While some surprises can be nice, The View fans were not okay with the network’s latest decisions. Recently, fans expressed their anger over the latest episode that was aired.
Scheduling Shake-Up
Unexpectedly, The View had a major scheduling mix-up that left fans up in arms. When the fans went to watch their regularly scheduled program, they were in for a rude awakening. Unbeknownst to them, the panelists were taking some time off the air. Little did they know, the episode airing was a month-old replay, but fans caught on quickly. Understandably, the sneaky move left many fans raging upon the discovery of the show not being live. Although fans are enraged, the daytime TV network is offering a return date to appease the masses in the meantime.
The View Fans Notice The Bait And Switch
Undeniably, nobody likes sloppy seconds, but The View fans in particular are not having it. Notably, on April 22, an old episode from February featuring Jennifer Lopez was slid into the daytime slot instead of a new one. Crafty as it may be, fans caught the trade-out. After seeing the bait and switch, fans discover that Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin, and Ana Navarro are on “Spring Break” until April 29. Likewise, on Friday, April 19, astute fans noticed the show was a prerecorded new episode. Undeniably, it gave the hosts an early start to their Spring Break. Additionally, according to Entertainment Weekly, the Behind The Table podcast will pause this week as well.
The Network Offers A Schedule During The Absence
However, the network is providing the consolation prize of hand-picked episodes to rerun throughout the week. The View airs weekdays at 10 a.m. CST on ABC.
- April 23 Tamron Hall
- April 24 Ice-T and Jim Sciutto
- April 25 Valerie Bertinelli
- April 26 Damian and Elizabeth Hurley
The View Fans Rage With Disapproval Over The Latest Episode
While The View attempted to give a warning, the message didn’t reach everyone. Instead, it was an unwanted shock for some viewers. Undeniably, some fans were angry when their favorite daytime show wasn’t new for the week. Fans used social media to vent their rage and frustrations over the “old news” being aired.

Spring Break Is Going Well For The View Panelists
