The View audiences have witnessed myriad moments that might be considered problematic for many other series, so whenever something goes down that’s considered controversial or questionable even by the show’s own standards, you know it’s a doozy. And it sounds like all of those moments represented exactly the kind of TV that former executive producer Bill Geddie intended to deliver when he co-created the show with Barbara Walters back in 1997. Sadly, Geddie passed away on July 20 at the age of 68, and the daytime talk show dedicated part of its July 24 episode to his memory, with moderator Whoopi Goldberg and former co-host Sherri Shepherd recalling the times when he stood supportively in their corner during their respective comments about the Holocaust and the shape of the Earth.
