CBS has assembled the cast of the pilot for its View-type daytime panel talk show, eyed as a potential replacement for departing daytime soap As the World Turns. Leah Remini is the latest to be cast in the pilot, joining fellow panelists Sara Gilbert, Julie Chen, Holly Robinson Peete and Sharon Osbourne. She is the third sitcom star on the panel, along with Gilbert and Robinson Peete. The panel talk show, which focuses on topical events through the eyes of moms, is executive produced by Tom Forman and Gilbert. It is among several, including reboots of classic game shows Pyramid and Password, which are in the running to replace As the Word Turns in September. Remini most recently starred in the ABC comedy pilot It Takes A Village this past development season.

Hearing “Cackle” is being considered as a title.
LOVE IT!
So is this another four liberals and one token conservative female nag fest? I just can’t wait to hear Sharon Osbourne’s view on comprehensive immigration reform.
Too many women, they should drop Peete and Chen. Those two are both boring as hell. Remini, Osbourne, and Gilbert would be entertaining. If they need a fourth, keep Chen, but I just don’t see the point of Peete.
You don’t see the point of the only African-American?
I love how @LL suggested getting rid of the only black women on the panel and the only Asian. wow.
Do. Not. Want.
are you sure about password? that was primetime when it aired last.
Add Greta van Susternen and you got an ace of scientologist for your morning joe. haha
actually, Leah Remini covers that ground just fine on her own.
The point of Chen is that she does an excellent job on the president of the network. And I don’t mean the two he’s already given her.
What,the original four screeching yentas aren’t enough? I rather eat tin foil.
sounds to me like CBs is trying to copy the view. though should be interesting to hear Sharon’s opinion on certain topics. a riot in waiting.
Blech! Blech! Blech! They’re all Snoozers! Why can’t we get some balance and intelligence on TV anymore. Like Chen can relate to America — or any of them, for that matter!! They’re all a bunch of rich celebrities! Helloooo!
Wow, this is going to be a bigger clusterfuck than MomLogic wound up being…
It sounds like 1 hour of interuptions with time out to remove the wounded
Would people watch if they found four non-celebs? Seriously, I want to know. I think it WOULD work and be MORE interesting. A single lady. A (gay) married lady. A (straight) married lady. An older lady. Maybe one of these ladies has a kid…maybe one of these ladies is Muslim…maybe one of these ladies used to be a man…Just some ideas…
And the first one who crosses Julie Chen gets the ax by Les Moonves. Man, I KNEW I should’ve slept my way to the top.
By any standard, Sharon Osbourne is a HORRIBLE mother. Look at her drug-addicted doped up kids. Look at her own behavior, physically attacking a reality participant on her Vh1 show and pulling her hair out. She’s a despicable person by any standard.
Sharon is a show killer. They will have to get rid of her
Holly Robinson Peete has killed more series than Ben Silverman.
she will sink this series singlehanded
She will be the first houseguest to be evicted by Julie Chen.
I’m really hoping that Pyramid gets the slot. Adding Remini to the lineup merely cements the “trainwreck” label on this project. They should just call the show “View Askew”, if it didn’t mean that Kevin Smith would instantly sue.
Who needs this? The budget for As The World Turns has to be less than these has been divas… They should have kept the soap on…
Original Idea…
yuck!/who?
L. Ron Hubbard approves this.
is Leah going to bring the e-meters?
“Opinions are like *******, everybody has one.” (And they all stink!) I’d rather watch a ridiculous soap opera than listen to a bunch of egomaniacal “celebrities” weigh in on every issue there is. Who cares what they have to say, the whole thing is just a lame ripoff of “The View” anyway. If you’re going to kill a 54-year old show, at least do it with something new and different. This show will be a dud, just like Wayne Brady’s “Let’s Make a Deal” has been a dud. Zzzzz.
Leah Remini is about as mean and cheap as they come, but she’s funny and quick and will probably be the best part entertainment-wise. Just don’t WORK on it unless you’re into non-stop abuse, or watching the non-stop abuse of every crew member, producer and writer. Tears will flow. And if you’re looking for a nap, you’ll never lose with Julie Chen. The show will go dark in a few weeks not matter what the ratings are. You can’t mix Leah’s cigarettes and Chen’s 2 cans of Aqua Net per episode without an impending explosion. If they’re shooting this at CBS, I’d stay clear. You might get blown all the way to Little Ethiopia if you’re stuck in traffic on the wrong day. Or if you’re eating at El Coyote, Moonves might land on you. And a little tragic, if his wife lands at Jar. They should be together. It’s only right.
The last thing I want to see on TV is another Talk Show with a bunch of less than interesting women or a “Reality” show. I have absolutley NO desire to see/hear Leah Remini, Julie Chen or Sharon Osborne on ANYTHING. I stopped watching the CBS morning show because of Julie Chen. Please have mercy … I would rather see a really good intelligent game show or an educational program of some type.
