Walters called in on Tuesday’s show to say she will be back next Monday. The newswoman laughed, “They wanted to me to have rest, I have had enough rest… it's time for me to come back!”
Joy told Calloway, “She sounds like her same old self to us.” Shepherd added, “For Barbara to be still for this amount of time, not doing anything, that's torture.”

Rielle Hunter was in the hot seat on Tuesday’s episode of “The View.” Whoopi Goldberg and Barbara Walters weren’t about to let John Edwards’ infamous mistress off easy.
Rielle, who had just announced her split from the former presidential candidate on “Good Morning America,” got off to a rocky start when Barbara introduced her as "the sexy blonde who husbands can't resistTalk show co-host Whoopi Goldberg was asking questions on "The View" with guest Claire Danes, when she accidentally let out a fart.
Joy Behar, who was sitting next to Goldberg, turned to her cohort in horror, while Whoopi put her hand on her stomach and handled the awkward situation like a pro. She joked, "Excuse me, I just let a frog outta there," motioning to her backside.
On a special "Oprah Winfrey Show" Friday, the talk show host reunited her co-stars from the 1985 Oscar-winning film "The Color Purple" -- and addressed her longtime misunderstanding with actress and "View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg.
Choking up during the interview, Oprah told the story of how Whoopi cleared up the rumors that the two didn't get along.
"Whoopi came up to me and she said, can I just ask you something? Really. She said, can I just ask you something?" Oprah recalled. "Did I do something to you? And I said -- I said, what are you talking about? She says, all these years, you know, we've been disconnected and I just want to know, did I do something? I said, all these years I thought you were mad at me."
Watch the emotional reunion.
"The View" co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar took a calmer moment this morning to discuss the blowup with FOX News host Bill O'Reilly last Thursday.
"He started with me as soon as he sat down," Goldberg explained, referring to O'Reilly's comments on the Muslim mosque being built near Ground Zero, which culminated in the newsman declaring "Muslims killed us on 9/11."
The dust-up between FOX News host Bill O'Reilly and Joy Behar of "The View" continued when both went on the air later to defend their reactions.
On his show, O'Reilly replayed the explosive confrontation on "The View," in which he spoke his mind about a Muslim community center and mosque proposed for near Ground Zero, causing co-hosts Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg to walk off the set.
Although he apologized to Behar and Goldberg, on his own show, O'Reilly did not back down from his words. He said that he did not want to insult Muslims, but was "tired of the political correctness surrounding the 9/11 attack. The truth is that if moderate Muslims around the world stood with Americans against radical Islam, the terrorists couldn't exist... I'm not in the business of sugarcoating harsh realities." Watch!
FOX News host Bill O'Reilly angered "The View" co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar when the discussion turned to the Muslim community center and mosque being built near Ground Zero.
O'Reilly said the project was "inappropriate" because "a lot of the 9/11 families, who I know, say, 'Look, we don't want that, that shouldn't be there'" and cited an opinion poll that said 70 percent of people agreed with him.
When Goldberg and Behar pressed him on his feelings about it, O'Reilly finally said, ""Because Muslims killed us on 9/11," causing both hosts to walk off the stage for a short period of time.
