Comedian Joy Behar just spoke a sweet tribute to late The View creator and legendary journalist Barbara Walters, who died in 2022 at age 93.

The 82-year-old longtime View panelist — who helped Walters launch the show as part of the original cohost lineup in 1997 — honored Walters on Friday's live broadcast, as she segued away from a shady conversation about past drama between the cast and into a tease for an upcoming special edition of 20/20, the news program Walters appeared on for decades.

"Don't miss Countdown to the Oscars With Robin Roberts, a special edition of 20/20 tonight at 8 p.m. eastern on ABC," Behar said in the on-air tease, which saw her enunciate the title, 20/20, similar to the way Walters famously did. "I did that for Barbara Walters. 20/20!"

Sara Haines jumped in to observe, "I heard it! I heard it!" before Behar threw the show to a commercial break.

Moments earlier, Behar also paid tribute to The View's iconic lineage of cohost tension, as the panelists (and guest cohost Ariana DeBose) engaged in a Hot Topics chat about The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills criticizing each other's finances.

After cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin said it's "tacky to talk about money" amid friend groups, Behar asked, "Have we ever gone that low? I've been here 28 years. Has this panel ever gone that low?"

Griffin laughed, while legal expert Sunny Hostin turned her head to the side. DeBose smirked and picked up her mug to sip from it, before Haines quipped, "Maybe!"

The moment came days after Behar reflected last week on past "mean" cohosts who sat at the table with her over the last three decades.

Behar said on the Feb. 21 telecast that she can't spot "who's mean" to her in any given moment — "even at this table," she said. Griffin, with whom Behar has clashed in the past, said that "no one at this table has been mean to you," prompting Behar to joke, "Not now!"

While Behar didn't name specific examples, ex-View star Elisabeth Hasselbeck publicly criticized her former colleague amid Behar's observations about Carrie Underwood's decision to perform at Donald Trump's second presidential inauguration in January.

"That @TheView @JoyVBehar needs to simmer down off my friend," Hasselbeck wrote in January on X, also sharing a note speculating on where she would eventually speak about her expanded thoughts on Behar "calling Carrie Underwood Un-American." However, Behar didn't use the phrase "un-American" in her assessment of Underwood.

The View airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on ABC.
