Now that the cast of ABC's The View have had enough time to adjust to the sudden shakeup of Rosie O'Donnell's leaving, word has it that they are all the more happy. According to the latest gossip news updates, everyone from the producers to the crew are walking around with a little more pep in their step now that the retired talk show host has finally left again. In fact the remaining co-hosts, Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie Perez and even conservative Nicole Wallace all came together as one to support Saturday Night Live's decision to poke fun at Isis, without resorting to verbal fisticuffs or name calling
It is doubtful that anyone at The View felt confident enough to start openly celebrating Rosie O'Donnell's departure at first, but now that it everyone has had time to wrap their minds around it, it appears a party may be in order.
According to a behind-the-scenes production source that spoke with the NY Daily News, everyone that works on the show has been enjoying their lives a little more now that Rosie O is no longer a part of the picture:
"The show is running much smoother now...There's much less negative resistance now.
"Whoopi is much happier. Nobody is walking on eggshells anymore, and the whole show is much lighter."
Without the divisive League of Their Own actress on the set to gum up the works, the remaining ladies were even able to come to a consciences regarding the recent satirical Isis sketch on Saturday Night Live.
After the now undisputed moderator, Whoopi Goldberg, reminded everyone of the tissue paper thin line delineating comedic social commentary and political correctness, Perez and Wallace were falling all over themselves to agree (via The Wrap):
"I've always felt that the best way to get back at boneheads, like ISIS, is to make them the joke."
"The great Charlie Chaplin did it first when he did the movie The Great Dictator where he made fun of Hitler, and there was an uproar about that," Perez said.
"Leave 'SNL' out of it," host Nicole Wallace said. "If comedy is supposed to make us laugh at some of the bleakest things happening in our times, I think they nailed it."
Maybe Rosie O'Donnell and Keith Olbermann can get a show together where they take turns telling jokes and playing Russian roulette.
