‘The View’ Executive Producer Brian Teta Talks 2024 Election, The Show’s Politics Uptick And Prospects For Biden And Trump Guest Shots


Brian Teta, the executive producer of The View, has signed a new contract that will keep him at the daytime talker for the next four years.

There are signs of an election-year influence in the uptick: The day after the Iowa caucuses, when ABC News chief Washington correspondent Jon Karl guested, the show’s 2.85 million viewers was its most watched telecast in nearly two years. “Every time there’s a big moment in the news cycle, whether it’s the State of the Union, or a Republican debate or anything like that, I see a spike the next morning, even in pop culture world where it’s something like the Oscars,” Teta said. If there’s some thing that former President Trump puts out on Truth Social, I can look at the minute-by-minute ratings and see that people are there in the morning, to see how Joy, Sunny, Alyssa, Sarah and Anna react to it.”
