I’m so excited to see her on the show, I will definitely be tuning in!!

I think it will be a wonderful fun filled show. I have my DVR “set”, but I hope to watch it during it’s scheduled air time. I am excited to see the two of them together. It should be an instant hit !!!!!!!!!

Can’t wait! Any opportunity to see Rosie is a joy. And I’ll bet she and RR have great chemistry.
Sorry to go off topic … but can anyone tell me why Rachael Ray is SO hated by some people? I think there is a I Hate Rachael Ray site. I don’t get it. Can anyone explain? Waiting in the supermarket line today I saw a tabloid headline that said Oprah hates Rachael & there’s some big feud going on with them….

Thanks for the info, Winnie. Now I have to get up early; RR comes on at 9am in SF. I usually start my day with the View at 10.
I miss Rosie on TV; I just got Celebrity Detox from the library and want to start reading it tomorrow.

Looking forward to this!
Rachel was supposedly caught dissing Oprah at a dinner (tabbies), so perhaps the tabs are rolling that tidbit again. Rachel was also written up in one of the NY papers for having a not so pristine rep in NY during her college days, apparently she skipped out owing money. So did Larry King in Florida many years ago and look where he is today.

I saw it & it was GREAT!
R is soooo likeable.
I was on the rr boards & the posts were
“RR y r u having that tantrum women on” & “RR i want 2 be entertainment not controversy”.
The show was great!

The show was terrific. We do not get it until 3 pm. EST.I watched the early video on Winnie’s site.Then I watched the whole program at 3 pm.
If you read my yesterday’s comments ( # 3…May 1st.) I felt I was right on the “mark” about it being a “hit”.I thought there was a lot of chemistry between them. IMO.
I loved every bit of it. I think RR was sincere, at the end of the show, when she told Rosie that it was the best of all her shows and she had a great time.

#4, maybe I can answer some of that. Some of us loved RR when she only had her 30-minute meal show, a nice non-jaded young lady from upstate NY, who I loved watching on foodtv.
To some of us it seemed like In just about a New York minute, she changed and got glammed and glitzed out, changed in many ways actually.
But I’m glad to see the RR show here with Rosie. I love getting any chance to see Rosie, she is such a natural and tries to stay grounded and hence to be herself at all times. Rosie is NOT jaded in my opinion.

“Rachel was supposedly caught dissing Oprah at a dinner (tabbies), ”
ooh, wonder what RR said about the Big O?
MiamiVision, haven’t seen that name here. You know I really agree with you on Rosie:
“Rosie, she is such a natural and tries to stay grounded and hence to be herself at all times. Rosie is NOT jaded in my opinion.”
Maybe this goes better on that other topic where they were discussing being “fair” to Barbara. Well I think Rosie is the one who gets the “fair” crown. When The View topic comes up, she comes across to me about as “spin free” as we’ll get from a celebrity. She’s admitted she might have put big, unrealistic expectations on Barbara, kind of looked to her as a mother figure. She’s made some self deprecating pokes at herself about it. Also about how she needs to be the boss. I guess this might not be what you are getting at, I’m just expanding on your saying Rosie tries to stay grounded. I really think that’s true.
