Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Ana Navarro, and Alyssa Farah Griffin are on a summer break

Sadly, The View isn’t on this week — or, most of this month, for that matter. After another season of spicy Hot Topics, cell phone interruptions, Elmo-inspired screaming matches, intergalactic extraterrestrial inquisitions, lightsaber attacks, and mysterious noise-based phantoms clapping through the airspace above, the show has officially put another edition of episodes into its own history books. While the program might be on a much-needed summer break before the already tumultuous presidential election cycle ramps up, a new season is on the way sooner than you think.

Friday’s installment marked the last of season 27, with Joy Behar moderating a table populated by cohosts Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Ana Navarro, and Alyssa Farah Griffin — all of whom are expected to return alongside usual moderator Whoopi Goldberg, who has Fridays off and celebrated her final show of the season on Thursday.

Fans will still be able to see all six cohosts sit at the Hot Topics table throughout the remainder of August, however, as The View will air encore broadcasts across the weeks ahead, including past episodes featuring guests like Jennifer Connelly, Ayo Edebiri, Jessica Biel, Maya Rudolph, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and Goldberg’s show-stopping Sister Act 2 cast reunion.

Ahead of the show’s season 28 premiere, Hostin revealed on the season 27 finale that the program is moving to a new studio location in Manhattan.

“This is the final episode of the season, and, after 10 years and 2,143 episodes, this is also the last show we’ll do from this studio,” Hostin said. “We’re sad to say goodbye, but we’re thrilled to be moving to a brand new studio downtown, state of the art.”

There’s no word yet on if the show will receive a newly themed set for season 28, though the show recently revamped its on-camera aesthetic between seasons 26 and 27, shifting from a cooler-toned palette to one with warmer accents for the season 27 premiere in September 2023.

Also a mystery? Whether or not Behar will go to Europe and call another Italian woman a bitch on this year’s summer vacation.
