<P> On October 30, 2014, ABC announced that responsibilities for production oversight on The View would shift from ABC's daytime entertainment division to Lincoln Square Productions, an ABC News subsidiary, where the show will be grouped under the division's non-fiction programming umbrella . The move allowed the show to leverage ABC News' resources toward news - related segments . In August 2015, it was reported that former Late Show with David Letterman producer Brian Teta would be joining the show as co-executive producer . Later in the month, executive producer Bill Wolff was announced to be departing the show . During season 19, the show introduced an aftershow entitled After the View, which was available through live streaming . In February 2016, along with the show's twentieth season renewal, Candi Carter was promoted to executive producer after serving as interim showrunner for season 19, becoming the first African - American executive producer in the show's history . </P> <P> During the twentieth - season premiere on September 6, 2016, the show debuted an updated set design with muted colors, retooled opening titles with footage of the co-hosts in a loft - like space, as well as a new theme song entitled "World's Gone Crazy", written by Diane Warren and performed by Mary J. Blige . Hilary Estey McLoughlin was named senior executive producer in January 2017 after she was brought on as a consultant for season 19 . In September, the show promoted Teta to executive producer ahead of its 21st - season premiere . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Co-host </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Years </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th_colspan="21"> Seasons </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> 5 </Th> <Th> 6 </Th> <Th> 7 </Th> <Th> 8 </Th> <Th> 9 </Th> <Th> 10 </Th> <Th> 11 </Th> <Th> 12 </Th> <Th> 13 </Th> <Th> 14 </Th> <Th> 15 </Th> <Th> 16 </Th> <Th> 17 </Th> <Th> 18 </Th> <Th> 19 </Th> <Th> 20 </Th> <Th> 21 </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Barbara Walters </Td> <Td> 1997--2014 </Td> <Td_colspan="17"> </Td> <Td_colspan="4"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Joy Behar </Td> <Td> 1997--2013; 2015--present </Td> <Td_colspan="16"> </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Meredith Vieira </Td> <Td> 1997--2006 </Td> <Td_colspan="9"> </Td> <Td_colspan="12"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Star Jones </Td> <Td> 1997--2006 </Td> <Td_colspan="9"> </Td> <Td_colspan="12"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Debbie Matenopoulos </Td> <Td> 1997--1999 </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> <Td_colspan="19"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Lisa Ling </Td> <Td> 1999--2002 </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> <Td_colspan="16"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Elisabeth Hasselbeck </Td> <Td> 2003--2013 </Td> <Td_colspan="5"> </Td> <Td_colspan="11"> </Td> <Td_colspan="5"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Rosie O'Donnell </Td> <Td> 2006--2007; 2014--2015 </Td> <Td_colspan="9"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> <Td_colspan="7"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Whoopi Goldberg </Td> <Td> 2007--present </Td> <Td_colspan="10"> </Td> <Td_colspan="11"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Sherri Shepherd </Td> <Td> 2007--2014 </Td> <Td_colspan="10"> </Td> <Td_colspan="7"> </Td> <Td_colspan="4"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Jenny McCarthy </Td> <Td> 2013--2014 </Td> <Td_colspan="16"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> <Td_colspan="4"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Rosie Perez </Td> <Td> 2014--2015 </Td> <Td_colspan="17"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Nicolle Wallace </Td> <Td> 2014--2015 </Td> <Td_colspan="17"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Raven - Symoné </Td> <Td> 2015--2016 </Td> <Td_colspan="17"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Michelle Collins </Td> <Td> 2015--2016 </Td> <Td_colspan="18"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Paula Faris </Td> <Td> 2015--present </Td> <Td_colspan="18"> </Td> <Td_colspan="3"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Candace Cameron Bure </Td> <Td> 2015--2016 </Td> <Td_colspan="18"> </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> <Td_colspan=""1""> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Sara Haines </Td> <Td> 2016--present </Td> <Td_colspan="19"> </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Sunny Hostin </Td> <Td> 2016--present </Td> <Td_colspan="19"> </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Jedediah Bila </Td> <Td> 2016--2017 </Td> <Td_colspan="19"> </Td> <Td_colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Meghan McCain </Td> <Td> 2017--present </Td> <Td_colspan="20"> </Td> <Td_colspan="1"> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Tr> <Th> Co-host </Th> </Tr>
