After seven years, former The View co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck returned to the ABC daytime talk show during the Wednesday, March 11 episode. Hasselbeck returned to her seat at the co-hosting table alongside Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Meghan McCain after having left the series back in 2013 following her 10-year tenure on the show.

Hasselbeck, who was dubbed as the "OG of the conservative seat," was announced to be returning last week. Her return follows the return of former co-host Sara Haines, who filled in for Hostin, whose paternal grandmother recently passed away.

"I don't remember Elisabeth being THIS bad in the past," said another viewer. "I may not agree with a lot of what she says, but I'm definitely appreciating Meghan more after today."

"I don't think Elizabeth is aware of what is really taking place which is understandable due to the devastating tornadoes in Tennessee," commented another.

"Just like when she was a regular on the show, Elizabeth thinks it's her show," accused one person. "Can't stand her."

"The consensus for some, seems to be that even though Meghan irks them, they prefer her over Elisabeth," commented another. "I prefer neither one, but I definitely get it."
