Rosie Perez To Exit "The View" (EXCLUSIVE)
January 14, 2015
by Ramin Setoodeh

After only four months on "The View", Rosie Perez is leaving the ABC morning show, Variety has learned. Perez had taken off the month of January to appear in the Broadway play “Fish in the Dark,” but it’s understood that she won’t be coming back to the Hot Topics table once she’s done.

It’s unclear when ABC will announce her departure, but for now "View" producers have been trying other younger co-hosts in her seat.

After declining steadily for a few years, ratings for "The View" have stabilized in its 18th season with new co-hosts Rosie O’Donnell and Nicolle Wallace joining moderator Whoopi Goldberg; the show is on par with last year in total viewers and down a bit in key demos.

Perez was handpicked by the show’s new executive producer Bill Wolff as a last-minute choice after the show underwent a reinvention this past summer after the retirement of Barbara Walters.

The choice of Perez was a surprise given the other contenders that were in the mix last year. But Perez never got a hang of the show’s mixture of hard and soft news, and she had trouble reading from a TelePrompTer, insiders say.

In October, "The View" moved from ABC Daytime to a special production unit of ABC News. But the shift in management hasn’t resulted in any improvement in "View" ratings. More changes in staffing — both behind and in front of the camera — are said to be in the works.

Rosie Perez Will Return to "The View" After All
by Sadie Gennis
Jan 22, 2015

Despite rumors of her firing, Rosie Perez will return to co-host "The View" on Feb. 3, TVGuide.com has confirmed.

Perez joined Rosie O'Donnell, Whoopi Goldberg and Nicolle Wallace at The View table four months ago, but the actress took a break from the series this month to rehearse for Larry David's upcoming Broadway play Fish in the Dark.

Last week, Variety reported Perez would not be returning to "The View" following her rehearsals because the producers wanted to find a younger host to replace her. However, ABC has dismissed the rumors.

"We look forward to welcoming the multi-talented Rosie Perez back to her seat as co-host on the panel on Feb. 3 after completing rehearsals," a rep for ABC said in a statement. "She brings her rich life experience and passion to the table, something we've sorely missed while she's been away."

JamesG, nice picture of Rosie Perez. She's aged well and she has big breasts LOL. I liked her in the movies Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing and White Men Can't Jump.

"The View" co-host Rosie Perez made an appearance on another morning talk show on Thursday, stopping by NBC's "Today" to talk about her role in Larry David's new play Fish in the Dark.

Perez addressed the reports that she was leaving "The View", which surfaced while she was temporarily off the show while she was rehearsing, saying "I don't know where the heck that came from. I was just in rehearsal and I heard that and I was like, 'news to me.'"

She noted that the show is looking for a replacement for former co-host Rosie O'Donnell who left a couple of weeks ago.

"Everything is fine. … We're having a really good time and this energy between Nicolle Wallace and Whoopi Goldbergand I is really, really good."
