. Still, there was an intimidation factor during her time as a regular guest co-host this past season, and two of her fellow panelists stood out.The 33-year-old revealed to ET's Rachel Smith that debating Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin came with its own set of challenges. For starters, Behar is known for not pulling any punches, especially when it comes to her own convictions.
Secondly, coming in prepared is paramount, and Griffin credits Hostin for underscoring that notion.«So it's funny, I came in most afraid of Joy,» she tells ET. «She's an icon, but the thing with Joy is she's so funny that when she does really come after you, she ends with humor, which is the best.»A cut that's kind of like a tickle, if you will.«Exactly,» Griffin agrees. «I'm like, I can deal with that.
And Sunny is someone who I love and I adore her because she's brilliant. She's prepared and, like, you are not gonna get by just doing talking points and thinking that she's not gonna come back at you with, like, a whole list of receipts. And so they've both been intimidating, but excellent to work with, and I think iron sharpens iron.

The start of the end. Meghan McCain revealed the moment when she realized she was ready to leave The View — and Joy Behar played a big role in the decision.
“The Commentary Magazine Podcast” that it was something Behar told her on-air right after she returned from maternity leave in January of that year that made her realize she needed to leave the ABC talk show for good.“I finally went back to the show, and the day I went back to the show, Joy Behar said on air, ‘Nobody missed you, we didn’t miss you, you shouldn’t have come back,’” McCain said. “I started hysterically crying. Sorry gentlemen, I know, I started lactating on air, and crying, hysterical.”McCain explained that after the on-air moment, she went back to her dressing room and called her brother, who helped her decide that the show wasn’t right for her anymore.“I didn’t feel supported when I had my baby, and I didn’t feel supported coming back, and that was ultimately it,” she added.
