"Like it or not here I come!"

I felt compelled to Tivo Rosie O’Donnell’s first appearance on the 10th season opener of The View this morning, which also boasted a brand new couch-less set, decorated with flowers from Tom, and, of course, no Meredith or Star.

Talk of kids "tinkling" on the floor, tampon jokes, haircut analysis (it was "an error of epic proportions" that made children cry), the nullification of gay marriages, and mentions (and camera pans) of partner Kelly all within the first 4 minutes.

Oh and then there was a free cruise for the entire audience!

Yes, Rosie's back on daytime TV.

Over at CBS Katie Couric settled into her new role as "managing editor" of The CBS Evening News. With new segments like "freeSpeech" and "Snapshots," both seemingly directly borrowed from CBS Sunday Morning, Katie has yet to come up with a worthy "sign off" phrase, so she's lazily welcoming our input.

Didn't she have all summer to develop this?
