The show's first getaway episode, aired on June 27, was its most-watched telecast in three months.

On Twitter, the accomplishment did not go unnoticed by guest co-host Ana.

"Thanks for the View-ership!" she , adding a palm tree emoji.

OBSTRUCTED VIEW

But not every viewer liked what they saw, especially after the ladies seemed to flaunt their all-expenses paid for vacation in the days before showtime.

Over the weekend,  the hosts were seen on social media living it up at the beach, relaxing in shaded lounge chairs, enjoying decadent drinks, and tasting delicious foods.

Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin and frequent guest Ana stayed at Baha Mar in Nassau, Bahamas, where rooms can top out at $14,000 a night. 

FAN FURY

One fan sarcastically wrote on the TV personalities’ trip: “Awwww. How nice.

“Those who are struggling to put food on their tables and gas in their cars can see a vacation spot first hand on TV.”

Another commented: “Why do I want to see them having fun in some fabulous location I cannot go to?
