The View fans beg the show to ‘quickly’ return from hiatus & claim hosts ‘have catching up to do’ after long vacation
THE VIEW fans are begging its hosts to return to the continental U.S. and quickly.
Many have claimed the ladies "have a lot up catching up to do" after their long vacation at a resort in the Bahamas.
Fans of The View are ready to set their clocks back from island time.
Viewers were shocked when hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and guest host Ana Navarro jetted off to a working vacation to begin with.
The show filmed its late June-early July week at a pricey resort in Nassau, Bahamas - using a re-run for the last episode that week.
The talk show then took a week-long hiatus with no new episodes, and its hosts have largely stayed off social media since.

'TIME TO COME HOME'
The View will be back with new, live episodes starting Monday, July 11, ABC confirmed to .
For some, the return ticket home couldn't come sooner.
"I can’t wait for The View to return,"; one fan tweeted Sunday.
"There has been a lot to talk about in the news since The View hiatus."

Another wrote: "Yeah, I agree. I was thinking that just the other day."
While a third wrote: "It sure has. They’re going to have a lot of catching up to do."
'HOW NICE!'
To make matters worse one of the five episodes of that tropical trip - Friday's episode - was a repeat, which means the hosts only gave them four new episodes while away instead of five.
Viewers didn't understand why the hosts couldn't film a whole week's worth of episodes while there.
One upset fan earlier tweeted: “Literally all the money in the world and they couldn’t get five days of shows out of that trip to the Bahamas."
A second blasted the show, writing: “Ya’ll are in a paradise, and you couldn't give us 1 more day?”
The Sun exclusively went inside the lavish Rosewood resort where she and her co-hosts stayed.
An oceanside six-bedroom villa-setting has customers paying about $14,358 a night.
The three-bedroom penthouse suite ranges up to $12,358 a night, while a one-bedroom ocean-view suite costs around $2,577.
Viewers called out the hosts for taking the luxury vacation and "flaunting" it on social media as well.
Critics claimed that many viewers at home have been at home struggling financially.
One sarcastically wrote: “How nice. Those who are struggling to put food on their tables and gas in their cars can see a vacation spot firsthand on TV.”
Another tweeted: “Great visual. Living it up in the Bahamas while the average Joe [and] Jane can’t afford to fill up their car with gas."
BAHAMAS BLUNDERS
Whoopi, 66, alone made numerous on-air blunders while the show was filming in the Bahamas.
In a recent episode, Whoopi forgot her co-host's name after introducing musical guest, Ne-Yo.
The Oscar-winner attempted to pass the hosting duties over to her talk show colleague when she forgot co-host Sunny's name.
"And I think... what's your name?"
Whoopi recovered quickly as she spouted, "Sunny... Sunny has the first question."
She also pronounced Saturday Night Live's Chloe Fineman's name wrong.
"And she's also a scene-stealer in the reboot of Father of the Bride, please welcome Chloe Fine-a-man," she said.
Whoopi apologized and corrected herself multiple times to make sure she said the comedian's name right.
While introducing guests Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers, Whoopi had a bit of trouble pronouncing the name of their podcast, Las Culturistas.
After trying and only being able to say it as Las Culturastas instead, she eventually just gave up and one of her co-hosts helped her out.
Also while in the Bahamas, after messing up Chloe's name, Whoopi gave the outro for the show just as her cue cards flew in the air due to a gust of wind.

"Ah snap," she cursed as the paper hit her coffee mug before cameras cut to commercials.
Those are just a few of the failures Whoopi experienced in one week before she and her pals went on relative radio silence.
