TMDb/The View TV The View begins spring hiatus with a repeat featuring Elisabeth Hasselbeck; Whoopi Goldberg announces Alyssa Farah Griffin's return after Easter break. May 3, 2026 AceShowbiz - The View did not broadcast a new episode on Friday, April 3, as the show began its annual spring hiatus. This pause is customary, especially because the Friday before Easter Sunday-April 5 this year-typically does not feature fresh episodes. Instead of a brand-new installment, ABC aired a repeat episode of The View which notably included former cohost Elisabeth Hasselbeck as a guest panelist.
