'''''The View''''' is an American [[talk show]] created by broadcast journalist [[Barbara Walters]]. {{As of|2025}}, in its 28th season, the show has aired on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] as part of the network's [[ABC Daytime|daytime programming block]] since August 11, 1997. The show features a multi-generational panel of women, who discuss the day's "Hot Topics", such as sociopolitical and entertainment news. In addition to the conversation segments, the panel also conducts interviews with prominent figures, such as celebrities and politicians. Production of the show was held in ABC Television Studio 23 in New York City until 2014, when it relocated to the adjacent ABC Broadcast Center, where it stayed until September 2024, when production relocated to ABC Studio B, also in New York City. 

Throughout its entire run, ''The View'' has had 24 permanent "co-hosts" of varying characteristics and ideologies, with the number of contracted permanent co-hosts ranging between four and eight women per season. The original panel comprised Walters, broadcast journalist [[Meredith Vieira]], lawyer [[Star Jones]], television host [[Debbie Matenopoulos]], and comedian [[Joy Behar]], while the current lineup consists of Behar, entertainer [[Whoopi Goldberg]], lawyer [[Sunny Hostin]], television host [[Sara Haines]], television personality [[Ana Navarro]], and political strategist [[Alyssa Farah Griffin]]. In addition, the show often makes use of male and female guest panelists.

''The View'' has won [[Daytime Emmy Awards]], including [[Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Talk Show|Outstanding Talk Show]], [[Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Talk Show Informative|Outstanding Informative Talk Show]], and [[Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Talk Show Host|Outstanding Talk Show Host]]. The show has received praise from the [[Associated Press]], ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'', the ''[[Los Angeles Times]]'', ''[[Slate (magazine)|Slate]]'', as well as ''[[The New York Times]]'', which deemed it "the most important political TV show in America". Beginning in its tenth season, the series became subject to on-air controversies and media criticism involving its panel. It was transferred from the helm of ABC's entertainment division to that of [[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]] in 2014 following a decline in ratings. By 2021, ''The View'' had become the most-viewed news and talk program in daytime television.

The original opening credits for ''The View'' featured a [[voice-over]] from the show's creator and executive producer, [[broadcast journalist]] [[Barbara Walters]], explaining the show's premise as well as its co-hosts' credentials:

==Reception==

===Critical response===
A ''[[New York Times]]'' review, published ten days after the show premiered, describes what critic [[Caryn James]] thought was distinctive about the show:
{{Cquote|The idea of women talking to one another on daytime television is not exactly radical. The idea that those women should be smart and accomplished is still odd enough to make ''The View'' seem wildly different.
