Why The View isn’t on this week — and when new episodes will return


Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Ana Navarro, and Alyssa Farah Griffin will soon return to the Hot Topics table.

The View is taking a little break from all that cell phone scolding, sliming, and comically collapsing at the Hot Topics table.

If you tuned in to the beloved talk show Monday, you were met with a repeat episode — and that’ll be the case throughout the week, as cohosts Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Ana Navarro, and Alyssa Farah Griffin are all on a spring break until April 29.

The show, which just received multiple Daytime Emmy nominations, is set to air repeats through Friday, with the production’s accompanying Behind the Table podcast also going dark for that period.

Jennifer Lopez’s interview from earlier this year will air again on April 22, followed by encore broadcasts of interviews with Tamron Hall (April 23), Ice-T and Jim Sciutto (April 24), Valerie Bertinelli (April 25), and Damian and Elizabeth Hurley (April 26).

Last year, Behar’s spirited spring vacation to Europe resulted in one of the show’s most comical anecdotes of the year, involving the 81-year-old’s encounter with an Italian woman on a train.

“The people are nice, here and there. I had to call one woman the b-word, but that’s something else,” Behar said at the time.

“I said it in English because she wouldn’t let me pee in the first-class lounge. I said, ‘Please, let me just go!'” she continued. “I said, ‘Listen, don’t be a bitch.’ She wouldn’t let me go.”

The View returns with new episodes — and, hopefully, more stories of Behar’s international encounters — beginning Monday, April 29 on ABC.
