I was checking the View's main website to see if anything was mentioned about the other topic..(Manilow).. and happened to see that Meredith Viera will be visiting on Oct 8th.

There was also an option to see the schedules of the panel.. (other appearances..) Sherri Shepherd is slated to be on Star Jones show (Court TV) on the 21st.. which is Friday. I did catch a short clip of Star's show the other week.. I might try to catch the show on Friday.. Could be interesting!

Did anyone see The View yesterday? THe panel in Hot Topics was discussing evolution. It seems that Sherri was the only one on the panel who does not believe in it in any degree.

Whoopi was very politely asking Sherri questions about God, discovery, human exlploration, etc., when she asked Sherri if she believed the world was flat. She was trying to make a point, but Sherri didn't understand that and said very honestly that she didn't know if the world was flat or not. She said I may not know whether the world is flat or not, but I do know how to support my child when the bills come in and no money is coming in. I could feel the utter shock on the panel. I was embarrassed for Sherri. I chose to fast forward and not watch any more on that topic, It just made me feel very sorry for her. I don't know how they tried to move on out of that uncomfortable moment. What can you say about that?

I hope Sherri didn't think she was being set up. I really don't think that was intended at all. I just now wonder if the reason Sherri was hesitant to accept this job is that she knew her educational limitations and was afraid she would humilate herself by not knowing certain things on air.

I now wonder how Barbara is going to continue with Sherri on the panel in light of this revelation. I mean you don't have to have a college degree, but to not know the world is not flat? I don't understand why she said that. She was not joking and you could tell she was very sincere.

The top of todays show, she explains that she's never had to defend her beliefs before publicly and she just froze up... All seems to be well... I don't think anyone was trying to trap her.. I think yesterday at one point she deflected it and said her main concern was taking care of her family. Maybe she thought it was a trick question to trap her into a corner about her beliefs.

When someone asks you a point blank question and you know their position counters your own.. you might well anticipate them trying to make their point at your expense.

I think she felt on the defensive..

I'm glad she has saved face, but I think she really didn't know. I will try to put this out of my mind when watching the show, but I must admit that it will be hard for me to put aside. Maybe Barbara will pubically push it aside, but it was rumored the real reason she did not renew Debbie Metanopalis (sp?), after their first season is that she was not very intelligent. Several topics came up on the show that Debbie was clueless about.

I now see Sherri on the panel for no more than 1 season. I think other issues will come up that will put her in similar situations. I hope the others don't walk on egg shells to avoid making her look bad though. That wouldn't be right.

I realize she had a young child, but she needs to get a private tutor for herself or go to evening classes to get her GED or some basic education.

I hope Sherri stays with the show her limited education should not be a factor.
