It’s been a staple of daytime television for over two decades, but rumors have been swirling that the popular talk-show “The View” might be in trouble. With declining ratings and a controversial past, is this the end of the road for the show?
According to a recent tweet, ABC had removed “The View” from its 2024 roster. But before you start mourning the loss of your favorite daytime talk-show, we’re here to set the record straight: it’s all just a rumor.
A spokesperson for ABC confirmed that the claims are false. “The View” is still going strong, with an average of over 2 million viewers as of May 28, 2023. In fact, in a March media release, ABC announced that the show ranked “No. 1 in Households and Total Viewers among all network and syndicated daytime talk shows and news programs.”
But the show hasn’t been without its controversies. In the past, it has been criticized for its fiery debates and heated arguments between co-hosts. In 2018, co-host Meghan McCain was widely criticized for her comments on the show about Representative Ilhan Omar.
Despite these controversies, “The View” has remained a fan favorite, with a loyal following tuning in every day to watch the latest news and hot topics being discussed.
So for all the fans out there, don’t worry – “The View” is here to stay. And with its continued success, it looks like it will be around for a long time to come.
