Video: New Joy Behar show looks exactly as awesome as you’d expect

posted at 6:21 pm on September 21, 2009 by Allahpundit

To cleanse the palate, a sneak preview of her new gig proving that not even a pedestrian Springer-esque “final thought” about spanking is safe from JB’s preoccupation with the Iraq war. Only eight days ’til launch. Tivo Season Pass? Set.

The era of Fox News dominance is at an end, my friends.

Let me know when she has Helen Thomas as a guest…

… I’ll lube myself up, slap on the surgical gloves, and break out the gallon tub of mayonnaise!

Good times, good times…

ROFLMAO! You owe me a new monitor & a can of Coke!
Darn that hurts through the nose!

Thread winner!

WOW

I didn’t think CNN ratings could fall any further in the toilet. Guess whoever hired Behar decided to flush.

chicagojedi on September 21, 2009 at 6:28 PM

Yes, appears they are going for gold in the idiot olympics.

unwashed minion on September 21, 2009 at 7:05 PM

That was painful.

batter on September 21, 2009 at 7:05 PM

If only her parents had spanked her enough, who knows how Joy would have turned out.

manofaiki on September 21, 2009 at 7:06 PM

mattshu on September 21, 2009 at 7:01 PM

Yup. And if the kid has a working brain, it only takes a few spankings to get them through life.

Ugly on September 21, 2009 at 7:08 PM

I actually made it 44 seconds. First class idiot. Cliche ridden, not funny.

chewydog on September 21, 2009 at 7:09 PM

/sigh. Here we go again. I give it 4 weeks and it’ll be canceled.

Static on September 21, 2009 at 7:09 PM

She should stick to punishment themes since that’s what comes to mind when people think of her.

Carolina Kat on September 21, 2009 at 7:10 PM

I really think her co-host Sherri Shepherd is dumber than her.

NathanG on September 21, 2009 at 7:11 PM

I would rather pay 10 people to spank 20 acorn employees then play the video.

christene on September 21, 2009 at 7:13 PM

I’ll bet her first guest is Jimmy Carter.

SouperConservative on September 21, 2009 at 7:17 PM

How is it people with no discernible talent keep getting TV jobs?

JammieWearingFool on September 21, 2009 at 7:19 PM

I’ll bet her first guest is Jimmy Carter.

SouperConservative on September 21, 2009 at 7:17 PM

Joy wants Jimmy to spank her.

Jeff from WI on September 21, 2009 at 7:20 PM

how many kids does she have?

otcconan on September 21, 2009 at 7:23 PM

Good Lord she has her own show? Who let that happen?

marklmail on September 21, 2009 at 7:24 PM

Kickboxers? I’ve kickboxed for 26 years, the hell she talking about? I’ve never seen anyone get spanked in the ring. By the way, if my kids doesn’t listen or are fresh, they pretty much know they’re getting a swat.

Alden Pyle on September 21, 2009 at 7:24 PM

Oh yes. Explain to your 12 month old why it is a bad idea to run out into the street. Perhaps you could start with the concept of mass by running over a watermelon to demonstrate the danger. Your 12 month old will forever be afraid of watermelon and cars, but whatever it takes to keep them safe.
 
Seriously, does Joy Behar have some kind of experience that makes here an expert on raising children? Does she have children? If so, how have they turned out?

ClanDerson on September 21, 2009 at 7:26 PM

I’ve got one living at home yet.He’s 6’3″ 290lbs and I’d still kick his …

Jeff from WI on September 21, 2009 at 7:27 PM

If Joy can have a show I see no reason Helen Thomas can’t either.

Jeff from WI on September 21, 2009 at 7:28 PM

Robin Meade in the morning, Joy Behar in the evenings. Start your day on HLN with one of the most attractive women in the world; end your day with one of the least attractive women in the world.

radjah shelduck on September 21, 2009 at 7:31 PM

I’ll bet her first guest is Jimmy Carter.

Ok……I’ll ask.

Who the hell is Joy Behar and why should I care?

Techie on September 21, 2009 at 7:32 PM

I wiki’d her; Behar’s got one adult daughter who is a professional ceramic artist, married to a doctor.

SouperConservative on September 21, 2009 at 7:33 PM

SSHHH don’t discourage her. I’ll be rid of her in a couple weeks.

She’s a no talent nobody and you really shouldn’t care.

I watched the whole thing. Pay up. ;)

Sadly, although Joy’s sex change operation in 1963 was considered a success, she cannot have children.

professional ceramic artist?? She makes ash trays?

Jeff from WI on September 21, 2009 at 7:40 PM

Good Lord.

It almost played like a parody. Had me laughing though…

I bet CNN is hoping for a govment bailout after the 29th.

RedbonePro on September 21, 2009 at 7:43 PM

Idjit.

Joy, did your parents spank you? No? I rest my case.

Cindy Munford on September 21, 2009 at 7:51 PM

I’d love to spank Joy on the air.

“It’s not I spank therefore I am”…
take that !

“It’s not I spank therefore I am”…Taking a stupid philosoper’s stupid musing and making it more stupid.

She’s a comedienne, right? What is her joke?

JKahn913 on September 21, 2009 at 7:58 PM

Ann Coulter needs to be her guest and kick her liberal behind again!

yoda on September 21, 2009 at 8:01 PM

Liberals like JB are so old hat. The spanking thing was gone over in 80s. Next thing she’ll come up with is Bugs Bunny cartoons need to be banned.

I can’t expect anything else from people who hold to a long and oft-debunked 19th Century political theory called Marxism.

Liam on September 21, 2009 at 8:02 PM

Still, she did beat Wolf Blitzer on “Celebrity Jeopardy.”

That’s right CNN, pick up Joy B. to really back up your cred as a tough no nonsense news network..LOLOL

THinks stay the same FOX gets the babes, CNN gets the bags.

Jeff from WI on September 21, 2009 at 8:12 PM

For other had told her that she is holier than thou. And being a devout follower of the Liberal(pbuh) she did believe it, ye verily she did know it. And so it came to pass that high upon her throne she did preacheth the word of the Liberal(pbuh).

Onus on September 21, 2009 at 8:20 PM

Jeff from WI on September 21, 2009 at 7:40 PM

I’m sure it’s something much more noteworthy, like candy dishes.

SouperConservative on September 21, 2009 at 8:38 PM

Clearly the thing keeping me from being a millionaire with my own TV Show is a complete lack of self respect, just a smidgen of intelligence, and complete ignorance of what a total jackhole I am.

Oh, and the joy of hearing myself talk. Actually pretty close on that one.

juanito on September 21, 2009 at 8:42 PM

These people are just so freaking tarded. I get so tired of listening to their stupidity over and over. They are just so full of themselves. Is this woman even married?? Does she even have kids??
Libs don’t really believe this drivel either. They just do not want parents spanking their kids. It will be ok for the Obama Civilian Core to take your little brat and spank their rear ends and much more if they don’t obey the policies of the big O,, let me tell ya!
This is not about protecting children. It is about turning children against their parents and making them wards of the state.

Libs always exempt themselves from everything. Michael Moore eats like a pig, has a carbon footprint the size of Texas and has gotten rich on capitalism. Look at the hypocrisy of Al Gore and Obama. Look at the hypocrisy of congress. They exempt themselves from everything they push on us from paying their taxes to healthcare.
If they ban spanking,, it will only be banned for parents. The libs will use brute force on our children to make them obey and keep them in line! That is the way it will be and the way it always has been!
Besides,, if spanking is abuse then just what the heck is abortion?! A little baby half out of the womb who is allowed to be ripped to pieces by his mother is applauded. Some snotty brat who gets a wake up call by a few smacks on his rear end by another mother is abuse! Get serious!

JellyToast on September 21, 2009 at 8:48 PM

The belt of MO, the mouth of Joy, the babble of Jimmy, and the truth from Joe…this sideshow is spectacular!

redwhiteblue on September 21, 2009 at 8:52 PM

The last time I saw a mouth that looked like that, it had a hook in it.

perroviejo on September 21, 2009 at 8:52 PM

At least Fran Drescher might be fun to spank.

theTarCzar on September 21, 2009 at 6:36 PM

I agree ! FD is a hot lil’ piece of ACE! :-D

Joyless Blowhard not so much ! X-P

Not this time. CNN got The Bag.

Thanks to this “Moment of Joy” I now know why an animal will gnaw off its paw to get out of a trap.

ya2daup on September 21, 2009 at 9:18 PM

As a mother who spanks (and in my household, it is rarely necessary), I can say emphatically that my kids are much more well-behaved than the obnoxious brats being raised by my non-spanking friends. Joy, spend 30 minutes with my one friend’s 6 and 8 year olds, and I guarantee you’ll change your mind. Spending time with those kids is like a conservative watching that clip of your show.

SouperConservative on September 21, 2009 at 9:20 PM

The era of Fox News dominance is at an end, my friends.

Bah hahahaha!

Another reason not to turn on CNN, Joy, ignorant loud mouth has a show. Wow, they are really lacking talent. Bets on how long she stays on the air? Ratings?

njpat on September 21, 2009 at 9:26 PM

Spanking is one of the most important tools a parent has to love their children.

It shows the parent cares.
It provides feedback to create understanding of limits.
It is intimate and reinforces the parent-child relationship.
It is cheaper than hiring a therapist.
It lets the child know ‘who the f’in boss is’ and thus suppresses any developing rebellion within the union….uh family.

When properly used spanking is a civilizing influence in an otherwise barbaric world.

Yes, I was spanked, but never once did I NOT deserve it.

:)

Sapwolf on September 21, 2009 at 9:28 PM

By the way, I have no idea if Joy B. talked about spanking in that clip. But I’m never gonna click on a JB clip short of being waterboarded.

Sapwolf on September 21, 2009 at 9:29 PM

She did, and I’m sure it is much like waterboarding. As a matter of fact, maybe they should play that clip over and over for the terror suspects in NY & CO. I bet they get full confessions right away.

SouperConservative on September 21, 2009 at 9:40 PM

Liam on September 21, 2009 at 8:02 PM

I hope and pray she does… I’ve lost count of how many people that I’ve hit over the head with a frying pan hoping to see their head assume the pan’s shape and then spring back… it’s a compulsion I tell you… thank you, thank you, thank you for allowing me to confess… save me, Joy, save me!

cannot tell you how many people that

ya2daup on September 21, 2009 at 9:43 PM

I hope the executive who decided to give this Unmensch her own show ends up serving me Whoppers at 2:30a.m. when the bars close.

What an unmitigated disaster.

David2.0 on September 21, 2009 at 9:59 PM

There’s nothing joyful about her. Her parents probably were just engaging in wishful thinking when they named her such. Anyway, she probably couldn’t bear watching Road Runner always beating up on Wile E Coyote.

miron on September 21, 2009 at 10:01 PM

I’m glad she doesn’t speak Spanish. Latinos would be laughing the a@@es off. My mom didn’t speak a lick of English but damn she knew what a C was. I paid for one dearly. Never again.

meMC on September 21, 2009 at 10:28 PM

She beat Wolf Blitzer on Jeopardy? I could do that, by standing there and not answering a single question. Dude was in the negative column so deep it was stupid. The next time he walks down to someone they ought to laugh in his face.

thmsmgnm on September 21, 2009 at 10:33 PM

What a monumental simp. This hateful woman has had her 15 minutes and that was 14 minutes too many.

Bert Convy on September 21, 2009 at 10:39 PM

As each the Monsterettes grew big enough to walk, they quickly decided they were big enough to wiggle out of holding hands with Mom or Dad and running out in the street. That got their glutes smacked immediately, because they had to know that was something that was going to hurt them. My open hand on the backside caused momentary pain, but never so much as bruised them.

A car hitting them would have caused permanent damage, and most likely death. So in my mind, not spanking kids for running out in the street without adult escort is irresponsible parenting.

The Monster on September 21, 2009 at 10:51 PM

I for one am very glad that Joy is on TV; SO I CAN TURN IT OFF.

The Rock on September 21, 2009 at 11:09 PM

So now there is video proof of the old maxim about lipstick and a certain farm animal.

Vashta.Nerada on September 21, 2009 at 11:13 PM

It seems to me that since Marines have to qualify as riflemen every year, so should comedians. There should be a comedian qual test every year to see who can and cannot bear the title. I am sick of Bill Maher, Joy Behar, and Janeane Garofalo claiming the title when they are not funny…ever.

Seriously, at what point was that even funny? She dated Descartes? What?

Rightwingguy on September 21, 2009 at 11:55 PM

The Monster on September 21, 2009 at 10:51 PM

Years ago, I went through a phase where I would phsyically strike my mother. She tried reasoning with me “Honey, it’s not nice to hit people”, etc. Finally, she just had enough and corrected me through repeated strikes upon my gluteus maximus and strangely that cleared up the problem.

Rightwingguy on September 21, 2009 at 11:57 PM

Don’t lift youa hand to them, lift youa muynd to them.

Pure, concentrated brilliance, that.

applebutter on September 22, 2009 at 12:06 AM

Joy Behar is a nasty, hateful person with little knowledge but a big, loud mouth. I don’t see a comedianne in her at all, just a classless, miserable person whose attempts at comedy are wrapped in ignorance and a delusional opinion that what she thinks matters. CNN has really lost its way on this one.

oldoldbabs on September 22, 2009 at 1:20 AM

I really think her co-host Sherri Shepherd is dumber than her.

NathanG on September 21, 2009 at 7:11 PM

Which is the shame, really.

Sherri really *is* a dumb ass.

On the other hand, Joy is not an idiot… she is a misguided idealogue.

Which one is more dangerous?

jana on September 22, 2009 at 1:41 AM

“A new survey says” From where? glad to see she’s keeping those solid sources.
Is she really getting her own show or is this Punked?

oakpack on September 22, 2009 at 3:52 AM

Oh, that’s what Descartes meant. Priceless.

cackcon on September 22, 2009 at 7:08 AM

Whatever is she thinking? Still, stranger things have happened, though not very many.

jeanie on September 22, 2009 at 8:09 AM

I had to look twice, I thought it was Keith Olberwoman with his glasses off.

nelsonknows on September 22, 2009 at 8:11 AM

NOT a great thinker….

sonofdy on September 22, 2009 at 9:29 AM

And now a word from our sponsor, the Gloria Wise Boys and Girls Club!

saint kansas on September 22, 2009 at 9:37 AM

Why do sponsors buy ad time for shows like this? Do they get any bang for their buck because I’m sure it won’t be a ratings topper.

Kissmygrits on September 22, 2009 at 10:01 AM

That made me want to go home and spank my kids

doonuts on September 22, 2009 at 10:20 AM

Just what I needed – parenting advice from Joyless Behar.

Does anyone really take her seriously? Does she expect anyone to?

UltimateBob on September 22, 2009 at 11:07 AM

Typical leftist drivel…

Wyznowski on September 22, 2009 at 11:23 AM

Harpy.

Badger40 on September 22, 2009 at 11:32 AM

Can’t fool me, AP. I know you’ll be drawing the shades and watching this naked, with a bag of Cheetos.

SKYFOX on September 22, 2009 at 11:37 AM

The Behar show is an insult to the ignorance of American people. Any advertisers on her show cannot be trusted and should be dealt with accordingly.

volsense on September 22, 2009 at 12:00 PM

Oh my gosh, that smart lady on TV is right! I will stop spanking my children immediately because if she, as a good and caring liberal, says it it must be true! That’s the best she can do? What a deep thinker!
