This is seriously the stupidest conversation to take place anywhere on television including the Brady Bunch, cable access shows, Charles Barkley on TNT, The Newlywed Game, Joaquin Phoenix on Letterman, Madonna on Letterman, Sharon Stone anywhere, or any episode of Gilligan’s Island. All of that dumbness combined pales in comparison to the shallowness and outright stupidity of this clip from The View.
I know in my heart that someday far in the future when aliens land on a barren earth they’ll dig up some artifacts of humanity and they’ll reach into a cave, their tentacles will just barely miss a copy of Tolstoy’s complete works and they’ll latch on to a DVD of this clip. And they’ll think we are all this stupid.
I mean, seriously. For Joy Behar to think that “Black Friday” is some kind of racist slur and Whoopi saying she was going to go shopping but couldn’t find her underwear drawer. These people should be institutionalized not lionized.
So check it out. It’s a short clip but it’s completely jammed with stupidity, uninterrupted by any intelligence whatsoever.

That is NOT entertainment!

do not watch The View if you are looking for intelligent conversation. This falls under "babble".

I can't bring myself to watch the video. I'll take your word for it.

Despite all its (many, and increasing) other faults, Family Guy nailed the nature of "The View" long ago:

It's like coffee talk. You know, no big whoop.

They make all women that like to "coffee talk" look bad…no way do we sound that ridiculous. We cover kids, family life, the faith, how to keep garbage like The View out of our homes, etc.

It's a group exercise in a political commentary in order to offset the light stuff on the MSM news programs. If anything, miles above Chris Matthews and Keith Olberman. Not even Whoppe Goldberg believes that she has a mind.

Well, considering this is the "intelligentsia" of the left (aside from Elizabeth), what's to be expected? Anyone seriously thing deep thoughts? I'm just amazed at how many people actually waste their time during the day watching this trash.

Actually, Francisco, Family Guy finally had a moment that Conservative Catholics can like:

It's not an offensive clip, guys (like it usually is), so no worries about that.
It is still probably my least favorite show that I still watch. And I only watch it cause… I love cartoons. There. I admitted it.

Whoopi, TMI!

TBH I actually thought Goldberg was just making jokes, at least at the start, and kinda sorta legitimately funny ones too…It was the others who were being interesting about the name 'black Friday.'

Funny commentary Matthew but seriously stop saying EVAH. You sound like a sorority sister.
December 3, 2009 at 2:48 pm
That's what I'm going for.
