Rosie's Big Plan
Filed under: Rosie O'Donnell
And the queen of nice controversy is thisclose to being back!
Yes, Rosie O'Donnell is said to have a potential new show in the works with NBC.
According to reports, Peacock honchos Ben Silverman and Jeff Zucker are said to like Rosie's idea for a new show, one that she's had for a long time.
They hope to have the show on the air by 2009 with a similar feel to The Ed Sullivan Show.
Supposedly Rosie would like to do it live and from a Broadway theater type of setting. Somewhere that she could host skits and different acts - comedy, music, etc.
Rosie has apparently been shopping the idea around since 2002, though no one's picked it up.
We're not sure if the timing is all that great.
Jay Leno's contract will be ending in May 2009 when he steps down from The Tonight Show and reports are that NBC is very keen on having him do some type of prime-time variety show.
What do U think. Would U watch Rosie's?

why do people write first?
Of course! Loves her!
boooo!
first
For sure! I love Ro Ro!
Rosie O'Donnell was only cool in "A League of Their Own".
Because she didn't talk too much.
SHE'S A BIG FAT NASTY BITCH AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT NOW!!!!!!!
Jay Leno steps down, but Connan takes over.
Maybe she's plugging in for Conan. Cool.
maybe~
ya, first bitches~!

BOO you suck Rosie
YES! BRING ROSIE BACK! I love you girl! Keep saying what's on your mind, the world needs more people like you!
Absolutely - would watch anything with Rosie -so miss her talk show and even watched the View for the year she was there - congrats Rosie!!
the only reason I ever watched the View was to see Rosie bitch at Hassleback. Whoopi and that Sherry lady are far too subdued.
Go Rosie
Go Rosie!!
NO!!! She is nothing but a hate filled woman. I'm so happy that she is not on the view anymore.
Yes!
would definitely watch it! go rosie!
all y'all rednecks and bush c*ck svckers can just go f*ck your mamas and papas! love rosie. btw, why's that stupid elizabeth ho still on air?
OMG! she looks like the typical jonas bros. fan with less underarm hair.
people don't seem to like her anymore. not sure about this one.
I liked some of the shows she did.. D:
Although I'm not quite sure if I would watch this.
No Way! Rosie SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS… keep that loud mouth off TV!!!
Sounds dumb. It will get cancelled and no-i wont watch.
I would watch Rosie! She's awesome!
i wouldnt watch anything with that stupid bitch on it!!! she's a nut!
I love controversies…Bring it on.
I might even have to get a satellite dish and Tivo, just so I can watch it. Anything with Rosie has got to be good.
I would surely do! Rosie was the main reason I watched The View. I don't care to know if she is nice or not. She's smart and funny and that's really what matters to me.
I dont know why people hate her so much and on the other hand I also dont know why some just love her. She's just sorta there with an attitude and a mouth. So what?
Leno will be perfect for a classy prime time Variety Show. It's about time those were brought back. He'll ultimately feel much freer after losing the heavy yoke of being tied to a desk 365 days a year. He'll get out more and will be able to smell the roses and finally really enjoy what he's reaped. Go, Jay.
Definitely I would watch - love Rosie
lolz, that would be a waste of the broadcasters money to get her back on the air! who really wants to see big gay rosie whine about her love life on tv? i for one would not watch her at all! i have watched her in the past and all she does is talk about her gf….borring!
And her first guest will be……..ELIZABETH HASSLEBACK.
NO WAYY! 37th bithes. even though 69 is much sexier
No way! I have had enough of her rants.This woman has a problem, she always needs to find the spotlight.She needs therapy to get rid of all that hate she spews.For Rosie to say the government blew up buildings on 9/11,she needs a doctor, more than another talk show.She gives gays around the world a bad name.When people hear her talk all her hate,bitterness, and just a plain old bully, they think gays are all rotten like her.And we are not!!!
No..I was really turned off by her on the view
YES! What else is on TV that is fun to watch? I say make it a blend of Carol Burnett / Ed Sullivan / Mike Douglas / Merv Griffin.
Just what TV needs - that insane, raging egomaniac with another forum to dribble her phoney niceness. I wouldn't watch her do anything. She is among the least interesting former celebrities out there.
No.
totally!
Rosie is perfect for that gig. I'm not interested in seeing Leno in that context, snooze. Team Rosie!
i'd def watch. love rosie.
GOO ROOOOOO !!!
YAHOO! I would welcome her back - the View has lost all of it's appeal, and Elizabitch still carries on with her Republican right nut wing conservative ways. I will take Rosie back ANYWAY we can get her ! Good news !
Hell yeah, go Ro Ro ;0)
I used to LOVE Rosie, but not so much anymore, I find her big mouth now embarrasing, and wonder what I ever liked about her to begin with. But when she was on VH1 she was fucking funny. so to answer you, Hell NO I wont watch her new show, in fact I may write a strongly worded letter to anyone who picks her up!
I think the majority of people can't stand her. She needs to go away already. Hasn't she had enough chances and failed?
There's no way Jay Leno is going to stay w/ NBC after his run is over. Didn't he just say something semi-snarky about them a week or two ago? He'll go to ABC or FOX for a late night show. As for Rosie's show, if she keeps politics out of it I think it's worth checking out. But she has the Tom Cruise syndrome…she went crazy and now no one likes her. Not sure how well her show will do.
No way Jose! Won't watch the Beeeattch!
I would soooooooooooo watch this. I'm sick of all the crap on TV. An old school Carol Burnett show would be awesome to watch and Rosie could pull it off.
HELLZ YEAH! I Heart Rosie.
Well, I do love Rosie but variety shows have pretty much had their day. It's Rosie I want to see, not acts she introduces.
Of course I would watch Ro….she is a great talent…it took me a while to realize it as I had some wrong impressions about her…I think she will do well at whatever she decides to do. Hopefully, NBC will back her and try to get her some good talent to work with. I think she could easily do a sit-com too. Maybe, she should model her show after Gleason…and, do some of her own skits. She has more talent than Ed Sullivan that's for sure.
I'd watch anything with Rosie, I love her!
She is one miserable, hate- filled, sad individual. I think she offers nothing to our society. I won't be watching anything she does.
YEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!
She'll never get her own show. She made her choice…because her opinions are so important..she has succeeded in pissing off more than half of the viewing public. That's a big number..one the networks don't like. Not only wouldn't people watch, they'd probably boycott sponsors. I'm not for that, I don't condone it, I'm just reporting it. The bottom line is she went from entertainment's most liked performing, to one of the most disliked. She did this to herself because she doesn't know how to keep her mouth shut. Personally, I turn the channel when i see her.
hells no, can't stand her negativity.
Thank you Sweet Baby Jeez-ass!
Rosie's days are over. She needs to retire and permanently leave the limelight. There is no way she would outperform Jay Leno
ROSIE IS A FAT FUCKTARD!!!
I love Rosie, but variety shows are not my thing. GOOD LUCK ROSIE!!!!
Yes! I love her. She speaks for many!!
PEREZ: You are sure looking good. Are you going to share your weight loss secrets with us???
hell no! snoozefest for sure!!! nobody wants to hear her loudmouth any more on tv!
If Rosie stuck to what she knows best, comedy then maybe. But she won't. Here's how things will go; Month one; Be a nice variety show, no agenda just fun. Month 2; The 1st cracks about politics begin, but all in fun. Month 3; Politics get heavier, less fun, Rosie starts getting angry. Month 4; Fun is all gone. Turns into political platform for her to spew her venom about her country. She turns into monster bitch. "Why does all this happen?" Because Rosie is a phony deep down. She wants to be political without becoming a politician because there is less money in it. She wants her cake and eat it too.
"The Rosie Ooo Song".

Sung to the tune of the Scoobie Doo Song
“Rosie Rosie Ooo,
Where are you?
We miss your rants on TV now,
.
All the other gals,
Are just cows,
You wore the pants for sure gal.
.
When it is all said and done you had your fun,
You rocked, you had your way,
hey hey, hey,
.
Now you are doing something new and they can screw,
Your through eating their hay,
hey, hey, hey,
.
Rosie Rosie Ooo,
We luv you,
In spite that you are Rosie,
.
No one else we know,
Can do a show,
The way that you do what you do!”

The Rosie View Song
sung to the tune of ‘The Flintstones Song’
.
Rosie, she’s our Rosie,
She spouts to our unending glee,
.
from her home of The View,
She skews the news for all to see,
.
Someday, will our Rosie lose the fight,
Go straight, join the Republicians and the Right,
Oh no, we don’t think so,
.
She’ll have a gabba gabba do time,
More gabba do time,
She’ll have a gay old time!”

Yes, I would watch her show. She always makes me laugh .. even if she sometimes goes too far. Go Rosie …
NO!!! I can not stand her. NBC doesnt have that many good shows and theres one more for ppl NOT to watch
Re: true – The show is not going to f@cking turn into a political platform…chill! I would watch Rosie, especially when compared to Leno who really does suck!
I love Rosie! I think she is a great woman and I would love to see her with a new show!
Shut up Rosie you fat ugly dyke.
I would watch rosie! She is funny, jay leno is not.
Rosie's washed up and old. Young, HOT lesbians are the new Rosie.
Her bitter,hateful, lesbian thing has gotten really old.
I would love to watch Rosie. She will have a great show if she gets her say in what goes into the production.
Hell ya I will watch it- I bet it will be great!!
Yes I will watch Rosie. I will watch anything she does.
Rosie's washed up and old. Hot young lesbians are the new Rosie.
Ewww I can't believe someone is giving this Hater a chance to dictate her ideas again! Seems like the only one who can have an opinion is Rosie, if you don't totally agree with her, she shouts you down and won't speak to you ever again. We should all be so lucky.
Oompa, Loompa, Loompity-Doo…..
Yes of course I will watch ANYTHING that ROSIE does!!! I love her. She's amazing and so missed on TV. C'mon back RO!!!
Oompa Loompa Loompity-Doo….
Re: Rash – YOUR NOT A POET
AND DON'T KNOW IT!
BY LETTYB
Hell Yeah, we need a fun and funny skit show instead of all the fake reality bs!
Fuck no. This bitch is done.
Oh yes, I have missed Rosie and her many talents. I love her honesty and only she could pull off a Variety Show, which in my opinion is long over do. I am not a fan of Reality TV. Go Rosie!
YES!!!! I LOVE ROSIE! I CAN'T WAIT
hell no. this bitch is fat, ugly, and too old to be on tv. SHE IS DONE.
Rosie is one of the only personalities on TV that shoots from the hip without worrying what the execs think. I would watch her show in a heartbeat, this woman will always be the real deal, fuck all you shallow bitches! She's stronger than you!
love her honesty and humor! will watch for sure!
Re: chris – : How about she's TOO OLD AND SUCCESSFUL TO GIVE A FUCK WHETHER YOU HATE HER OR NOT (That doesn't amount to bitterness)! YOU STUPID STUPID BITCH.
OF COURSE, I'd watch. No matter what you say about her personally, she is talented and is funny.
Probably not going to watch. Don't get me wrong, I love Rosie. But she has been so angry over EVERYTHING for so many years, I don't want to dedicate time to listening to the rants.
Hell Yes! Rosie Rulez!
Rosie, email me!!
Of course!!! Will watch!!
