The View

There was a time when Whoopi Goldberg and Ted Danson were the hottest, most controversial couple in Hollywood.

Until… until this week anyway, when Ted is playing second fiddle to Glenn Close’s latest Cruella de Vil hatchet-faced villainess on FX’s new Damages, and ABC is leaking the news that Academy Award®-winning Whoopi is about to be named as replacement for Rosie O’Donnell on The View– along with “performer” Sherri Shepherd.

Sherri Shepherd? Sherri, who’s billed far below Andy Milonakis in the new laff fest Who’s Your Caddy?, which opens tomorrow, will get most of the headlines, because she’s fresher than Whoopi, as big and fat as Rosie, looks a little like former View annoyance star Star Jones, and is as nutty and off the mark as little Lizzie Hasselbeck.

Think they were using audience focus groups?Her claim to fame is that she’s married to, and had a kid with, comedian Jeff Tarpley. She almost divorced him after discovering that he was having an affair, but told The View audience on her May 23rd tryout that she and her husband stuck together because Tarpley had a child during the affair and she thought it would be wrong to keep the children apart.

    The View sucks–the only reason to ever watch the show was for Roise.

    Sherri’s actually pretty cool, but I think Whoopi is a pretty dull selection. Baba will keep her under wraps.
