ABC announced on Tuesday that "The View" will be coming back for a 20th season, according to TV Line. The show's panel remains unchanged with Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg, Paula Faris, Candace Cameron-Bure, Michelle Collins and Raven-Symone on the table.
The daytime talkshow's interim showrunner, Candi Carter, will serve as the show's first African American executive producer effective immediately, according to Deadline.
"It's an honor to be part of the extraordinary legacy built by Barbara Walters, the exceptional, funny and smart women at the table led by Whoopi Goldberg, and a terrific team behind the scenes," said Carter, according to Variety. "Every day is a thrill."
"The View" has been struggling with ratings, with viewership plunging during Season 18 following the departure of Rosie O'Donnell, Rosie Perez and Nicolle Wallace. However, the numbers are looking much better with this season, with the show taking the top-spot with 2.97 million viewers for the second week in a row, beating its rival, CBS' "The Talk," among the key demographic.
"This season 'The View' has once again been at the very heart of the political conversation and cultural conversation in America," said ABC News President James Goldston. "Candi and the team have worked tirelessly to make 'The View' the place to be heard for an impressive roster of celebrities, politicians and people in the news."
