This one named permanent A list host has been in talks to bring her show back on the air.

She doesn’t need the money, but she misses having a whole bunch of people making her feel special every day.

Rosie O’Donnell talks ‘toxic’ daytime talk shows — including her own

As Rosie O’Donnell once said, her job is “mostly to entertain and be funny,” but now, she’s focusing on kindness, too.

In a new interview, the 61-year-old reflected on her time in the daytime talk show industry, giving some insight into what really happened behind the scenes.

“We had a really wonderful working environment,” O’Donnell claimed of her own production, “The Rosie O’Donnell Show,” which ran from 1996 to 2002, while speaking to “Entertainment Tonight.”

She continued: “But, you know, we were the first of that kind of show … [and] because we were the first one, and we had done it, and we had gotten so much acclaim in such a short time, you know everybody was happy.”

The comedian also revealed that she cared about her staff who worked on her talk show, giving them time off in the summers and even making sure that there was a nursery on staff for their children.

O’Donnell, who was a moderator on the popular daytime show “The View” for the 2006-2007 season, is no stranger to speaking out about a potentially hostile workplace.

Last month, she appeared on Brooke Shields’ podcast, “Now What? With Brooke Shields,” where she revealed that it was something that she would “ever do again.”

“I know this — it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness,” the “Sleepless in Seattle” star admitted during the appearance.

“It was not something I’d ever do again,” she added. – Source
