So in comes Amanda Yu, the first in what promises to be a drawn-out series of Curiosity got the best of me.I taped it.
Amanda is 25 and married.She is a sales clerk at Nordstrom.She thinks men should always pick up the bill.She has a college loan to pay off - a slice of reality Barbara Walters seems to really like in a twentysomething host.
Amanda also has an annoying strand of hair that sticks to her lip every time she opens her mouth.I think it is safe to say she will not be leaving Nordstrom any time soon.But she is an interesting reaction to Debbie: traditional, conservative, and without so much as a television internship to her credit.
I'm all for real people on TV.But "The View" is hardly a show of real people.
