“The View” fans had some strong opinions when it came to the former co-host they want back on the show — and it’s a living legend most responders want back the most! Barbara Walters came out on top with 19.6% of the votes. Walters was a staple on the show for the first 17 seasons, appearing on the panel from 1997 until 2014. In a close second place is another “The View” icon, with Meredith Vieira (who’s also an OG but left the series in 2006) landing 19.24% of the votes. Coming in third is the outspoken Meghan McCain, who had 17.81% of respondents choose her as “The View” co-host they want back. McCain announced she was leaving “The View” in July 2021, but if her comments about leaving are anything to go by, we’re guessing she won’t return anytime soon.
On the other end, we have Lisa Ling bringing in 17.45% of the votes after she said sayonara to the show in 2002 after four seasons, while (another who’s vowed never to return!) 16.19% of those asked would like Rosie O’Donnell back. Lastly, we have another OG; Star Jones. Jones nabbed 9.71% of the votes — but it sounds like she’s far too busy to return anyway. “I have so much fun with the girls, but as the new judge on ‘Divorce Court,’ my hands are completely full,” she told Entertainment Tonight in October.
Keep on wishing, Nicki Swifties!
