    Leah and Holly are gone and I'm sure Sharon isn't far behind! No appeal to watch the show anymore. So, I'm over it! Holly amd Leah were magical together.

    This show definitely has its issues (Sharon Osbourne, too much focus on celebrity gossip, etc.), but even on its worst day, its heads and shoulders above The View, which has been a poor, trashy (thanks to the idiotic fart bag Whoopi Goldberg) imitator of itself ever since Meredith Vieira left.

I appreciate how they allow each other to speak without all the crosstalk and they're not disrespectful to each other or their guests. Another thing I prefer about them is from day 1 they never pretended to be a serious or "news" show. What's the point in watching a show that claps itself on the back for talking politics when the hosts are not well informed and scream at each other? Keep on sludging and sliming your way along, View (you should've been canceled years ago). Keep going, Talk ladies!… Expand

    Why would anyone watch a show with Sharon Osborne ??? The horrible things she said about Susan Boyle are unforgivable. She thought she was so cute and funny making remarks about Susan Boyle’s appearance. Why don’t we take away your $500 hair cut, your professional make-up and all the things money can buy including plastic surgery and see what you look like Sharon. You are not attractiveWhy would anyone watch a show with Sharon Osborne ??? The horrible things she said about Susan Boyle are unforgivable. She thought she was so cute and funny making remarks about Susan Boyle’s appearance. Why don’t we take away your $500 hair cut, your professional make-up and all the things money can buy including plastic surgery and see what you look like Sharon. You are not attractive but you feel empowered by your fame and money to put someone down. Susan Boyle is a magnificent talent. She may not have grown up in a household where she was introduced to eyebrow plucking and trips to the hair Solon, but she is a more beautiful person than you will ever be Sharon. Shame on anyone that supports this show with Sharon Osborne a part of it!… Expand

    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]

    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.

    Like "The View," The Talk was an hour of plastic blatherers pretending to be a microcosm of American women.
