"All Things TV" Not exactly 'The Talk' of the town....

Perhaps in a bid to cash in on the concept of 'The View', another group of women decided to get together for another talk show called 'The Talk'.

Not sure if we needed another show from a woman's point of 'view', if you will, but from my small sampling 'The Talk' doesn't really stir up anger or make a person think.

"The Talk" doesn't do much at all, in fact, but listen to itself 'talk'.

OK ... enough with the puns ... it just didn't seem like the subject matter on "The Talk" is particularly meaty.

While "The View" has hosts and guests you can either truly like or dislike and issues that can make your blood boil, "The Talk" seems pretty milquetoast by comparison.

For instance, while "The View" will have Bill O'Reilly or Rudy Guiliani as guests, "The Talk" hosts are discussing what kind of secrets they keep from their spouses.

Ho-hum!

I rarely, if ever, watch "The View" but I at least know it's on and I know why I usually don't want to watch it.

"The Talk" though should be better than it is with a dynamic and accomplished woman like Holly Peete Robinson as one of its five hosts.

Julie Chen is OK as host of "Big Brother" and the other three women, like Sara Gilbert, must have some interesting things to discuss in their lives.

Where are those juicy topics and controversies going on and why aren't you discussing them?

Perhaps "The Talk" should be silenced ... soon.

Thanks for reading and tty Friday.
