Some people don't think this should be a "top story" of 2007, as I've heard it decried already around the interwebs, but the fact remains that this feud was all over the news, garnered high ratings and made The View one of the most buzzed about shows of 2007. Regardless of if you think Rosie was being a bully or Elisabeth was being a baby or if both were being words we don't say in polite company, it was a big deal. I know when I heard she was joining the show for its tenth season, my first thought was "The View is still on the air?"

• The latest ways the writer's strike will affect what's on TV.
  
• Conan O'Brien's "priest stalker" was arrested.
  
• Rosie ruined her chances at a prime-time slot by blabbing about it.
  

Mark your calendars kids, or not, Meredith Vieira is heading back to The View, for one day anyway, on October 8th. She'll be there to promote her Who Wants To Be A Millionaire game show and a DVD game that is coming out based on the show. I always seem to forget that she even does that because, man, I just don't get the attraction to Millionaire. It's just so dang slow. How that show made it while Beat The Geeks disappeared just boggles me.

Anyway, I suspect it will be all warm and fuzzy with a lot of palms getting sore as the whole group pats each other on the back for all the wonderfulness they are all putting out in the world, or something like that. An entirely different vibe than what we would get if this headline was Rosie returning to the view. Or even Star Jones, for that matter.

• Though it's still not confirmed, the chances of Whoopie Goldberg being Rosie's replacement on The View are looking better and better.
  
• Are people getting sick of everything to do with American Idol? Kelly Clarkson canceled her summer tour due to poor ticket sales.
  
• I had no idea there was a serious need for a backup Elvira.
  

• Jordin Sparks has told the press she's had no professional voice training, but a woman who claims to be her former voice coach says otherwise.
  
• Rosie fans are circulating a petition to have Elisabeth booted from The View.
• CMT is bringing us a new rodeo reality show, where we can see our least favorite celebrities bucked off bulls.
  

• Tori Spelling is re-engaged. I'm re-unimpressed.
  
• New Year's with the cast of The Sopranos wasn't exactly a hot item on Ebay.
  
• The immature Rosie and Donald feud continues, and I'm resolving to stop talking about.
  

On Thursdays episode of The View, a show I never watch because I spend that time celebrating the fact I'm not watching The View, Rosie O'Donnell cracked wise about Danny DeVito's drunken appearance on the show being national news, saying that even in China the newspaper read, "Ching chong, ching ching chong, Danny DeVito!"
