Rosie O’Donnell is still in negotiations with MSNBC to replace Dan Abrams in the 9 p.m. time slot on weeknights. So far there is no reported format for the show or official name, but it will definitely differ from her The Rosie O’Donnell Show which started back in 1996, and will differ from The View, where she spent less than a year. In fact Rosie’s new show would compete in the same time slot as Larry King Live on CNN, and Hannity & Colmes on Fox News. Rosie’s popularity on The View was sustained by her constant attacks on other popular celebrities, much like Lily Allen who attacked Victoria Beckham today so we won’t forget Lily exists. Rosie only has a couple of messages these days, gay rights, end the Iraq war, government conspiracy, and big doses of criticism for everyone except herself. It would be refreshing to see the Rosie from 1996 emerge again. The kinder and gentler Rosie, who was an entertainer, not a hater.

Everyone hates Heather Mills. It’s the underground movement Heather was talking about. The View girls all said exactly the same thing I said here and here. I feel so much better after listening to them vent.

Jessica Simpson will co-host The View while Elisabeth Hasslebeck is on maternity leave, but only on November 15 and 16. The other day Jessica met President Bush, or someone who serves in a high office I forget who. When she walked into their house, like the White House, she said, "I love what you’ve done with the place." Expect a lot of comments like that for two days on The View, plus a lot of blank faced beauty queen waving, and smiling when other panel members ask her questions. Kind of like the Stepford Wives.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck will leave The View next month to go on maternity leave. She’s about to pop out baby number two. She is married to NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck. The couple have a daughter named Grace who is two years-old. It won’t be the same without Elisabeth. Who’s going to provide the conservative balance? Someone will have to temporarily fill her spot. How about Donald Trump, or his daughter Ivanka Trump?

A black loud mouthed, unfunny, ugly as a rhino’s butt, obnoxious, trashy, low class woman with the last name of a Jew has replaced a woman with the exact same qualifications, except the other one was also a lesbian and she didn’t make it till the end of her one year contract, but that doesn’t mean Whoopi isn’t any better or worse. I am referring of course to Whoopi Goldberg who is now the new moderator of The View. My friend has an outstanding reward of $5,000 he’ll pay to anyone who can provide him with an example of Whoopi Goldberg being funny, intentionally. He has yet to pay it out. I think Whoopi won an award for least funny comedian ever. Whoopi was the second to receive the award, Rosie O’Donnell got the first. The smartest girl to ever be on this show yet was the Chinese girl Lisa Ling who quit in 2002. The View is where burned out celebrities go when their career is in the gutter. That show would have a bigger female audience if the producers replaced all the women with a puppet show, and short clips of guys getting kicked in the balls.
