Meghan McCain officially departed The View earlier this month, meaning we will no longer be subjected to her bad hair and daily reminders that she is, in fact, John McCain’s daughter.
Though, to be fair, there is something mildly hypnotic about seeing all those reminders back to back:
Seeing as she’s taken to Twitter recently to call Biden “just as chaotic as Trump,” we will not miss her expert analysis on the show.
The ABC daytime panel show announced it was taking “a little time” to replace her, and has opted to bring in a revolving roster of conservative guest co-hosts to join the panel for the upcoming 25th season.
The show returns to its studio for the first time since March 2020 with a live season premiere on September 7, and has confirmed several of the upcoming one-time co-hosts.
Former Utah congresswoman Mia Love (R) will join for the premiere, and will be followed by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, former HP CEO Carly Fiorina, former Fox & Friends co-host Gretchen Carlson, and cable news regulars S.E. Cupp, Eboni K. Williams, Alyssa Farah, Mary Katherine Ham, and Cameran Eubanks.
Former panelist Star Jones will also appear on a new “Flashback Fridays” segment. It’s not clear if other former hosts, including the show’s creator, Barbara Walters, will return.

It’s funny how media keeps pretending to buy the phony P.R. that Meghan McCain “decided” to leave.
stanhope
Because that is what they always do. That cow was on her way out as soon as her protector left his post. Bye cow….mooooooooooo

Im not sure about most of those women but are any of those women conservative? The show will be pretty boring without one.
nitejonboy
Did you read the article ? It says they will be using a revolving roster of conservative guest hosts. And if you’ve ever listened to vapid Gretchen Carlson speak, yes she’s conservative, she’s as brainless as Megyn Kelly. I don’t agree with sexual harassment, but the worst thing the movie BOMBSHELL did was make it look like those two women actually had brains of their own.

Ms.Rice will be well regarded. She’s one of the smartest women on the planet,
nitejonboy
As much as it pains me, I agree with you on that one, she is very intelligent, she just chooses to surround herself by morons.

you’re hysterical.

She’s a lying war criminal, but she’s also pretty smart, I’ll give her that.

Most conniving sociopaths are extremely intelligent.

Barbara Walters will never return she is 91 years old has dementia sits in her wheelchair gazes out the window..doesn’t remember people. A little Google search would tell you that .she left the show in 2014.they can get a monkey anybody is better than Meghan was ..
nitejonboy
She does ?? Thank you, that just made my day. Horrible woman. She deserves it.
nitejonboy
Well if you’re wondering what Meghan has been up to since getting fired from THE VIEW, she’s been spending it all on twitter reporting every single comment that dares to critique her…because I had two twitter accounts, one for my personal and one for my business, and my very restrained comments were both reported and got both accounts suspended permanently, so yeah apparently her dead father ( what was his name again ? Joe ? ), got her a primo Job at Twitter controlling people’s accounts. May she and her father burn in hell.

I’ve read your replies and comment on this thread.
I don’t know who you are.
But, I love you!

For someone that leaned into a the Biden compassion on set during and after her fathers death she sure knows how to bite the hand that feeds her.
Oh yeah! Eadon to seeking elsewhere firing. VIEW fires rarely suggests moving on to other options more often.
I E Star Jones.
Arguing with an aggressive republican agenda, arguing with Whoppi, bitchin with contempt and scorn at every bio on the #45 White House occupant then writing her own tell all babble B S book. Hot Mess.
No one will miss her bi polar like behavior of mania and poor self control. As disciplined as a rabbit on meth!
All over the place and never answering the questions posed to her.
I walked away from View 5/2021. Missed the tantrum like weak bitch slap with Whoopi when she lost it and went to commercial.
Years of audience abuse.
One reckless cra cra republican matching #45 in no self edit button.
Bye Bye Bad Baby Bye Bye!!!

It’s a time to heal for the show, to process and overcome the damage Meghan inflicted, so the rotating host is a good idea for now – it’s premature to commit.
From the list, I was going to say S.E. Kupp, but then someone told me she was a Ted Cruz (eek!) supporter. So strike her.
Anna Navarra’s “let me tell you something” shtick usually amuses, but I guess she doesn’t want to go full-time.
Whoever is selected, I hope the show doesn’t rush into anything, best to wait until the dust has settled.
Does Starr Jones have fans?

“It’s not clear if other former hosts, including the show’s creator, Barbara Walters, will return.”
Walters last appeared publicly in 2016.
She suffers from severe dementia and won’t be back.

Just like the above poster. Barbara Walters has severe dementia and hasn’t been seen in public in 4 years. Her caregivers and family keep her from reading about daily events so as not to further her decline. Its sad. She’s 91.

Me-again is a horrible human being who’s ecstatic about the TX abortion ban even though victims of rape snd incest are forced to bear their assaulter’s baby.
Oh and she called out Queerty as “bullshit”.

Fiorina and Carlson are every bit the tiresome liars/histrionic bigots that Joh McCain’s crotchfruit is. Never heard of the rest.
plazaro1
I truly hope she was fired and that we never have to go through the ordeal of seeing her again.
BLAKENOW
you are boring for saying that, after being on the air for decades and number one. daytime. I think they know what they are doing.
radiooutmike
Babs was truly groundbreaking for a number of reasons.
But her interview style and her handling of some topics were, at best, problematic.
