Last month, when Iyanla Vanzant’s Fix My Life returned to television for its fifth season, it marked the second decade of her relationship with America as television’s tell-like-it-is auntie.

Last night Mary Kay Letourneau - the Seattle teacher convicted of two counts of felony second degree rape of a child - and her former student/victim/now husband,Vili Fualaau, sat down with Barbara Walters to detail their ten year marriage.
Mary Kay Letourneau—perhaps America’s most famous convicted statutory rapist—plans to mark the tenth anniversary of her marriage to Vili Fualaau (yes, her former student) with a sit-down interview with Barbara Walters. Brace for another round of really fucking weird and uncomfortable coverage of this case.
As previously established, Barbara Walters' Most Fascinating People of whatever particular year it happens to be is not actually full of fascinating people. But the beat goes on regardless, and this year, Barbara decided that Amal Clooney, formerly Amal Alamuddin, was the most fascinating person of 2014 because she…
This is the umpteenth year that Barbara Walters, despite having sort-of-but-not-exactly retired, has proclaimed that she has finally, finally pinned down the world's most fascinating people. Barbara Walters is lying. She has never highlighted the world's most fascinating people–instead, she has often done quite the…
Yesterday we brought you news that The View was testing out a number of new hosts. Today we learn that during one of those test tapings, shit went down. Shit. Went. Down.

The endless goodbye parade for Barbara Walters picked up steam on The View Thursday when every single last View host – even Debbie Matenopoulos! – returned to talk about how great Walters is and make sure the day was documented. It was definitely documented.
Barbara Walters is set to officially retire from television this week, so it looks like she's sort of making the rounds before she heads out. She dropped by Weekend Update on last night's episode of SNL (hosted by a sort of tiresome Charlize Theron) to give some advice about her, um, grain of journalism and to give…
The cast of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 did a Q&A for kids this week, and star Andrew Garfield got a healthy dose of side-eye from Emma Stone when he answered the question of how Spider-Man got his suit in a particularly smarmy way.
Lindsay Lohan co-hosted The View Friday, after being led onstage (in Barbara Walters' words) "like a good daughter." During the episode, Lohan talked about her comeback, tried to talk about the craft of acting with Marisa Tomei and cooked with Sherri Shepherd.

On Thursday, she implied that it's been an open secret around ABC that Elizabeth Vargas is an alcoholic. And…
This entire conversation is so fucking gross. Barbara Walters announced on The View today that she's spent, like, a bunch of time around Woody Allen and his daughters and he is "as sensitive, and as loving and as caring" a father as she's ever seen. And also the statute of limitations has run out, so nya nya.
