Melissa Gilbert On "The Talk"

I have been upset with Julie Chen and The Talk ever since they let Leah Remini and Holly Robinson Pete go without so much as an explanation to them or their viewers.  It’s insulting to all of us and on top of that, they have ignored thousands of questions of viewers wanting to know what happened and allowed many to believe they were on some long vacation.  Luckily for Leah and holly, they have other projects to work on now and they also tell us, at Leah and Holly LIVE, that they are trying to work on something together.

Yesterday Melissa Gilbert, sister of Sarah Gilbert, was a guest on the show.  You may remember Melissa from Little House on The Prairie, as Laura Ingalls or halfpint.  Well they discussed quite a few topics and at the end of her segment was “Which Gilbert Did This” and the hosts had to guess which sister it was based on the event mentioned.  The last question was Which Gilbert Got A Pie In The Face on Television?”  To which Julie calls out, I know that’s you Sarah because I did it myself, but you won’t be the only one for long.  Then she takes out a pie and rams it into Melissa’s face.  Melissa was visibly pissed.  I could see it.  I found out this morning that she has been tweeting about the incident all last night.  Julie Chen has lost another “fan” in Melissa Gilbert, who called her “rude, rude, rude.”  I will post the link to Melissa’s Twitter below if you want to read all her comments.  

I didn’t think I could dislike Julie Chen more, but I do.  I find nothing professional or likeable about her at all.  Here are some of the things Melissa had to say from Twitter (it makes more sense to read them from the bottom up):

@TheTalk_CBS @JulieChen mash it in so hard your guest can't see. So she needs help getting off the stage.

@TheTalk_CBS @JulieChen you hit the person with the pie lightly and then immediately pull back. Don't squeeze the pie tin into their face or

@TheTalk_CBS @JulieChen here's a lesson in how to pie someone who is a guest on ur show in the face:

There’s a lesson or two for Julie to learn about how to treat people.  She thinks she is untouchable because she is married to the President of CBS  Her husband needs to be accountable to the network, to it’s shareholders and the viewing audience.  Julie is not the popular “celebrity” they want to think she is.  Many people are turned off by her and are not tuning in to watch.  Add Melissa Gilbert to the list of people who would be more than happy to live without Julie Chen!
