Joy Behar Expresses Happiness Over Departure from ‘The View’ – The Reasons Behind Her Decision

Joy Behar getting fired was a “happy” event for the The View host. Why?

Despite decades of success, many wonder if and when The View will be canceled.

The View co-hosts leave, cycling in and out. The biggest deals are when they’re the show’s primary antagonists or when they’re staples of the hit daytime talk show series.

With a few interruptions, Joy Behar has been part of the show since its inception. Why was she fired? Why was she “happy” to be fired?

Joy Behar has discussed being fired from ‘The View’

It’s more than just one show. Joy Behar has used The View to touch upon her past firing from Good Morning America.

As it turns out, she has been fired from GMA twice. Speaking to The View guest Kumail Nanjiani in 202, she revealed that she had been “the worst receptionist” in the show’s history.

She also alleged that the show had taken her to Chippendales as a “goodbye present” while letting her go. It is possible that she was jokingly exaggerating circumstances.

In 2007, Joy Behar left The View despite having helped launch the hit daytime talk show series. Initially, it appeared to be a voluntary situation.

However, in 2022, she divulged to People that “somebody wanted me gone” in 2013. Her exit wasn’t as cordial as it seemed — she’d been fired. The series, it seemed, was trying to shift away from political discussion.

Joy Behar believed that the show had been going down the wrong path. Her 2022 commentary noted: “That’s not the first time I’ve been fired for my politics.”

But Joy Behar was ‘happy’ to be fired

Her 2013 firing, which was followed by her return as a guest host and then full reinstatement in 2015, was not as unhappy as it would be for most people.

“I was glad to be fired,” she admitted to her co-hosts on The View.

Her reason was simple: she missed her friends, and “all” of her friends on the show were gone at that point.
