The View‘s milestone 30th season is approaching, and former host Rosie O’Donnell will take part in the daytime talk show’s Anniversary Special.
Rosie revealed the news of her return on the Tangle With Kyle Ridley podcast. “They’re bringing back all the hosts.”
“I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.” The 64-year-old plans to take part “in whatever way they want” her “just as a guest.”
Rosie O’Donnell co-hosted the ABC talk show for Seasons 10 and 18.
Elsewhere in the episode, Rosie gave her criticism of The View. She thinks “many, many people [got] the short end of the stick” as co-hosts. “It was a factory where people were being churned in and out and [with] their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm.”
“It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about.” The Daytime Emmy winner pointed noted that it didn’t “sit right” with her.
