The View is expanding to weekends with the new streaming series, The Weekend View, on ABC News Live.
The panel for the weekend edition will feature Friday’s co-hosts, including Ana Navarro, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin, and Joy Behar as the lead moderator.
Starting Saturday, January 11 at 7:30 a.m. ET and re-airing throughout the weekend, the 30-minute expansion will focus on the biggest stories in entertainment and the buzziest topics trending on social media.
“In addition to having its most-watched linear season in four years, The View is finding success meeting viewers wherever they get their content, from podcasts to YouTube, and now with new exclusive streaming content for the weekend on ABC News Live,” said Brian Teta, executive producer of The View.
The Weekend View will also feature an all-new “Hot Topics” segment, with the co-hosts sharing their hot takes on the latest pop culture topics. Segments from the Behind the Table podcast will also be featured in the weekend expansion.
“The expansion of The View on ABC News Live combines the strength of both to create seamless, blended programming for our viewers,” said Karin Gilford, senior vice president of Digital Media, ABC News Group and Disney Entertainment Networks. “Coming off its best year ever, with over 600 million hours streamed, ABC News Live is the perfect platform to host this exciting new chapter for the popular talk show.”
The Weekend View is produced by The View, with new episodes premiering on Saturdays. Brian Teta is executive producer, Robin Hommel is executive broadcast producer, and Sarah de la O is the director.
