After leaving the show in 2007 following a dispute with co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck, O’Donnell has returned to the show where she has always been unafraid to share some very bold opinions. Expect her to be loud, per usual.

There are still two seats to fill on set, and the show had previously stated that they are looking to go in an “exciting new direction.” Could we be getting-GASP!-a male co-host? Time will tell, but we're kind of hoping for The Bachelor host Chris Harrison.
