'The View' slammed for airing 'previously recorded' episode instead of live coverage

It was no surprise that Whoopi Goldberg was nowhere to be seen as she’s often absent on Friday’s episodes

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ABC’s ‘The View’ has never failed to leave their fans furious either due to a confusing banter or because of the hosts' unapologetically odd demeanor. Recently, fans blasted the show after they noticed something in the Friday episode.

‘The View’ host Joy Behar led the panel alongside co-hosts Sara Haines, Ana Navarro, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin on June 2. It was no surprise that Whoopi Goldberg was nowhere to be seen as she’s often absent on Friday’s episodes. But this wasn’t something that left the fans furious, rather it was the fact that the episode had been “Previously Recorded” as flashed on the screen. The viewers are frequently seen frustrated after every segment owing to the show’s annoying changes and of course, the hosts.

‘New to us, but taped’

During the segment, host Joy Behar took her seat and welcomed the audience, adding, “Hello everybody, thank you for coming. Today is Friday and we love Friday, don't we?” She looked gorgeous in a fitted black top and orange cargo pants. Ana Navarro explained to the audience that they are wearing orange to mark the National Gun Violence Awareness Day on June 2. Fans were confused as the words “previously recorded” popped at the bottom left of the screen. One Twitter user wrote, “Good Morning! New to us, but taped”, while another added, “So yeah, this was previously recorded #TheView”. One fan tweeted with frustration over the week’s odd episodes stating, “#theview prerecorded show after an already shortened week”.

A fan reminded others adding, “All Friday shows are PRE-TAPED for the time being. #TheView”, as another wrote the oddity during the segment, “#TheView previously recorded popped up on the bottom left of the screen”. One more user said, “Why did it say "Previously Recorded in the corner of the screen in the opening? You make people think it's a repeat smh”.

This occurred after the fans claimed that Sunny would be better as Friday’s moderator to give Joy Behar a break. Sunny had impressively handled the ringleader Joy and her tone was quite enjoyable.

Whoopi Goldberg’s annoying moment

When it comes to Whoopi, there’s no way that she’d miss any chance to annoy her fans. In a recent broadcast, she was eating during a live stream while her co-hosts discussed former President Donald Trump and the classified documents investigation. When Sunny was reading a legal note, an odd sound could be heard off-camera. As soon the camera moved toward Whoopi, she was seen popping food in her mouth and viewers were not pleased by this. Well, this is what it is when it’s Whoopi.
