DeVito Sorry for Well-lubricated View Visit
Shortly after appearing on Wednesday's The View admittedly sloshed, Danny DeVito offered an olive branch to queen bee Barbara Walters, "to apologize for anything that could be construed as unfortunate," his publicist tells ABC News. DeVito's appearance on the talker followed an all-nighter of partying and downing limoncello with pal George Clooney, and was peppered with such colorful anecdotes as the time he and wife Rhea Perlman set the White House's Lincoln bedroom a-rocking.

It was the 2nd best segment in the history of The View. [No. 1 is Star getting nailed in the head with a football and falling down.]
Danny made me think of a new idea for a show called "The View with Drunk Celebrities". Liquor them up and let them talk. ![]<img border=](http://community.tvguide.com/images/emoticons/devil.gif) ">

To me it was in the funny but sad category. Does Danny Devito have a publicist? If so, why did they let him go on the air?
I think Devito is lucky everyone is putting it in the "crazy, party boy" category. If any other actor had shown up drunk for a segment, I'm not sure they'd be treated with such generosity.

I don't know why but he didn't seem all that out of control to me. He was pretty funny, got off some good quips and seemed tired but lucid. I think that if no one with inside info had said anything few people would have thought anything of it.
What was a drag was the news/infotainment shows only showing the part where he was making faces. In context of the whole interview that bit wasn't at all what the bites made it appear to be. It was a very conscious comedy bit and not an indication of how sober DeVito may or may not have been.
