When it comes to excitement and unpredictability, no show delivers quite like “The View”. With its lively discussions and diverse panel, this daytime show never fails to entertain. In fact, it recently had a moment that had the audience on their feet – quite literally.

It turned out that Behar had attempted to land on a “dangerous” swivel chair, which led to her comical detour. Reflecting on the incident, Behar humorously quipped, “Remember when I fell on stage here? My tush missed the seat.” Her self-deprecating humor adds to the charm that has endeared her to fans over the years. Behar always knows how to find the humor in any situation, even when it involves taking an unexpected tumble on live TV.

Behar’s co-host, Whoopi Goldberg, shared her perspective on the mishap. She emphasized that the audience had a limited view compared to the hosts, who witnessed Behar’s struggle to avoid falling onto the floor. Goldberg described the ordeal as “scary” because they were torn between wanting to prevent a fall and potentially causing discomfort by touching Behar. It was a moment that showcased the camaraderie and care among the panelists.

Behar, in her usual comedic fashion, likened the workplace to an amusement park. She humorously compared the moving chairs to a swirling ride at Coney Island. The mishap led to new safety features being introduced on the show. The upgraded chairs now have four tall legs, a square seat, and an adjoining back, all designed to prevent any future incidents.

During the unveiling of the new chairs, Goldberg chimed in with her signature wit, saying, “They’re not new to my behind because my behind doesn’t fit in this chair, as I’ve mentioned many times.” The banter between the hosts continued as they playfully discussed making do with the available accommodations. It was a lighthearted moment that further endeared the show and its hosts to the audience.

Earlier in the week, Goldberg, aged 67, came to Behar’s defense after co-host Ana Navarro claimed that Bill Geddie, the late co-creator of “The View,” both hired and fired Behar. The camaraderie among the hosts showcased the dynamic nature of the long-running daytime show. It’s clear that they have each other’s backs, both on and off the set.

Her ability to inject humor and provoke thoughtful conversations is one of the reasons why she is beloved by audiences of all ages.
