The thing is, this is Hollywood: even negative publicity is 'good publicity', so the negative publicity surrounding Rosie still benefits the show. The View will have a hard time staying in the headlines without Rosie there to create buzz.
If The View really wants controversy and infighting among their hosts, they should consider hiring a male to fill Rosie's spot. I don't think that it even matters what male, just as long as he is willing to keep voicing his opinion no matter how much any/all of the other three disagree.
Norm!
MacDonald, I mean. Oh, man, can you imagine throwing Norm MacDonald in with those lobotomized yentas? They couldn't even handle him in a 30-minute guest appearance. A permanent 5-day-a-week hosting gig would be sure to send every feather ruffling in that hen house!
-- "Better Off Ted," Wednesdays at some time or another at some point or another in the near future. Because we can't all live in mansions and not ever work like the people on "Modern Family."

Let's see if Heroes has the same quality that Lost has in their THIRD season.
Exactly. Lost is still very strong in quality, even though the ratings are down. I don't think the Heroes phenomenon is going to last that long. It'll probably be around for a third season, but it's going to be "The OC 2.0", mark my words.
Exactly. I've been thinking the same thing. Yesterday's heroes was quite disappointing really. I was surprised about how terrible some of the acting was. When the mother saw Peter dead, her reaction was horrible... Nathan pulled it off a lot better. What irritates me about Heroes is that it gives it's bad actors large rolls and limits the good actors- some of them can pull off a lot more then what the writers give them. I think it's losing steam... it's too predictable and it's problem's are too easily fixed because the characters are "immortal".
Linderman sounds like papa smurf, Ted looks like the geiko caveman, I'm sad Peter's bang is gone- I thought his emo hair was cool- it suited him, The painter is obviously not dead (Hiro will go back in time and save him-duh, he was in Peter's future dream where he blows up NYC), Sylar is not frightening in the least and looks like Sid from toy story, how the hell did HRG know that there was a lose pipe in the prison?- seemed all too convenient and why would they place Sylar in a cell like that if they were aware of the problem? The child Micah is a horrid actor- unable to portray any emotion on his face what-so-ever... I don't know, what can I say? it's terrible.
Lost is still a good quality show, very good actors that can pull off even the stupidest of scenes. I wasn't biased when I began watching Heroes at all... nor was I when I began watching Lost (it was actually the first television show I've ever watched because I'm one of those people who thought all tv was stupid and read instead) but I think it's a fantastic show, and it has good writing a lot of memorable lines and actors that pull the show together. Just because it might be in a slow building area, it's going to pick up, I have faith that it'll answer all the questions and I'm really not going to worry that it's not. A lot of people just can't suspend reality anymore and they've "lost" all patients. It's sad, really.
Lost has always been a better show than Heroes, far as I'm concerned.
But I still think this season has had major problems, and the loss of audience was deserved. You don't watch or not watch a show you like because of some other show. You judge a show in relation to its own standards. What would be a good Heroes ep would make for a lousy Lost ep.
