Mark your calendars kids, or not, Meredith Vieira is heading back to The View, for one day anyway, on October 8th. She'll be there to promote her Who Wants To Be A Millionaire game show and a DVD game that is coming out based on the show. I always seem to forget that she even does that because, man, I just don't get the attraction to Millionaire. It's just so dang slow. How that show made it while Beat The Geeks disappeared just boggles me.
Anyway, I suspect it will be all warm and fuzzy with a lot of palms getting sore as the whole group pats each other on the back for all the wonderfulness they are all putting out in the world, or something like that. An entirely different vibe than what we would get if this headline was Rosie returning to the view. Or even Star Jones, for that matter.

Beat the Geeks was one of the best shows ever made. I'm still angry about it being cancelled.

I was delighted to see Meredith Vieira on the View yesterday. I've always loved her and I think she's doing great on the Today show. I also loved her on "Who wants to be a Millionaire". However, I was surprised yesterday with her comments about herself on the View. I noticed that she put herself down many, many times. Comments that she didn't have brains, etc. She was very self depricating and made alot of fun of herself. It was cute at first, but Meredith, you don't need to do that. You are a very intelligent woman and you don't need to demean yourself like that -- even if its all in fun.
