David Letterman welcomes Barbara Walters back to 'The View'
"The View" will begin its 14th season on Sept. 7 with the return of Barbara Walters and a guest who's never before graced the couch: David Letterman.The CBS late-night host, who's been poking fun at Walters and Co. pretty much since "The View" debuted in 1997, will appear on the season's first show Tuesday, Sept. 7. That installment will also feature Walters' return to her regular hosting duties after undergoing surgery in May to replace a bad heart valve.
Walters' first week back will also include what ABC is calling a "'surprise' musical number" and video messages from a number of celebs.
The show is also welcoming several political guests early in the season. Former secretary of state and retired Gen. Colin Powell will be a guest on Sept. 9; his successor as secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, and current White House adviser Valerie Jarrett are also booked; Jarrett will appear Sept. 13, and Rice will co-host the show in December.
"The View" will celebrate its 3,000th show on Sept. 23 with a video retrospective, big-name guests and an audience giveaway. Flashbacks to previous seasons will also be featured in the shows leading up to the milestone.

COOL! Then he can tell those clucking hens and the viewers that he's quitting the "Late Show" and letting someone, younger, hipper and funny to take his place! RETIRE DAVE!! You, Leno, Imus and Stern are old and should GO AWAY!!
Babwa the glorified news reader with a speech impediment and slutty past; and pedo dave need to retire.
Take the disgraced larry king (ex con) and perv too.
Alex, I notice that you didn't have any specific examples of people to take Dave's mantle. Probably because there is no one talented enough to take over. And "hipper".... really? PDS, how is Dave a "pedo"? He had an affair, he manned up (inexcusable still, granted). You sure like to label people based on their sins - must be nice to be so squeaky clean.
pds, so having sex with girls in their 20's makes Dave a pedo????
You should be shot for making such an accusation.
