‘The View’ will be a party of five
“The View” table is going to be back at full capacity on Monday. Less than a week after Whoopi Goldberg’s debut, the ABC daytime chatfest plans to introduce a fifth cohost.
Barbara Walters, the program’s grand dame and co-executive producer, said Wednesday that another panelist will officially be named to fill the seat that was vacated by Star Jones Reynolds in 2006.
Since Jones Reynolds’ acrimonious departure, the position has been filled by a series of guest hosts, including comedian Sherri Shepherd, widely viewed as the front-runner for the job.
