‘The View’ To Announce Replacements
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Rumors,
For months now, our view of The View has been constantly changing. A long roster of guests have helped to help fill the seat once occupied by Star Jones Reynolds. And occasionally, Whoopi Goldberg has sat in the first seat left cold by Rosie O’Donnell.
The guessing game should end next week when producers are expected to announce permanent replacements. Frequent seat-warmer Sherri Shepherd is finally expected to move from contract to permanent status. (As many times as she has spilled her life story to those ladies, I would be incredibly upset if she did not get the gig). As for the other slot? That has Whoopi’s name written all over it.

That was Star’s last appearance on The View. Of her new show, Star commented, “This is the perfect time in our culture to see how the law, politics and entertainment come together. Some people say it has been on a collision. I say it has been connected.”
