After granting an abrupt and early leave form ABC’s daytime talk show, ‘The View’ multiple award winner, Rosie O’Donnell is all set to make a comeback on television for MSNBC’s prime-time show.
Donnell, well known as an outspoken hostess with candid nature had walked out of ‘The View’ after an on-air dispute with another co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
In case Donnell accepts the offer she would likely be getting the 9 p.m slot on MSNBC. This slot would put her against another most watched talk shows that are ‘Larry King Live’ on CNN and ‘Hannity & Colmes’ on Fox News.
The new show on the channel would be replacing a less popular show ‘Live with Dan Abrams’, which had recently replaced another low rated show ‘Scarborough’. Both the shows had failed badly on the primetime and were unable to make any breakthrough.
MSNBC is trying best to rope in O’Donnell and many things are under consideration by both the parties like whether when would the show be aired, the amount O’Donnell would get and also that she would be seen on the NBC broadcast network.
It seems O’Donnell is all set to except the new offer as she was found giving clues about some new job while in Miami. According to podcast on lyingonthebeach.com:
“She would soon begin competing against the guy with the suspenders and the long, long face.”
It can be very well assumed that the man with long long face referred to is none other then Mr King. Therefore it is good to know that Donnell will make her presence feel by her spontaneous and witty remarks in the show!
