Barbara Walters is planning to announce her retirement.
What's next for Babs?
Death.
The old Norm MacDonald is back.
You know what I'm going to do tomorrow?
I'm going to watch The Fucking View.
The View?
That's what I'm going to do.
How dare you?
That's where I'm going to get my humor from.
You told me you didn't like The View.
But I'm watching it tomorrow.
You told me you didn't like it.
I never told you that.
Oh, you liked it?
I told you they're my favorite of all time.
What's your dream view?
The show The View?
The guests?
What four or five ladies would you want in there?
Ooh, that's a great question.
Susan Yaglet.
That's your wife.
She doesn't even recognize her name.
It's your betrothed.
My betrothed.
I recognize the name.
No, I would like to see...
Who do I like on that show?
That's good coffee.
I'm a fan of The View because Sherri Shepherd is a good friend of mine.
Sure.
And I've been on The View a lot, which is weird.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because I'm on The View.
Daphne Aguilera was on The View.
Oh, really?
Did we?
Daphne Aguilera, he didn't rub your cock on my...
Okay, come on.
This is what we're trying to get away from.
Sorry.
And by the way, every time I'm on The View, Barbara Walters will not be on The
View.
Is that right?
Yeah, she won't be on it with me.
And it has to be the pre-taped one.
Filthy old bag.
That's four or five sidekicks.
I don't like her.
Why not?
Barbara Walters?
Yeah.
Because they're like, she's retiring.
She did everything for journalism.
To me, she was horrible.
She just started this whole celebrity journalism thing.
Yeah, but she had the Barbara Walters hour.
What was that?
Before the Oscars, she would interview.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
The ten most fascinating people.
Barbara Walters never listens to me.
I have to talk to Sherry Shepard.
Fortunately, we share views on dinosaurs.
But I can never get that lady, the old lady.
How do you have a person on a show that believes the Earth is flat and men live
with dinosaurs,
and you keep them on the show?
Come on.
Oh, well, that I agree.
You know what I say?
Someone goes, my brother once said, well, you have to have the opposing view.
Like, if I had a show, would I have someone on the panel that had the opposing
view?
I'd go, no.
You fucking bring it in on a satellite, and you talk to them for three minutes,
and then
you fucking --
Or you ignore it.
They're losing a couple people from The View, though.
Wait.
I think they're losing Elizabeth Hasselbeck and Joy Behar.
No, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, there was a rumor.
Oh, there was just a rumor?
Yeah, yeah.
That was --
Oh, thank God.
That was an electric.
You checked Snopes on that?
So here, now, we tell jokes.
Now, you think you don't tell jokes, but wait until you --
Well, I can read them.
You can read them.
Oh, I saw one in the bathroom.
I went to use the bathroom.
Oh, I threw some -- I threw some in the garbage.
I threw some in the garbage.
Garbage.
Don't tell people that.
That you threw all the racist ones.
Oh, my God.
The one I remember was The View.
Wait, wait.
I don't want to do View jokes.
What do you do?
Because if you -- if you -- you start a battle with Joy Behar, you're not going
to win.
No, you'll win easily.
But read this one.
Read this one.
Read this one.
Read this one.
It should remind you of your, like, drunk aunt, like Joy Behar.
Joy Behar reminds me of an older person in my family that's funny around the
table.
They're virtually what she is.
Yeah.
You know how old Joy Behar is?
Well, I don't think she wants you to tell everybody.
It's in her Wikipedia.
Oh, she's, I think, a lot older than I thought.
Seventy.
Yeah.
She looks great.
That sounds about right to me.
Seventy?
No, I never -- I didn't think of her as 70.
Jesus Christ almighty.
When did she break?
Fifty?
I like her.
I like her, too.
She reminds me of, like, your old aunt or something.
What kind of hen-ass horse shit is that?
I like the view.
You probably are afraid of Joy Behar, are you?
Who wouldn't be?
She's a little bit of a firecracker.
Terrifying.
She's funny.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She reminds me of, like, your aunt that tells jokes at the fucking Thanksgiving
table.
I'm going to go get that joke.
Oh, my God.
Because the way they wrote it was pretty funny.
Barbara Walters announced that she's retiring from The View.
Well, actually, she announced it five years ago, but no one could hear her over
those yammering
bitches.
See?
I thought it was funny.
Amazing that that worked after that giant building.
And Barbara Walters is never leaving.
She's 83 and she had chickenpox.
Can you believe that?
Yeah.
Wouldn't you love to see her chickenpox?
No.
No.
No?
No.
At 83 at night in the negligee coming out of the bathroom.
Wouldn't she get shingles then?
No, no.
If you get chickenpox, you can get shingles.
Yeah.
But she hasn't gotten them yet.
Yeah.
What a group that is.
Oh, my God.
I heard she got...
I just want to lose my life.
I want to kiss you.
Kiss me.
Kiss me.
I want to kiss you.
Kiss me.
I want to kiss you.
Kiss me.
I want to kiss you.
You told me that we should go our separate ways.
But now it's my life without...
Hey, Barbara Walters is retiring.
I can understand why Barbara Walters is retiring.
It must be exhausting occasionally appearing on The View.
Right?
We're fucking going on the road doing all kinds of shit.
Yeah.
Doing our shit acts.
Not you.
Your act's good.
It's pretty shitty.
But she gets to sit there.
And just fucking talk.
Yeah, just yap.
The fuck?
You ever been on that show?
I've been on it so many times.
