ABC recently announced the hit daytime talkshow, The View, will return to its New York City studio on Tuesday, Sept. 7 @ 11:00am ET, for its 25th anniversary season.
The View begins its season long silver anniversary celebration when the co-hosts return to the studio and the iconic Hot Topics table. Whoopi Goldberg – who serves as the shows moderator – and co-hosts Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines will host together in-studio for the first time since March 2020. Political commentator Ana Navarro continues in her role as guest co-host, making regular appearances throughout the season.
“25 years is such an incredible milestone,” said executive producer Brian Teta. “We have so much planned to honor this amazing platform that Barbara Walters created. I can’t think of a better way to kick off that celebration than by welcoming the co-hosts back to the iconic View table and to have them in front of a live studio audience again. We have some truly exciting plans to celebrate this anniversary all season long. We’ll be inviting back all of our legendary lineup of former View co-hosts to guest as well as ‘taking a little time’ to find our next permanent cohost to join the panel.”
The View has seen 22 co-hosts during its 25 years on-air. The women who formerly held a seat at the table will visit “The View” on Fridays to help celebrate the show’s milestone. Former host, Star Jones, will return to guest co-host for the first “Flashback Friday” to talk about her nine-season run as one of the show’s original hosts, Friday, Sept. 10.
The show will continue to search for a replacement for former host Meghan McCain after her departure at the end of season 24. Throughout the season, the show will welcome conservative voices to guest co-host starting with former Utah congresswoman Mia Love premiere week. Additional guest co-hosts appearing in the coming months include Condoleezza Rice, S.E. Cupp, Carly Fiorina, Eboni K. Williams, Mary Katharine Ham, Alyssa Farah, Cameran Eubanks and Gretchen Carlson.
On Sept 14, The View will debut Behind The Table, a special podcast series from ABC Audio featuring former and current co-hosts for an extraordinary look inside the talk show that has been making headlines since Barbara Walters first uttered the phrase, “I had this idea for a show.” From the exclusive interviews with celebrities, newsmakers and politicians to the behind-the-scenes stories and their Twitter-trending conversations on-air, nothing is off limits. New episodes to post weekly.
