Live From New York, It’s the Hags of “The View”
By Debbie Schlussel
While the only funny thing here is Ben Affleck’s surprisingly excellent Alec Baldwin impersonation, it shows just how painful this horrid ABC show–on which far too many American women rely for political advice–is. It also shows just what an airhead and ineffective “conservative” spokesperson the eternal ditz, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, is. Like I said, it’s mostly not funny and way too long, as with most SNL material, but it captures these annoying, shrieking, masculine women quite well.
Whose idea was it to call them “The Ladies” of “The View”, anyway? More like Biddies. Nothin’ ladylike about ’em.
The “Whoopi” in this skit is far better looking than the real life Whoopi, otherwise it’s spot on.
