The lighthearted moment was a welcome distraction from the on-set drama the show has seen lately.
Just days earlier, The View's Whoopi Goldberg not only lashed out at fellow co-hosts Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar and Ana Navarro, but at the live studio audience as well.
It started as the panel was in a heated discussion over gun rights.
When Whoopi was about to go to commercial, Sunny wanted to add one more thing.
So the 66-year-old told her she had to do it “quickly,” but it turned into the hosts all jumping in once again to share their own thoughts.
Eventually, it got to be too much and Whoopi cut them all off.
She blasted them, saying: “Okay, I can’t do this with y’all!
“I gotta go. I can’t do it anymore.”
The head moderator took the show to its commercial break, and she then turned her attention toward the studio audience and told them they could “clap” now.
Shocked, one fan tweeted about Whoopi demanding things from the audience, writing: “What was that? You can clap?”
Another was surprised by the moderator’s annoyance with her co-hosts, with “Whoopi saying she can't do that with them anymore!”
Fans have been vowing to boycott the show and demand Whoopi be “fired” for her “tone deaf” comments.

In January, Whoopi got into hot water with fans after she claimed the Holocaust was not "about race."
She was briefly suspended from the talk show, though viewers haven't forgiven the actress for her remark.
A petition circulated on , insisting that Whoopi be let go of her hosting duties for her "repulsive verbiage and actions."
Several concerned viewers, including the Democratic National Committee, started the petition, which states: "Whoopi has made numerous remarks about race that have ruffled feathers. But her most recent comment attacking victims of the holocaust and the entire Jewish community are disgusting.
