  "account": "ABC’s “The View” commenced its thirtieth season on Tuesday morning, and to mark the occasion, host Alyssa Farah Griffin initiated a game of trivia about her fellow co-hosts’ experiences on the show. Regrettably, the hosts on the ABC program faltered quite disappointingly in their attempt to recall such details. The game, dubbed “Let’s Re-View It,” involved a randomly chosen host attempting to identify which of two presented scenarios had indeed occurred on the show. The first participant, Joy Behar, set a record this season by hosting more seasons of an American talk show than any other woman. Griffin posed a question to Behar: \"Did you join Barbara Walters on a seesaw, or attack your own likeness with a chainsaw?\" Behar's response was unequivocal: \"None of the above.\" The correct answer was the latter, as evidenced by the available footage. In this instance, Behar had been shown a wood-carved statue of herself, which she felt was too large in the rear. To remedy this, she had taken a chainsaw to the statue to reduce its size. The next contestant, Sunny Hostin, struggled to recall whether she had learned how to \"strike a blow\" from a martial arts expert or \"strike a pose\" from a model. The latter scenario, where Tyra Banks taught her how to take a proper selfie, was the accurate one. Moderator Whoopi Goldberg, however, did not attempt to recall any of her trivia questions, stating, \"I have no idea what that was.\" The same sentiment echoed from Sara Haines and Ana Navarro, who also failed to remember their respective trivia answers. Eventually, the focus returned to Behar, who was presented with another memory: did she \"locate the G-spot on a 3D model or model a G-string on your head?\" Behar's co-host Whoopi Goldberg stepped in to recall the correct answer, attributing it to Behar's departure from the table. \"The View\" is broadcast weekdays at 11 a.m. ET on ABC.",
