The show started out being a lot more serious. It was interesting to turn it on in the morning and see the various peoples takes on the events of the past day.

Now it is lots of hooting and hollering from the audience, loud music and no decent conversation. Remember that Sherri thought the earth was flat.

How about 1/2 hour soap and 1/2 hour game show?

The talk also started out being more serious and the reason for the show was basically mom issues and now look what it turned into! There can be a mix of fun as well as seriousness.

The show went downhill after Rosie left. During her stay, the viewing audience was probably the largest ever. She doesn't suffer fools easily and that's what I like about her. Same for Whoopi who suffers fools better and is why she is still there, a voice of common sense and reason.

So Rosie left and the show dumbed-down to accommodate Elisabeth and the audience who felt sorry for her. Consequently the show could only have occasional sharply intelligent discussions, few and far between.

Without a major shake-up and return to the previous level of strong views from informed hosts and guests, it was/is a dying program.

I think the best thing to do would be to end the show. It's been on long enough and certainly isn't at the top of the ratings and hasn't been in a long time. I grew weary of them all. Time to move on.
