Season 1 Review: Gilbert seems like the one you'd most like the one you'd like to have in your actual mom's group. The others, not so much. [15 Nov 2010, p.43]

Linda Stasi

Season 1 Review: This mommy-answer to "The View" is a somewhat dumbed-down version of that show except here the panel--Julie Chen, Sharon Osbourne, Holly Robinson Peete, Leah Remini, Sara Gilbert and Marissa Jaret Winokur--discuss traditional "women's topics," i.e. kids, cooking and such.

Season 1 Review: If you don't have a support group of pals to compare notes with, you could do worse than The Talk. Let's hope it stays lively. Read full review

Season 1 Review: A clumsily obvious rip-off of the Barbara Walters sensation "The View." Read full review

Season 1 Review: Like "The View," The Talk was an hour of plastic blatherers pretending to be a microcosm of American women. Read full review

Mark A. Perigard

Season 1 Review: Unlike "The View," there were no topical references--the show could have been filmed five years ago for all its relevance--unless you count the moment Osbourne turned a vague discussion of divorce law reform into a rant against cyberbullying. Read full review

I can't believe that Marie Osmond had an opinion that Oprah is nice. Then the old lady says it's not so much that she's nice she's is powerful. Okay, she just didn't respect what Maria appreciates about Oprah. It would be awful if Oprah wasn't nice then people wouldn't want to follow herI can't believe that Marie Osmond had an opinion that Oprah is nice. Then the old lady says it's not so much that she's nice she's is powerful. Okay, she just didn't respect what Maria appreciates about Oprah. It would be awful if Oprah wasn't nice then people wouldn't want to follow her or appreciates what she has to say. The old lady shouldn't just cut someone down especially sine we grew up with Marie Osmond and we love her. Please don't disregard Marie's opinion. It doesn't mean because she is older that she's wiser or treat someone else like you know everything.… Expand

I liked him in the beginning but his antics grow old. Why does he need his face before the camera constantly? Today when Natalie was talking about UFOs Jerry completely took over the show and kept saying she was high. I don't care if he doesn't believe in them I do. He should have kept his mouth shut. He just wants to get his face on camera. TONE IT DOWN FOR GODS SAKE JERRY. Sheryl can grind my teeth sometimes. She elaborates way to long. They are all supposed to feel so sorry for her. WHY? She really is jealous of the other women. She got her best friend fired and didn't shed a tear. Simmer Jerry down and quit treating Sheryl like a baby. She is treated like a prima donna and I bet backstage too.… Expand

This would be a great show if Sharon Osbourne was not on it. I cannot watch her because of the way she has made fun of women's bodies. She has clearly had a bunch of work done, and should not make fun of people. She talks baby talk.

I used to stop everything I was doing to be home in time to watch THE TALK. After the "attack" on Mrs. O, I will never watch the show again.

This show is a complete disappointment it was originally for women to have interesting dialogue and it has turned into the Sheryl show where she can continually push her BLM agenda. I have seen the other host’s expressions on their faces when she goes on and on about Her agenda I am notThis show is a complete disappointment it was originally for women to have interesting dialogue and it has turned into the Sheryl show where she can continually push her BLM agenda. I have seen the other host’s expressions on their faces when she goes on and on about Her agenda I am not surprised that much more relevant, interesting, popular hosts have left the show I would not be able to sit and endure her pushing her agenda And not dare state your own opinion under the threat of being called a racist I can’t even stand to turn that show on and see her face.… Expand
