The View fans have been left puzzled and frustrated as they tune in only to find that their beloved show has gone on a brief hiatus. With Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, and the rest of the crew taking a week-long break, viewers are wondering why this happened and when new episodes will resume.
Why The View is on break
This unexpected pause comes after the hosts faced a whirlwind of topics ranging from Joe Biden’s debate performance to an amusing lightsaber skit involving Whoopi Goldberg. As indicated in the research material, I know I’m not a young man, let’s state the obvious,… I don’t debate as well as I used to, but… I know how to tell the truth.
Encore episodes and guest reappearances
Through the week of July 1-5, The View is broadcasting encore episodes featuring interviews with notable personalities such as Jeff Daniels, Tiffany Haddish, George Stephanopoulos, Robert De Niro, Charlamagne Tha God, along with appearances from First Lady Jill Biden and author John Grisham. This means fans will still get some engaging content to enjoy until new episodes air.
When will new episodes return?
Anxious fans won’t have to wait too long. The View is set to return with brand new episodes starting on July 9, 2024. Expected guests include popular figures such as Jenn Tran, Governor Gretchen Whitmer, actor Michael Douglas, and singer Naturi Naughton.
A brief look back
The Viewer ratings for ‘The View’ indicate strong performances over time despite recent fluctuations. The show began in 2023 with an average of 2.105 million viewers per episode. While there has been a noted decrease in viewership compared to previous years, ‘The View’ continues to be a mainstay in daytime television.
A well-deserved break?
The occasional hiatus for popular shows like The View often signifies a much-needed respite for its hosts who tirelessly engage with pressing issues day in and day out. Even producer Brian Teta jestingly acknowledged the cohosts’ frequent requests for vacations in an earlier segment this year.
