She's open, honest, direct, intelligent.Who knows? She may yet decide to make occasional appearances. Who can blame Rosie if she wants to be with her family? I wish her luck!
