ABC producers are in talks with Joy Behar and Sherri Shepherd will return to "The View," the Daily Mail reports. 

"The View's" current hosting panel led by Rosie O' Donnell premiered with stellar ratings in September which quickly dropped over the course of two months. 

Because of this dramatic drop in ratings, ABC producers are allegedly planning to bring back Behar and Shepherd in attempt to increase ratings for 'The View', says the Daily Mail.

The Daily Mail also reports that Behar and Shepherd's alleged return to the daytime show will be executed behind O' Donnell's back. 

Though ABC producers initially invited O'Donnell back to "The View" to increase ratings, a recent focus group conducted by ABC reveals that since O'Donnell's return, viewers feel that the show has become "too serious," according to the Daily Mail.

Younger viewers in the 18 to 34 demographic are no longer attracted to the seriousness of "The View" and are now turning towards more pop-culture infused shows such as "The Wendy Williams Show" and the current number one rated daytime show, "The Real." 

O'Donnell is famously known to be against discussing pop culture topics, while Shepherd and Behar often discussed various stories in pop culture during their time on "The View."

"That's why they're talking to Sherri about returning," says The Daily Mail source. "She brought a fun, energetic spirit to the show and loved talking about the Kardashians and reality TV."

The source also adds that, "Despite Rosie's reluctance to discuss that type of stuff, she doesn't have much room to fight it now that the ratings have dropped so badly."

Though Shepherd and Behar have yet to confirm their return to the daytime show, Shepherd did tease fans about the show on "Twitter," the Hollywood Life reports. 

Shepherd tweeted that she would discuss returning to "The View" during an upcoming interview on "The Steve Harvey Show."

Meanwhile, Behar has yet to make any announcement about "The View." Instead, she's been promoting her one woman show, "Me, My Mouth and I."

"The View's" current hosting panel includes Rosie O' Donnell, Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie Perez, and Nicolle Wallace.
