The View Isn't Just Successful, It's Been Influential

Last year, the view had its most watch season in six years. Season to date, it ranks number one in households for the first time at this point in the season in its 24-year history. The initial idea of a show filled with different women from different generations was replaced by the idea of different women with different politics. It was a housewife's moment before the phrase housewife’s moment was even a thing. Those fights between rose and elizabeth, that drama between starr and barbara, those helped the show solidify its power.
