Part 2/14:
At the heart of ongoing debates about The View is Whoopi Goldberg, a long-standing co-host whose comments and attitude epitomize a disconnect from reality. From her awkward skits to her offhand remarks, Goldberg's presence often feels more like a relic than a relevant voice.
A recent sketch attempted to humorously depict Goldberg as resisting returning from summer vacation—draped on a lawn chair, refusing to get up, still sipping a cocktail. While meant to be comedic, it subtly reveals her true attitude: she clearly dislikes her role on the show and has little desire to engage actively with her co-hosts or viewers. Her chronic misery and disdain cast a shadow over the program's intended lightheartedness, turning it into a platform of grumpy rants rather than engaging discussions.
